A glass marble is rubbed against a piece of silk. As a result the piece of fabric acquires extra electrons. What happens to the

glass marble?

Answer:

This is an electrostatic attraction. Since the fabric silk has acquired negative charges (electrons), the marble would have lost the same number of electrons  to become positively charged.

Hence, there will be electrostatic force of attraction.

Answer:

There was an electron transfer where the marble has lost the same amount of electrons (being positively charged) that the piece of silk has gained (being negatively charged).

Explanation:

As a result of this transfer of electrons and the charges induced in the objects they will attract.

When a body is endowed with electrical properties, that is, it acquires electrical charges, it is said to have been electrified.

Electrification is one of the phenomena that studies electrostatics.

To explain how static electricity originates, we must consider that matter is made of atoms, and atoms of charged particles, a nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons. Normally, matter is neutral (not electrified), it has the same number of positive and negative charges.

Some atoms are easier to lose their electrons than others. If a material tends to lose some of its electrons when it comes into contact with another, it is said to be more positive in the Triboelectric series. If a material tends to capture electrons when it comes into contact with another material, that material is more negative in the triboelectric series.

What is 1 major discovery in cosmology that relies on improvement in existing apparatus?
never [62]
The most dramatic astronomical development of the century thus far is the detection of gravitational waves from merging black holes at a distance of 400 Mpc, during the first science run of the advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory.

The telescope was also very important. Galileo Galilei was the first person to use a telescope to look at celestial bodies (though he did not invent the telescope) and discovered the four brightest moons of Jupiter, proving that there are things in the Solar System that don't revolve around the Sun.

Physical cosmology is the branch of physics and astrophysics that deals with the study of the physical origins and evolution of the Universe. It also includes the study of the nature of the Universe on a large scale. In its earliest form, it was what is now known as "celestial mechanics", the study of the heavens.

Hope this helps you :)

The formula of nitrobenzene is c6h5no2. the molecular weight of this compound is __________ amu.
mafiozo [28]

The molecular weight of a given compound would simply the sum of the molar weights of each component.

 

The molar masses of the elements are:

C = 12 amu

H = 1 amu

N = 14 amu

O = 16 amu

where 1 amu = 1 g / mol

 

Since there are 6 C, 5 H, 1 N and 2 O, therefore the total molecular weight is:

molecular weight = 6 (12 amu) + 5 (1 amu) + 1 (14 amu) + 2 (16 amu)

molecular weight = 123 amu

 

Therefore the molecular weight of nitrobenzene is 123 amu or which is exactly equivalent to 123 g / mol.
