The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the mass of the object times acceleration due to gravity.   

<span>F = ma </span>
<span>4.9N = m (9.8 m/s^2), note that N (newtons) = kg-m/s^2 </span>
m = 0.5 kg 
<span>The mass of the object is 0.5kg.</span>

Mass defect for oxygen-16 = 0. 13261 amu How many kilograms does the mass defect represent? 1. 66 × 10-27 kg 2. 20 × 10 -28 kg 3
Zepler [3.9K]

Mass defect for oxygen-16 = 0. 13261 amu, in the kilograms the mass defect equals to 2.20 × 10⁻²⁸ kg.

<h3>What is mass defect?</h3>

Mass defect is the difference between the mass of of an whole atom and the combined mass of its individual particles present in that atom.

We know that, 1 amu = 1.6 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

Given that, mass defect for oxygen-16 = 0.13261 amu

To calculate this defect in terms of kilograms, we have to convert into kg unit as:

0.13261 amu = 0.13261 amu × 1.6 × 10⁻²⁷ kg/amu

0.13261 amu = 2.20 × 10⁻²⁸ kg

Hence option (2) is correct.

The chemical equation for a reaction between K2Cr2O7 and HCl is shown.
deff fn [24]

K2Cr2O7 + 14HCl → 2CrCl3 + 2KCl + 3Cl2 + 7H2O

the correct option is :

K2Cr2O7, because the oxidation number of Cr changes from +6 to +3.


<u>Oxidation number of Cr in K2Cr2O7 is:</u>

K2Cr2O7 = 2K + 2 Cr + 7 O

= 2(+1) + 2Cr + 7(-2)

= 2 + 2Cr -14

[total charge on K2Cr2O7 = 0], Hence;

2 + 2Cr -14 = 0

2Cr -12 = 0

2Cr = 12

Cr = 12/2

<u>Cr = +6</u>


<u>Oxidation number of Cr in CrCl3 is:</u>

CrCl3 = Cr + 3Cl = 0

Cr + 3(-1) = 0

Cr -3 = 0

<u>Cr = +3</u>

Hence Cr is changing its oxidation number from

+6 in K2Cr2O7 to +3 in CrCl3.

Since the oxidation number of Cr [ +6 → +3] is decreasing here,

Cr is getting reduced.

 

so K2Cr2O7 is an oxidizing agent,as it is getting itself reduced and oxidizes others.
