The formula for kinetic energy is KE=1/2(mv²). Since both mass and velocity are multiplied by each other, particle with a larger mass needs to be moving slower than a particle with less mass if both have the same kinetic energy. You can think of it as 2KE/m=v² or 2KE/v²=m, If you increase the mass the velocity needs to decrease to keep the same KE value.
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
Answer:
the answer is 6
Explanation:
there is 3 hydrogen molecules in NH3 and there's 2 molecules of NH3 so in total, there are 6 hydrogen molecules on the products side.
Just post the question on here
The molecules of hydrogen gas that are formed is when 48.7 g of sodium are added to water is 6.375 x 10²³ molecules
<u><em>calculation</em></u>
2 Na +2H₂O → 2 NaOH +H₂
Step 1: find the moles of sodium (Na)
moles =mass÷ molar mass
from periodic table the molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol
moles= 48.7 g÷ 23 g/mol =2.117 moles
Step 2:use the mole ratio to determine the moles of H₂
from given equation Na:H₂ is 2:1
therefore the moles of H₂ = 2.117 moles x 1/2=1.059 moles
Step 3: find the molecules of H₂ using the Avogadro's law
According to Avogadro's law 1 mole = 6.02 x 10²³ molecules
1.059 moles = ? molecules
by cross multiplication
= [(1.059 moles x 6.02 x10²³ molecules) / 1 mole] =6.375 x 10²³ molecules
