Answer:

Explanation:

Let's illustrate this; see the attachment.

We see that Mrs. Jacobson is pushing to the right with a force of 100 N and there is another opposite force pushing with a force of 15 N. Since these are in opposite directions, we can say that the force opposite to Mrs. Jacobson is pushing the fridge -15 N to the right (instead of 15 N to the left).

The net force would then be:

100 N + (-15 N) = 85 N to the right

The answer is A.

Answer:

85 N to the right

Explanation:

Convention: rightwards positive

Force applied by Mrs. Jacobson:

+100

Force applied by the fridge:

-15

Net force

+100 - 15

+85

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.

Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.

General formulas used in decay:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{t/t\frac{1}{2} }}}$

T = duration of decay

t 1/2 = half-life

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time

Nt=25 g

No=100 g

t1/2=5770 years

$\tt 25=100\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\2=T/5770\rightarrowT=11540~years$

Hydrogen gas (a potential future fuel) can be formed by the reaction of methane with water according to the following equation:

dem82 [27]

Answer:

The percent yield of the reaction is 62.05 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of methane = 25.5 L

Pressure of methane = 732 torr

Temperature = 25.0 °C = 298 K

Volume of water vapor = 22.0 L

Pressure of H2O = 704 torr

Temperature = 125 °C

The reaction produces 26.0 L of hydrogen gas measured at STP

Step 2: The balanced equation

CH4(g) + H2O(g) → CO(g) + 3H2(g)

Step 3: Calculate moles methane

p*V = n*R*T

⇒with p = the pressure of methane = 0.963158 atm

⇒with V = the volume of methane = 25.5 L

⇒with n = the moles of methane = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒with T = the temperature = 298 K

n = (p*V) / (R*T)

n = (0.963158 * 25.5 ) / ( 0.08206 * 298)

n = 1.0044 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles H2O

p*V = n*R*T

⇒with p = the pressure of methane = 0.926316 atm

⇒with V = the volume of methane = 22.0 L

⇒with n = the moles of methane = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒with T = the temperature = 398 K

n = (p*V) / (R*T)

n = (0.926316 * 22.0) / (0.08206 * 398)

n = 0.624 moles

Step 5: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 1 mol methane we need 1 mol H2O to produce 1 mol CO and 3 moles H2

H2O is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.624 moles).

Methane is in excess. There will react 0.624 moles. There will remain 1.0044 - 0.624 moles = 0.3804 moles methane

Step 6: Calculate moles hydrogen gas

For 1 mol methane we need 1 mol H2O to produce 1 mol CO and 3 moles H2

For 0.624 moles H2O we'll have 3*0.624 = 1.872 moles

Step 9: Calculate volume of H2 at STP

1.0 mol at STP has a volume of 22.4 L

1.872 moles has a volume of 1.872 * 22.4 = 41.9 L

Step 10: Calculate the percent yield of the reaction

% yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100 %

% yield = ( 26.0 L / 41.9 L) *100 %

% yield = 62.05 %

The percent yield of the reaction is 62.05 %
