Summary of a trade-off between. Potential and kinetic energy

Chemistry

uranmaximum [27]3 years ago

Simply put, Potential energy is the "build up". If I had a ball on the top a 5ft slide, it would have potential energy, as long as it hasn't slid down yet.

If I had another ball on a 10ft slide, it would have twice the potential energy the first ball had.

What comes next is kinetic energy, which is the energy used when the object is moving, like the ball as it goes down the slide. The faster it moves, the more kinetic energy. 

Basically, <em>Potential</em> is the "build up" but it does not, I repeat does not move.

<em>Kinetic</em> energy is the use of the "build up" through movement.

assume that a water balloon has the same number of water molecules as a helium balloon has helium atoms. If the mass of the wate
Aloiza [94]

Answer : The mass of the water molecule is 4.5 times greater than the mass of the helium atom.

Explanation :

Assumption : The number of water molecules is equal to the number of helium atoms

Given : The mass of water = 4.5 × The mass of helium     ........(1)

The mass of Water = Mass of 1 water molecule × Number of water molecule

The mass of Helium = Mass of 1 helium atom × Number of helium atom

Now these two masses expression put in the equation (1), we get

Mass of 1 water molecule × Number of water molecule = 4.5 × Mass of 1 helium atom × Number of helium atom

As per assumption, the number of water molecules is equal to the number of helium atoms. The relation between the mass of water molecule and the mass of helium atom is,

Mass of water molecule = 4.5 × Mass of helium atom

Therefore, the mass of the water molecule is 4.5 times greater than the mass of the helium atom.
