Answer:

------ At point A, the skateboarder’s energy is all potential since she is high up (PE = mgh), and gravity has the potential to pull her down. She isn't moving, so she doesn't have velocity. Therefore, she doesn't have kinetic energy. At point B, she is moving the fastest during her ride and is as close to the ground as the ramp allows. Thus, her potential energy has been turned into kinetic energy due to her velocity and lack of height. At point C, if she comes to a stop on the other side of the half-pipe, her kinetic energy has been turned back into potential energy since she is high up again.

------- Eventually, the friction between the wheels and the ground will cause the skateboard to stop. Each time she goes back and forth, she will lose some of her initial energy from her drop-in, as long as she doesn't push off the sides at all.

A sample of gas at 301 Kelvin and 1.5 atmospheres has a density of 3.90 g/L. What is the molar mass of this gas? Show all of the
meriva
PV = nRTP is pressure, V is volume in L, n is number of moles, R is the gas constant,and T is temperature in K

(1.5 atm)(1 L) = (n)(.08206)(301K)

n = .06 moles in one liter

If there are 3.9 grams in .06 moles then

1/.06 x 3.9 = 64.2 grams per mol

If a chemical reaction such as photosynthesis begins with 6 atoms of carbon C , how many atoms of carbon C should be in the prod
lara [203]

Answer:

Option B. 6 atoms of carbon

Explanation:

In <u><em>any chemical reaction</em></u>, atoms from reactant side and product side must be the same.

This is photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂  + 6H₂O  →  C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂

Identify the reactants and the products in this chemical equation.<br><br> 2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Fe₂O₃ and C are reactants

Fe and CO₂ are products

Explanation:

Reactants:

Chemical species that are present on left side of chemical reaction equation are called reactants.

Product:

Chemical species that are present on right side of chemical reaction equation are called product.

Chemical equation:

2Fe₂O₃ + 3C  →  4Fe + 3CO₂

In this reaction 2 mole of iron oxide is react with three moles of carbon and produced four moles of iron and three moles of carbon dioxide. There are equal numbers of atoms of all elements present on both side of chemical reaction so this reaction follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
