This follows the law of conservation of momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of object. 
Momentum = mass(m) x velocity(v) 
law of conservation of momentum means that the total momentum of system before the collision of 2 objects is equal to the total momentum after the collision 
Before the collision total momentum 
= m1v1 + m2v2
m1 = 2 kg
v1 = 2 m/s
m2 = 6 kg
v2 = 0 m/s
substituting the values in the equation 
total momentum before = (2 kg x 2 m/s) + (6 kg x 0 m/s)
total momentum = 4 kgm/s
after the collision the 2 objects stick together and have a common velocity 
total momentum after the collision  = (6 kg + 2 kg)x V  = 8V
V = speed of the conglomerate particle

since total momentum before is equal to total momentum after
8V = 4
V = 2 m/s
speed of conglomerate particle is 2 m/s

[HELP PLEASE] Describe the difference between the ways valence electrons are rearranged when forming ionic bonds and covalent bo
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.

Which element, if combined with chlorine, will have the greatest attraction for the chlorine electrons? N P As
Mumz [18]
Basically, the answer for this would be N or NITROGEN. If we combine nitrogen with chlorine, what happens is that, it can attract more chlorine electrons towards itself. The reason is that, nitrogen is considered more electronegative compared to chlorine. So best answer for this is the first option.

Predict the sign of the entropy change,Delta S, for each of the following reactions:The signs are either going to be pos or nega
algol [13]

Answer: a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s):  negative

b)  CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g) : positive

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g): positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s) : negative

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g):  positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g) : positive.

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)

As ions are moving to solid form , randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

b) CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

As 2 moles of reactants are converted to 4 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s)

As gas is changing to solid, randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

As 7 moles of reactants are converted to 8 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.
