A sample of chloroform is found to contain 12.0 g of carbon, 106.4 g of chlorine, and 1.01 g of hydrogen. If a second sample of

GREYUIT [131]

Given:

Sample 1:

Chloroform is $CHCl_{3}$

12 g Carbon

1.01 g Hydrogen

106.4 g Cl

Sample 2:

30.0 g of Carbon

Solution:

mass of chloroform from sample 1:

12 + 1.01 +106.4 =119.41 g

Now, for the total mass of chloroform in sample 2:

mass of chloroform $\times$ $\frac{given mass of carbon}{mass of carbon atom}$

mass of chloroform = 119.41 $\times$ $\frac{30}{12}$ = 298.53 g

1. James drives 400 km in 5 hours to his grandmothers. What are the units for speed going to be?

Airida [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. Speed is calculated as the ratio of distance and time. Hence, Jame's speed can be calculated as:

400/5 km/hr = 80 km/hr

The unit for the speed would be km/hr. This can also be converted to m/s:

80 km = 80,000 m

1 hr = 3,600 s

80 km/hr = 80,000/3600 m/s = 22.22 m/s

2. Since James drove 400 km in 5 hours, the distance he drove is 400 km.

3. The time it took for James to get there is 5 hours.

A uniform rod is set up so that it can rotate about a perpendicular axis at one of its ends. The length and mass of the rod are

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

0.231 N

Explanation:

To get from rest to angular speed of 6.37 rad/s within 9.87s, the angular acceleration of the rod must be

$\alpha = \frac{\theta}{t} = \frac{6.37}{9.87} = 0.6454 rad/s^2$

If the rod is rotating about a perpendicular axis at one of its end, then it's momentum inertia must be:

$I = \frac{mL^2}{3} = \frac{1.27*0.847^2}{3} = 0.303kgm^2$

According to Newton 2nd law, the torque required to exert on this rod to achieve such angular acceleration is

$T = I\alpha = 0.303*0.6454 = 0.196 Nm$

So the force acting on the other end to generate this torque mush be:

$F = \frac{T}{L} = \frac{0.196}{0.847} = 0.231 N$

While skateboarding at 19 km/h, Alana throws a tennis ball at 11 km/h to her friend Oliver. If Alana is the reference frame, the

statuscvo [17]

When Alana moving 19km/h, a stationary object will be perceived by her as moving toward her with 19km/h velocity. If the object is not stationary(velocity isn't zero), the speed will increase by the object velocity.

the relative speed of the tennis ball=
the speed of Alana + true speed of the tennis ball
19km/h+ 11km/h= 30km/h

Magnesium (Mg) has 12 protons and an atomic mass of 24. How many neutrons does magnesium have?

JulijaS [17]

An atom is made up of three different particles, which are proton, neutron and electron. The proton and the neutron are located in the nucleus of the atom and they make up mass of the atom. The electron orbit around the nucleus. The proton is positively charged while the electron is negatively charged, thus, for the atom to remain neutral, the number of proton and electron in an atom must be equal. The neutron has no charge.
The atomic mass of an element = number of proton + number of neutron
Atomic mass of magnesium= 24
Number of proton = 12
Therefore, number of neutron = 24 - 12 = 12.
Thus, the number of neutron = 12.
