The simplest answer would be "acceleration due to gravity."
The exact value of this acceleration changes depending on which planet your on (for example).
Hey! So referring to the data the thing we can clearly see is that in a vacuum, everything, regardless of its mass, falls at the same speed.
Acceleration is often confused with speed, or velocity, but the difference is, acceleration by definition is the rate of which an object falls with respect to its mass and time.
Every single thing in the world falls at the same acceleration, this is because of gravity. The difference is the speed of which it falls. In space, there is not any gravity, and so, the objects are able to fall at the same speed regardless of their mass.
Answer:
- <u>The energy change would be 46kJ</u>
- <u>The energy would be absorbed</u>
Explanation:
The <em>energy change </em>during a chemical reation, i.e. the reaction energy, is equal to the chemical energy stored in the<em> bonds of the products </em>less the chemical energy stored in the <em>bonds of the reactants</em>.
Hence:
- <em>Energy change</em> = 478 kJ - 432kJ = 46kJ
The change is positive, this is, the chemical energy of the products is greater than the chemical energy of the reactants.
That corresponds to the second graph, where the level of the energy of the products in the graph is higher than the level of the energy of the reactants. Therefore, the conclusion is that the reaction <em>absorbed energy</em> and it is endothermic.
