F. <em>None of the above </em>

<em>No O atoms are present</em> as reacting substances, only O_2 and H_2O molecules.

O_2 + 2H_2O + 2e^(-) → 4OH^(-)

We must use <em>oxidation numbers</em> to decide whether oxygen or water is the substance reduced.

The oxidation number of O changes from 0 in O_2 to -2 in OH^(-).

A decrease in oxidation number is <em>reduction</em>, so O_2 is the substance  reduced.

The oxidation number of O is -2 in both H_2O and OH^(-), so water is <em>neither oxidized nor reduced</em>.

marysya [2.9K]

The mass of the product is <em>98.78 g.</em>

The word equation is

aluminum + chlorine → product

20.00 g + 98.78 g → <em>x</em> g

If each reactant is completely consumed, the <em>Law of conservation of Mass </em>tells us the mass of the product must be 98.78 g.

Answer:

a. 45×10³ kg

b. 1.25 kg

c. 5443200 s

d. 2.69×10⁻⁴ m/s²

e. 2.57×10⁻⁶N

f. 7.48×10⁻³ m /s²

g. 2.45 Pa

h. 10 m/s

Explanation:

The SI units are: kg, m, s, N, K, A, Pa, J and cd

a. 1 g is the mass for 1 cm³. We convert the m³ to cm³

45 m³. 1×10⁶ cm³ / 1 m³ = 45×10⁶ cm³

By the way, 45×10⁶ cm³ = 45×10⁶ g

We convert the g to kg →  45×10⁶ g . 1 kg / 1000 g = 45×10³ kg

b. As 1 g = 1 cm³,  we convert the cm³ to g and then, the g to kg

1250 cm³ = 1250 g → 1250 g . 1kg / 1000 g = 1.25 kg

c. 1 day has 24 hours; 1 hour has 60 minutes; 1 minute has 60 seconds

1 hour has 3600 s. Then 24 h . 3600 s / 1 h = 86400 s

86400 s/d. 63 d = 5443200 s

d. 1 min² = 3600 s²

97 cm / 3600 s² = 0.0269 cm/s²  / 100 = 2.69×10⁻⁴ m/s²

e. 927 g.cm / min² / 3600 s² = 0.2575 g.cm/s² → dyn

We need to convert dyn to N

1 dyn = 10⁻⁵N → 0.2575  dyn . 10⁻⁵N / 1dyn = 2.57×10⁻⁶N

f. 1 m/s² = 12960 km/h²

12960 km/h² . 1 m/s² / 97 km/h² = 7.48×10⁻³ m /s²

g. 2500 g/cm² . 1kg / 1000 g = 2.5 kg/cm²

1 Pa = 1.02kg/cm²

2.5 kg/cm² . 1 Pa / 1.02 kg/cm² = 2.45 Pa          

h. 1 h = 3600 s

36 km / 3600 s = 0.01 km /s → 0.01 km . 1000 m / 1 km = 10

= 10 m/s
