Answer:

But why should it even <u>matter</u>?

Explanation:

Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains, while Weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object.

The Mass of an object doesn't change when an object's location changes. Weight, on the otherhand does change with location.

Hope this helps!!

Answer:

Matter is measured in mass and not weight because

W=mg

Where m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

So we measure matter in mass because it only occupies space and there is no affect of acceleration due to gravity on it

Answer:

Nothing will happen as long as the magnitude of charges remains same...

Explanation:

We know that protons are 1836 times more massive than electrons but they have same magnitude of charge overall. So, if we reverse the polarities the system would still be stable as long as the magnitudes of charges are stable and vice versa.

In the oxidation of iron; how many grams of iron (III) oxide will be produced from 6.20 mol of Fe?
Flura [38]

Answer:

496 g of Fe₂O₃.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

4Fe + 3O₂ —> 2Fe₂O₃

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Fe reacted to produce 2 moles of Fe₂O₃.

Therefore, 6.20 moles of Fe will react to produce = (6.20 × 2)/4 = 3.1 moles of Fe₂O₃

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 3.1 moles of Fe₂O₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of Fe₂O₃ = 3.1 moles

Molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = (56 × 2) + (3×16)

= 112 + 48

= 160 g/mol

Mass of Fe₂O₃ =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Fe₂O₃ = 3.1 × 160

Mass of Fe₂O₃ = 496 g

Therefore, 496 g of Fe₂O₃ were produced from the reaction.
