Answer:

coal is made from compressed plant matter and how exactly did plants grow on the surface of an ocean. (as there is no land mass beneath the arctic.)

Explanation:

it would be like finding a fly in an ice cube to simplify it.

The final charge on each of the three separated spheres in part (b) is +3.0 μC. How many electrons would have to be added to one

marishachu [46]

Answer:

$1.873\times 10^{13}$ electrons should be added to one of these spheres to make it electrically neutral.

Explanation:

Total charge on each sphere = +3.0 μC = $3\times 10^{-6} C$

$1 \mu C=10^{-6} C$

In order to neutralize the positive charge equal magnitude of negative charge is to be added.

Total charge electrons, Q= -3.0 μC = $-3\times 10^{-6} C$

Number of electrons = n

Charge on a single electron, e = $-1.602\times 10^{-19} C$

Q = n × e

$-3\times 10^{-6} C=n\times (-1.602\times 10^{-19} C)$

$n=\frac{-3\times 10^{-6} C}{-1.602\times 10^{-19} C}=1.873\times 10^{13}$

$1.873\times 10^{13}$ electrons should be added to one of these spheres to make it electrically neutral.

If 11g of a gas occupies 5.6dm'3at s.t.p., calculate it's vapour density (1.0mol of a gas occupies 22.4dm'3at s.t.p.).

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

${ \boxed{ \bf{vapour \: density = 2 \times molecular \: mass}}} \\{ \tt{ PV= (\frac{m}{ m_{r}}) RT}} \\ { \tt{3 \times 5.6 = \frac{11}{m _{r}} \times 0.0831 \times 273}} \\ { \tt{m _{r} = 14.85 \: g}} \\ \\ { \bf{vapour \: density = 2 \times m _{r}}} \\ = 2 \times 14.85 \\ = 29.7 \: { \tt{g {dm}^{ - 3} }}$

Please use the below balanced equation to answer this question. 2H2(g) + O2(g) -> 2H2O(l) How many grams of water wil

Blizzard [7]

At STP (standard temperature and pressure conditions), 1 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L
This rule is applied to O₂
22.4 L volume occupied by 1 mol
Therefore 83.4 L occupied by - 1/ 22.4 x 83.4 = 3.72 mol
stoichiometry of O₂ to H₂O is 1:2
then the number of moles of water produced - 3.72 mol x 2= 7.44 mol
mass of water produced - 7.44 mol x 18.01 g/mol = 134.1 g
correct answer is D

Is this showing a lunar or solar eclipse? Explain what is happening from the viewpoint of Earth.

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Solar eclipse

Explanation:

A solar eclipse occurs when a portion of the Earth is engulfed in a shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks sunlight. This occurs when the Sun, Moon and Earth are aligned. Such alignment coincides with a new moon indicating the Moon
