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.

what does a large positive standard cell potential imply about the spontenty of the redox reaction occuring in teh cell
marta [7]

Answer : E cell standard is the potential difference between the two electrodes under standard conditions. Overall tendency for the redox reaction to occur spontaneously. A large positive E cell means the reaction is more spontaneous, and a negative E cell indicates a non spontaneous reaction.

If hydrogen were used as a fuel, it could be burned according to the following reaction: H2(g)+1/2O2(g)→H2O(g). Use average bond
serious [3.7K]
The deltaHrxn = -243 kJ/mol the deltaHrxn of CH4(methane) = -802 kJ/mol 

The fuel that yields more energy per mole is METHANE. The negative sign merely signifies the release of energy. Thus, 802 kJ/mol is greater than 243 kJ/mol.

The fuel that yields more energy per gram is HYDROGEN. Here is the computation:
deltaHrxn = (-243 kJ/mol)(1 mol/2.016 g H2)  <span>= -120.535714286 kJ/g or -121 kJ/g

</span>deltaHrxn of CH4(methane) = (-802 kJ/mol)(1 mol/16.04 g) 
<span>= -50 kJ/g 
</span>
As discussed the negative sign serves as the symbol of released energy. Thus, 121 is greater than 50.

What is the main reason for using data table to collect data
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Data tables help you keep information organized. If you're collecting data from an experiment or scientific research, saving it in a data table will make it easier to look up later. Data tables can also help you make graphs and other charts based on your information.

What if you broke off a piece of cement (or bread) so that it was only half the volume of the original piece? What would happen
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The mass is also half of the mass of the original piece

Explanation:

Recall that the volume of a substance is defined as mass/volume. The density of substances is a constant. Hence, if a break off a piece of cement or bread such that what remains is only half the volume of the original piece, the mass of the new piece must also reduce to half of the mass of the original piece so that the volume of the material will remain constant.

Hence the answer above.
