Develop a demonstration to show how weight is not the same thing as mass

Chemistry
1 answer:
maksim [4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer with Explanation:

"Mass" and "weight" should never be used interchangeably with each other. Mass refers to the <u>total amount of matter</u><u> that can be measured in an object, </u>while weight refers to the<u> measure of the</u><u> force of gravity</u><u> that is acting on the object's mass.</u>

The mass of an object is<u> constant</u> (meaning, it doesn't change even if the object will be placed on another location) while the weight of an object relies on the <em>force of gravity.</em> So, this means that your mass on Earth and on the moon are identical, however, your weight on Earth and on the Moon are different. You will weigh lesser on the Moon because it has a lesser surface gravity than that of Earth.

So, this explains the answer.

Write a balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of C3H7BO3, a gasoline additive. The products of combustion are C
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

2C₃H₇BO₃ + 8O₂ → 6CO₂ + 7H₂O + B₂O₃.

Explanation:

  • For balancing a chemical equation, we should apply the law of conversation of mass. It states that the no. of atoms in the reactants side is equal to that of the products side.

So, the balanced equation:

<em>2C₃H₇BO₃ + 8O₂ → 6CO₂ + 7H₂O + B₂O₃.</em>

It is clear that 2.0 moles of C₃H₇BO₃ is completely burned in 8 m oles of oxygen and produce 6 moles of CO₂, 7 moles of H₂O and 1 mole of B₂O₃.

Enter a balanced equation for the complete combustion of liquid C3H7OH. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all
Vlad1618 [11]

2 C₃H₇OH (l) +  9 O₂ (g) → 6 CO₂ (g) + 8 H₂O (g)

Explanation:

To balance the chemical equation the number of atoms of each element entering the reaction have to be equal to the number of atoms of each element leaving the reaction, in order to conserve the mass.

Bellow we have the balanced chemical equation of the complete combustion of C₃H₇OH:

C₃H₇OH (l) +  (9/2) O₂ (g) → 3 CO₂ (g) + 4 H₂O (g)

to have integer coefficients  we multiply the reaction with 2:

2 C₃H₇OH (l) +  9 O₂ (g) → 6 CO₂ (g) + 8 H₂O (g)

where:

(l) - liquid

(g) - gaseous

what is the diffrence between displacement ans double displacement reactions write equations for these reactions
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Single Displacement reaction  

In a displacement reaction, a more reactive element replaces a less reactive element from a compound.

Change in colour takes place with no precipitate forms.

Metals react with the salt solution of another metal.

Examples:

2KI + Cl2 → 2KCl + I2

CuSO4 + Zn → ZnSO4 + Cu

Double displacement reaction

In a double displacement reaction, two atoms or a group of atoms switch places to form new compounds.

Precipitate is formed.

Salt solutions of two different metals react with each other.

Examples:  

Na2SO4 + BaCl2 → BaSO4 + 2NaCl

2KBr + BaCl2 → 2KCl + BaBr2

Pliz, answer my this all question​

18. a) The materials that are in contact. The two materials and the nature of their surfaces. ...
b) The force pushing the two surfaces together. Pushing the surfaces together causes the more of the asperities to come together and increases the surface area in contact with each other.

19. the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity.

20. According to Newton's third law of motion, action force is equal to reaction but acts on two different bodies and in opposite directions. When a horse pushes the ground, the ground reacts and exerts a force on the horse in the forward direction. This force is able to overcome friction force of the cart and it moves.

21. The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

22. R12. Mass is more fundamental because it is an intrinsic property of an object. Weight varies with location depending upon the acceleration due to gravity eg. for a mass m = 10kg on Earth it`s weight is W = mg = 10 x 10 = 100N.
