Answer:

Potential Energy

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy available when a body is at a state of rest or in virtue of its position. Its formula is mgh.

The quarter back’s hasn’t thrown the ball yet even though it has the potential to do so later on which makes it possess

Potential energy.

As soon as the arm moves and the ball is thrown, the potential energy is converted to Kinetic energy . The kinetic energy is the energy available as a result of the motion(movement) of a body.

Potential energy

Reason why: because the quarterbacks arm has the potential to throw a ball but since it is not throwing the ball, the energy is being held... this holding of energy is called potential energy

What is the energy released in this β − β − nuclear reaction 40 19 K → 40 20 C a + 0 − 1 e 19 40 K → 20 40 C a + − 1 0 e ? (The

Effectus [21]

Answer: The energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.

Explanation:

For the given nuclear reaction:

$_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}\rightarrow _{20}^{40}\textrm{Ca}+_{-1}^{0}\textrm{e}$

We are given:

Mass of $_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}$ = 39.963998 u

Mass of $_{20}^{40}\textrm{Ca}$ = 39.962591 u

To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:

$\Delta m=\text{Mass of reactants}-\text{Mass of products}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta m=(39.963998-39.962591)=0.001407u$

To calculate the energy released, we use the equation:

$E=\Delta mc^2\\E=(0.001407u)\times c^2$

$E=(0.001407u)\times (931.5MeV)$ (Conversion factor: $1u=931.5MeV/c^2$ )

$E=1.3106MeV$

Hence, the energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.

Calculate the pka of hypochlorous acid. The ph of a 0.015 m solution of hypochlorous acid has a ph of 4.64.

o-na [289]

Answer:

pKa = 7.46

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) Hypochlorous acid = HClO

b) [HClO} = 0.015

c) pH = 4.64

d) pKa = ?

2) Strategy:

With the pH calculate [H₃O⁺], then use the equilibrium equation to calculate the equilibrium constant, Ka, and finally calculate pKa from the definition.

3) Solution:

a) pH

pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

4.64 = - log [H₃O⁺]

$[H_3O^+]= 10^{-4.64} = 2.29.10^{-5}$

b) Equilibrium equation: HClO (aq) ⇄ ClO⁻ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq)

c) Equilibrium constant: Ka = [ClO⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HClO]

d) From the stoichiometry: [CLO⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M

e) By substitution: Ka = (2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M)² / 0.015M = 3.50 × 10⁻⁸ M

f) By definition: pKa = - log Ka = - log (3.50 × 10 ⁻⁸) = 7.46
