The correct method would be multiplying the speed of light by the time it takes to travel from the moon to Earth. This is because:

S=So+V*t

In which:

S= space

So= space at the start (origin)

V=speed or velocity

t=time

By multiplying miles/second by seconds you get miles as a result.

Answer:

Multiply 186,282 by 1.3

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Speed at which the light travels = 186,282 miles/sec

Time taken for the light to travel from moon to earth = 1.3 sec

<u>To determine:</u>

Distance between earth and moon

<u>Explanation:</u>

Speed of an object is the ratio of the distance traveled by the time taken

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\\\\\Distance = Speed * Time\\In\ the\ given\ example\\\\Distance = 186,282 miles/sec * 1.3 sec = 242167 miles

Calculate the amount of heat needed to melt 99.9 g of solid acetic acid (HCH,CO2) and bring it to a temperature of 85.1 °C. Roun
Nadusha1986 [10]

Q = 1.161 J/kg of heat is required to melt 99.9 g of solid acetic acid (HCH,CO2). Q = mL(Latent heat is the energy emitted or absorbed by a body while changing it state ). (Latent heat is the energy released or absorbed by a body while changing it state ).

<h3>How to fix?</h3>

Apply the equation Q = mL where:

Energy is Q. (J)

m = Mass (g)

L = Acetic acid's latent heat of fusion 192(J/g) = J/g

Q is equal to 0.099 kg times 11.73 kj/mol.

Q = 1.161J/kg.

<h3>What is latent heat, and what varieties are there?</h3>

Latent heat is the amount of energy that a substance experiencing a change in state, such as ice turning into water or water turning into steam, can absorb or release while maintaining a constant temperature and pressure. Types: The material exists in three states: solid, liquid, and gaseous.

<h3>What does "sensible heat" mean?</h3>

Heat that can actually be felt is considered to be sensible heat. Instead of the phase shifting, energy is what causes the temperature to vary as it moves from one system to another. For instance, it warms the water instead of melting the ice.

Compare the polymerisation reaction used to produce poly(ethene) with the
butalik [34]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Polymerization is the process whereby two or more monomers link together to form a compound of high molecular mass called a polymer.

There are two kinds of polymers;

-Addition polymers

-Condensation polymers

Addition polymers are formed by the joining of two or more monomers  to form a polymer without the elimination of a small molecule.

Condensation polymers are formed by the joining of two or more molecules  to form polymers with the elimination of a small molecule.

The main difference between polyethene and polyester is that polyethene is an addition polymer while polyester is a condensation polymer.

In polyethene, ethene molecules are joined together having the repeating unit as [-CH2-CH2-]n.

In polyester, the polymer arises from the reaction of carboxylic acid and an alcohol and loss of water molecules.

Calculate the concentration of all species in a 0.160 m solution of h2co3.
enot [183]

             H₂CO₃ ⇔       HCO₃⁻   +     H⁺

I            0.160               0                 0

C            -x                  +x               +x

E          0.160-x          +x                +x

Ka1 = [HCO₃⁻][H⁺] / [H₂CO₃]

4.3 x 10⁻⁷ = x² / (0.160-x)   (x is neglected in 0.160-x = 0.160)

x² = 6.88 x 10⁻⁸

x = 2.62 x 10⁻⁴

             HCO₃⁻    ⇔            CO₃⁻²    +   H⁺

I          2.62 x 10⁻⁴               0                2.62 x 10⁻⁴

C          -x                            +x              +x

E       2.62 x 10⁻⁴ - x           +x              2.62 x 10⁻⁴ + x

Ka2 = [CO₃⁻²][H⁺] / [HCO₃⁻]

5.6 x 10⁻¹¹ = x(2.62 x 10⁻⁴ + x) / (2.62 x 10⁻⁴ - x)

x = 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹

Thus,

[H₂CO₃] = 0.160 - (2.62 x 10⁻⁴) = 0.16 M

[HCO₃⁻] = 2.62 x 10⁻⁴ - ( 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹) = 2.6 x 10⁻⁴ M

[CO₃⁻²] = 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹ M

[H₃O⁺] = 2.62 x 10⁻⁴ + 5.6 x 10⁻¹¹ = 2.6 x 10⁻⁴ M

[OH⁻] = 3.8 x 10⁻¹¹
