how did the occurrence of the supernova help support galileo's view that earth was not the center of the universe

1 answer:

3 0

<span>The supernova of 1604 was observed in Padua on 10 October 1604 but on account of cloudy weather Galileo did not see it until a few days later. The supernova created great excitement and Galileo, who taught mathematics and astronomy at the University, was asked to give three public lectures that were attended by a large audience. In this paper we show how Galileo explained the nature of parallax in order to demonstrate that the new star was well beyond the Moon. We also consider his attempt to determine the nature of the star, and the amusing pamphlet that he penned to lampoon professional philosophers who denied that new stars could appear in the heaven

I have 2 samples of solid chalk (aka calcium carbonate). Sample A has a total mass of 4.12 g and Sample B has a total mass of 19

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

A) Sample B has more calcium carbonate molecules

Explanation:

M = Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100.0869 g/mol

$N_A$ = Avogadro's number = $6.022\times 10^{23}\ \text{mol}^{-1}$

For the 4.12 g sample

Moles of a substance is given by

$n=\dfrac{m}{M}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{4.12}{100.0869}\\\Rightarrow n=0.0411\ \text{mol}$

Number of molecules is given by

$nN_A=0.0411\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=2.48\times 10^{22}\ \text{molecules}$

For the 19.37 g sample

$n=\dfrac{19.37}{100.0869}\\\Rightarrow n=0.193\ \text{mol}$

Number of molecules is given by

$nN_A=0.193\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=1.16\times 10^{23}\ \text{molecules}$

$1.16\times 10^{23}\ \text{molecules}>2.48\times 10^{22}\ \text{molecules}$

So, sample B has more calcium carbonate molecules.

The ratio of the elements of carbon, oxygen, calcium atoms, ions, has to be same in both the samples otherwise the samples cannot be considered as calcium carbonate. Same is applicable for impurities. If there are impurites then the sample cannot be considered as calcium carbonate.

How can I explain that orange juice is a homogeneous mixture ?

Masteriza [31]

Answer: It is usually separated from tea leaves by filtration. B Because the composition of the solution is uniform throughout, it is a homogeneous mixture. A Orange juice contains particles of solid (pulp) as well as liquid; it is not chemically pure.
