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!

A certain drug has a half-life in the body of 3.5h. Suppose a patient takes one 200.Mg pill at :500PM and another identical pill
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The amount of drug left in his body at 7:00 pm is 315.7 mg.

Explanation:

First, we need to find the amount of drug in the body at 90 min by using the exponential decay equation:

N_{t} = N_{0}e^{-\lambda t}

Where:

λ: is the decay constant = ln(2)/t_{1/2}

t_{1/2}: is the half-life of the drug = 3.5 h

N(t): is the quantity of the drug at time t

N₀: is the initial quantity

After 90 min and before he takes the other 200 mg pill, we have:

N_{t} = 200e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{3.5 h}*90 min*\frac{1 h}{60 min}} = 148.6 mg

Now, at 7:00 pm we have:

t = 7:00 pm - (5:00 pm + 90 min) = 30 min

N_{t} = (200 + 148.6)e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{3.5 h}*30 min*\frac{1 h}{60 min}} = 315.7 mg    

Therefore, the amount of drug left in his body at 7:00 pm is 315.7 mg (from an initial amount of 400 mg).

I hope it helps you!

Write the Lewis structure for the following<br> H20<br> So2
Tasya [4]

See the sketch attached.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The Lewis structure of a molecule describes

  • the number of bonds it has,
  • the source of electrons in each bond, and
  • the position of any lone pairs of electrons.

Atoms are most stable when they have eight or no electrons in their valence shell (or two, in case of hydrogen.)

  • Each oxygen atom contains six valence electrons. It demands <em>two</em> extra electrons to be chemically stable.
  • Each sulfur atom contains six valence electrons. It demands <em>two </em> extra electrons to be chemically stable.
  • Each hydrogen atom demands <em>one</em> extra electron to be stable.

H₂O contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. It would take an extra 2 + 2  × 1 = 4 electrons for all its three atoms are stable. Atoms in an H₂O would achieve that need by sharing electrons. It would form a total of 4 / 2 = 2 O-H bonds.

Each O-H bond contains one electron from oxygen and one from hydrogen. Hydrogen has no electron left. Oxygen has six electrons. Two of them have went to the two O-H bonds. The remaining four become 4 / 2 = 2 lone pairs. The lone pairs repel the O-H bonds. By convention, they are placed on top of the two H atoms.

Similarly, atoms in a SO₂ molecule demands an extra 2 × 2 + 2 = 6 electrons for its three atoms to become chemically stable. It would form 6 / 2 = 3 chemical bonds. Loops are unlikely in molecules without carbon. As a result, one of the two O atoms would form two bonds with the S atom while the other form only one.

Atoms are unstable with an odd number of valence electrons. The S atom in SO₂ would have become unstable if it contribute one electron to each of the three bond. It would end up with 3 × 2 + 3 = 9 valence electrons. One possible solution is that it contributes two electrons in one particular bond. One of the three bonds would be a coordinate covalent bond, with both electrons in that bond from the S atom. In some textbooks this type of bonds are also known as dative bonds.

Dots and crosses denotes the origin of electrons in a bond. Use the same symbol for electrons from the same atom. Electrons from the oxygen atoms O are shown in blue in the sketch. They don't have to be colored.

What types of chemical<br> reactions can change a toxic<br> chemical into one that is less<br> toxic
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Very toxic materials are substances that may cause significant harm or even death to an individual if even very small amounts enter the body.There are a number of very toxic materials that may be used in workplaces. Some examples include carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, chlorine and sodium cyanide

Explanation:

here are generally four types of toxic entities; chemical, biological, physical and radiation: Chemical toxicants include inorganic substances such as, lead, mercury, hydrofluoric acid, and chlorine gas, and organic compounds such as methyl alcohol, most medications, and toxins.
