The purpose of a switch in a series circuit is to make it easy to open or close the electrical circuit, turning the flow of electricity on or off. A light bulb in a series circuit is used to determine whether or not electricity is flowing.

Automotive airbags inflate when a sample of sodium azide, NaN3, is very rapidly decomposed.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

148 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the decomposition of sodium azide

2 NaN₃ ⇒ 2 Na + 3 N₂

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 95.8 g of N₂

The molar mass of N₂ is 28.01 g/mol.

95.8 g × 1 mol/28.01 g = 3.42 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of NaN₃ needed to form 3.42 moles of N₂

The molar ratio of NaN₃ to N₂ is 2:3. The moles of NaN₃ needed are 2/3 × 3.42 mol = 2.28 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 2.28 moles of NaN₃

The molar mass of NaN₃ is 65.01 g/mol.

2.28 mol × 65.01 g/mol = 148 g

Which of the following correctly describes a property of an atom?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

it has an equal number of neutrons and electrons

Explanation:

Number of protons always equal number of electron, but that's the case with a neutral atom. A neutral atom is an atom of any element that has no electric charge over it. This implies that it has same number of protons and electrons in it.

Compare S (secondary) waves and P (primary) waves. Why do they travel at different speeds?
Amanda [17]

S waves

  • These are shear waves .
  • The motion of the medium is perpendicular to  direction of propagation of the wave .
  • They can propagate only through solids and not through gases or liquids .
  • S waves are larger .
  • They travel with less speed .

P waves

  • These are compression waves .
  • These waves produces a force along the direction of propagation .
  • They can propagate through solids, gases and liquids.
  • P waves are smaller than s waves .
  • They travel with 60% greater speed than S waves .

P-waves travel 60% faster than S-waves on average because the interior part of the Earth does not react the same way as the s wave and P wave.
