Elemental analysis of the unknown gas from part a revealed that it is 30.45% n and 69.55% o by mass. What is the molecular formu
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

the molecular formula for the gas is NO₂

Explanation:

since it contains

Nitrogen = n → 30.45%

Oxygen = o → 69.55%

and 30.45%+69.55% = 100% , then the gas only contains nitrogen and oxygen

Also we know that the proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  is

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  = moles of oxygen / moles of nitrogen

since

moles = mass / molecular weight

then for a sample of 100 gr of the unknown gas

mass of oxygen = 69.55%*100 gr = 69.55 gr

mass of Nitrogen = 30.45%*100 gr = 30.45 gr

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen = (mass of oxygen/ molecular weight)/(mass of nitrogen / molecular weight of nitrogen ) =  (69.55 gr/ 16 gr/mol) /( 30.45 gr /14 gr/mol) = 1.998 mol of O/ mol of N≈ 2 mol of O/ mol of N

therefore there are 2 atoms of oxygen per atom of nitrogen

thus the molecular formula for the gas is:

NO₂

What is the acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of itsthree engines can provide 100,000 n of force?
sergey [27]

The acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².

<h3>How to calculate acceleration?</h3>

The acceleration of a freight train can be calculated using the following formula:

Force = mass × acceleration

According to this question, a 600,000kg freight train can produce 100,000N of force. The acceleration is as follows:

100,000 = 600,000 × a

100,000 = 600,000a

a = 0.167m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².

7. Two bikes travelling in the same direction move at a speed of 30 km/hr. The bikes are separated by a distance of 5 km. What w
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Call the bike on the right A

Call the bike on the left B

The car begins it's time when it passes A

4 minutes later, it passes B.

But B has moved in 4 minutes and that is the key to the problem.

How far has B moved.

t = 4 minutes = 4/60 hours = 1/15 of an hour.

d = ?

rate = 30 km / hr

d = r * t

d = 30 km/hr * 1/15 hours = 2 km

The distance between the bikes is 5 km.

So the car has traveled 5 - 2 = 3 km

d = 3 km

r = ?

t = 4 minutes = 1/15 hour

r = d/t = 3/(1/15)= 3 / 0.066666666  = 45 km/hr.
