I believe the answer you are looking for is Static Friction. Static Friction is the force that holds an object in place until it starts to move. Then it switches to rolling friction.

For example, if you have a 1/2 ton truck sitting in front of you and the truck is in neutral. (meaning it can roll if pushed). The truck is extremely hard to move at first. That is because static friction is holding it in place until the amount of force exceeds the limit of static friction.

So if we continue to push at the truck and you feel it starting to move, then once it starts moving it is much easier to push, that is because we moved past static friction to rolling friction. Rolling friction is what helps slow things down. If you roll a ball across a carpet floor it eventually comes to a stop.

What volume (in L) of oxygen will be required to produce 77.4 L of water vapor in the reaction below?
Inga [223]

Answer:

90.3 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water produced = 77.4 L

Volume of oxygen required = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂  →  4CO₂ + 6H₂O

It is known that,

1 mole = 22.414 L

There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L

There are 6 moles of water = 6×22.414 = 134.5 L

Now we will compare:

                               H₂O           :              O₂    

                               134.5         :              156.9

                                 77.4         :             156.9/134.5×77.4 =90.3 L

So for the production of 77.4 L water 90.3 L oxygen is required.

0.500 mile of potassium oxide is dissolved in enough water to make 2.00 L of solution. Calculate the molarity of this solution (
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The correct question is as follows: 0.500 moles of potassium oxide is dissolved in enough water to make 2.00 L of solution. Calculate the molarity of this solution (plz help!)

Answer: The molarity of this solution is 0.25 M.

Explanation:

Molarity is the number of moles of a substance divided by volume in liter.

As it is given that there are 0.5 moles of potassium oxide in 2.00 L of water so, the molarity of this solution is calculated as follows.

Molarity = \frac{moles}{volume(in L)}\\= \frac{0.5 moles}{2.00 L}\\= 0.25 M

Thus, we can conclude that molarity of this solution is 0.25 M.

He balanced equation for the reaction of acetylene, c2h2, and oxygen in an acetylene torch is 2 c2h2 + 5 o2 → 4 co2 + 2 h2o. in
pickupchik [31]
Answer: 0.4 g

Explanation:

1) Balanced chemical equation:

2) 2C2H2 + 5 O2 → 4CO2 + 2 H2O

3) mole ratios:

2 mol C2h2 : 5 mol O2

4) Convert 0.13 g C2H2 into number of moles

n = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass C2H2 = 2 *12g/mol + 2*1 g/mol = 26 g/mol

n = 0.13 g / 26 g/mol = 0.005 mol

5) Set the proportion with the unknown

5 mol O2             x
----------------- = ---------------
2 mol C2H2      0.005 mol C2H2

x = 0.005 mol C2H2 * 5 mol O2 / 2 mol C2H2 = 0.0125 mol O2

6) Convert 0.0125 mol O2 to grams

mass = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

mass = 0.0125 mol * 32 g/mol = 0.4 g

Answer: 0.4 g

1. carbon cycle
marin [14]

Explanation:

1. carbon cycle

all of the physical processes and chemical reactions that result in the movement of carbon between the biosphere (living forms) and the geosphere (water, earth, and atmosphere)

  Carbon cycle is the cyclic movement of carbon in various form on earth. This process entails both physical and chemical processes that ensures that carbon moves in different spheres of the earth. Carbon is one of the most important element in life. It is the building block of most organic processes on earth.

2. carbon footprint

a calculation that considers an individual's contribution to the process of global warming based on activities leading to greenhouse gas production

Carbon footprint is important in mapping the quota of carbon emitted into the atmosphere

It is the amount of greenhouse gases contributed into the atmosphere by individuals.

3. global warming

an overall increase in world temperatures that may be caused by additional heat being trapped by greenhouse gases

   It is the overall increase in global temperature. It has severe consequences.

  Global warming results when greenhouse gases in the atmosphere traps outgoing radiation in an anomalous way.

4. greenhouse gas

components of the air mixture that trap infrared (heat) energy

 Greenhouse gases are gases that prevents long wave radiation from leaving the earth surface. They absorb the gases in turn, warming occurs on earth.
