Your answer would be A, Spring A has more potential energy.

Potential energy is exactly what it sounds like - energy that has the potential to exist due to stressors, but doesn't yet. In this case, the spring is ready to jump back into its original position however it can't because of it still being stretched, therefore this tension is what creates potential energy.

When you measure potential energy, the one with greater of it is the one where it has more stress being placed on it. In this case, spring A is being stretched furthest so it has the most potential energy.

Hope this helped!

Determine the mass of 2.4 x 10^24 atoms of gold?​
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Mass = 785.9 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Atoms of gold = 2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms

Mass of gold = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the number of atoms into moles.

2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol/ 6.02 × 10²³ atoms

number of moles = 3.99 mol

Now we will determine the mass of gold.

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  3.99 mol × 196.97 g/mol

Mass = 785.9 g

A solution contains 22.4 g glucose (C6H12O6 ) dissolved in 0.500 L of water. What is the molality of the solution
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Molality is 0.25 m

Explanation:

Molality → Moles of solute / kg of solvent

We need the moles of solute → 0.124 moles

22.4 g . 1 mol / 180 g = 0.124 moles

We need the mass of solvent in kg. We determine the mass of solvent with density.

Density = Mass / Volume

Mass = Density . volume → 1 g/mL . 500 mL = 500 g

If we convert the mass in g to kg → 500 g . 1kg / 1000 g = 0.5 kg

In conclussion, molality → 0.124 mol / 0.5 kg = 0.25 m

4 FeCO3 + O2 --> 2 Fe2O3 + 4CO2
Andre45 [30]

The percentage yield of the reaction : 93.3%

Mass of FeCO₃ 2310.44 g

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The reaction equation is the chemical formula of reagents and product substances  

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products  

Reaction

4 FeCO₃ + O₂ ⇒ 2 Fe₂O₃ + 4CO₂

MW FeCO₃ : 115,854 g/mol

MW Fe₂O₃ : 159,69 g/mol

  • mol FeCO₃

\tt \dfrac{35}{115.854}=0.302

  • mol Fe₂O₃

\tt \dfrac{2}{4}\times 0.302=0.151

  • mass Fe₂O₃

\tt 0.151\times 159.69=24.113~g

  • percent yield

\tt \dfrac{22.5}{24.113}\times 100\%=93.3\%

mol of 1 kg Fe₂O₃ = 1000 g

\tt \dfrac{1000}{159.69}=6.262

mol of FeCO₃

\tt \dfrac{4}{2}\times 6.262=12.524

mass of FeCO₃

\tt 12.524\times 115.854=1450.955~g

a purity of 62.8%

\tt \dfrac{100}{62.8} \times 1450.955=2310.44~g

Draw and label the structure of a sodium atom showing the distribution of electrons​
Korolek [52]

Answer:

  • Please, find the drawing in the picture attached.

Explanation:

A simple model or drawing of the structure of an atom may be performed showing the electrons on the different energy levels (shells), plus the nucleons (protons and neutrons).

Then, you need the information on:

  • number of protons (atomic number)
  • electron configuration
  • number of neutrons

The first step is  to find the atomic number of the atom. You find that information in the periodic table, where the elements are show with their chemical symbol.

The chemical symbol of sodium is Na. It is located in the group (colum) 1 and period (raw) 3. There you find that the atomic number is 11. Hence your drawing must show 11 protons.

Since the atom is neutral, the number of electrons is also 11. So, you must place the electrons in the following energy levels or shells:

Main energy level      shell   number of electrons

n = 1                              K         2 (this is the maximum in this level)

n= 2                              L          8 (this is the maximun in this level)

n= 3                              M         1 (the maximum in this level is 18)

Now that you have the number of protons and the location of the electrons, you must determine the number of neutrons.

In the periodict table you will also find the atomic mass of the elements. The atomic mass of sodium is 22.990 amu. That means that most sodium atoms have mass number (number of protons plus neutrons) 23. Some isotopes will have less neutrons, but you can draw your model using the most typical isotope with 23 nucleons. This means, that the number of neutrons is 23 nucleons - 11 protons = 12 neutrons.
