Answer: B. 44.64 g

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Mass of reactants = mass of iron + mass of oxygen = mass of iron + 34.7 g

Mass of product = mass of iron oxide = 79.34 g

As Mass of reactants = Mass of product

mass of iron + 34.7 g = 79.34 g

mass of iron = 44.64 g

Thus 44.64 g of iron was used in the reaction

A train moving at 5 m/sec passed a track gang and then accelerated uniformly a rate of 1.2 m/sec/sec for 5 min. How far did the

Amanda [17]

Answer:

S = V0 t + 1/2 a t^2

S = 5 m/s * 300 s + 1/2 * 1.2 m/s * (300 s^2)

S = 1500 m + .6 * 90000 m = 55,500 m

Check: V0 = 5 m/s

V2 = V0 + a t = 5 + 1.2 * 300 = 365 m/s

Vav = (V1 + V2) / 2 = (5 + 365) / 2 = 185 m/s (note uniform motion)

S = 185 * 300 = 55,500 m

We calculated V2 above at 365 m/s the speed after 300 sec

Which of the following will cause an increase in gas pressure in a closed container?

Ludmilka [50]

C. Both A. and B.

Explanation:

Statement A. Reducing the volume is true because of Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at fixed temperature, the pressure p and the volume V are inversely proportional:

$pV=const.$

Therefore, when the volume V is reduced, the pressure p increases.

Statement B. Adding more gas is also true: in fact, if we add gas into the container, we will have more molecules of the gas hitting the wall of the container. But the pressure of a gas is exactly given by this: by the collision of the molecules against the wall of the container, so the more the molecules of gas, the greater the pressure.

What is meant by the statement,the linear expansivity of copper is 0.000017k

Aliun [14]

Answer:

The change in length per unit length per degree rise in temperature of copper is 0.000017k

Explanation:

Given that :

The linear expansivity of copper is 0.000017k. This simply means that ; for a given copper length, the length of such copper will increase by 0.000017k for every degree rose in temperature of the copper rod.

Therefore, the change in length per unit length per degree rise in temperature (k) is 0.000017
