What role did gravity play in the formation of our solar system?

Dominik [7]2 years ago

Answer:

Gravity helped to hold things in orbit and create the planets.

Explanation:

Scientist believe that the solar system started in a similar way to stars, from a nebula. They say that the it was a cloud of dust and gas called a nebula that contained mostly hydrogen and helium leftover from the "Big Bang"(which I have my arguments about.) They also say there were heavier elements. Gravity caused the nebula to shrink. As the nebula became smaller it had a rotation. As it got smaller it began to spin faster. The planets were formed by materials cooling off. As they were cooling off they began to clump together. Clumps collided with each other to make a bigger clump. Larger clumps would attract smaller clumps with their gravitational pull. Eventually the clumps started to form the planets and moons in today's solar system.

Stoichiometry <span>of the reaction:

</span><span>2 KClO</span>₃<span>    =    2 KCl  +   3 O</span>₂
  ↓                                      ↓
    
2 mole KClO₃ ----------> 3 mole O₂
2 mole KClO₃ ----------> ?

KClO₃ = 2 * 3 / 2

KClO₃ = 6 / 2

= 3 moles de KClO₃

hope this helps!

Balance the following chemical equation Na + Cl2 -&gt; NaCl and explain how the balanced equation models the law of conservation
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

2 Na + 1 Cl2 -> 2 NaCl

Explanation:

The answer is really simple, because if you have 1 nonmetal element that has a subscript of 2, you need to multiply the product and the first reactant by 2 to balance it.

The Bohr model of the atom suggest that the protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus and the electrons orbit the nucleus mu
kondaur [170]

Answer:

The Bohr model suggested that electrons orbited the nucleus in circular paths where as the modern model views the atom to consist of positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons.

Explanation:

In the modern model, the nucleus contains two sub-atomic particles, the protons which are positively charged and the neutrons which are not charged.According to Bohr's model,the electron in a hydrogen atom travel around the nucleus in a circular orbit. In the modern model, electrons do not move around nucleus around circular obits.

How i the ma number of an atom calculated? (1 point)
Bess [88]
Proton plus neutron is the correct answer. Protons and neutrons have a mass of 1 and electrons have a mass of 0. So in order to find the mass of an atom you need to add the number of protons and the number of neutrons.
