A cable raises a mass of 158.0 kg with an acceleration of 1.8 m/s2. What force (in N) of tension is in the cable?

Answer:

Force of Tension = 1832.8  N

Explanation:

Any mass of object supported or pulled by a rope or cable  is subject to a force of tension. Since the mass is raised by a cable, tension is involved.

Mathematically,

Tension = mass × gravity(9.8 m/s²)

Tension can be represented as

T = (m × g) + (m × a)

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity of the object the cable is supporting and a is the acceleration on the object the cable is supporting. And m is the mass of the object.

mass = 158 kg

a = 1.8 m/s²

g = 9.8 m/s²

T = mg + ma

T = m(g + a)

T = 158(9.8 + 1.8)

T = 158 × 11.6

T = 1832.8  N

What does a student need to know about double bonds and triple bonds when predicting molecular geometry of molecules?
zhuklara [117]

This problem is asking for an explanation of what we need to know about double and triple bonds to successfully predict molecular geometries in molecules. At the end, one comes to the conclusion that double and triple bonds contribute to the degree in which an atom is bonded and they also determine the lone pairs, which, at the same time,  define the molecular geometry.

<h3>Molecular geometry:</h3>

In chemistry, molecules are not necessarily flat arrangements of atoms, yet they have specific bond angles, orientations and shapes, which define the molecular geometry. In such a way, we can use the VSEPR theory in order to know the molecular geometry of a molecule; however, we first need its Lewis structure or at least the number and type of bonds to do so.

Consider water and carbon dioxide; the former has two hydrogen to oxygen bonds (O-H) and 2 lone pairs because O has six valence electrons but just 2 are bonded to complete the octet, so 4 unpaired electrons lead to two lone pairs. On the other hand, the latter has two double bonds (C=O) and 0 lone pairs because carbon has four valence electrons and they are all bonded to complete the octet.

In such a way, one can see how the double bond affected the bonding in CO2 in contrast to the H2O; situation that also applies to triple bonds, because CO2 has a linear molecular geometry whereas water has a bent one (see attached picture)

Hence, one comes to the conclusion that double and triple bonds contribute to the degree in which an atom is bonded and they also determine the lone pairs, which, at the same time, define the molecular geometry.

Fossil age can determine organism changes related to the time scale. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Fossil age can determine organism changes related to the time scale. Fossils provide scientists with evidence that allows them to hypothesize how living organisms have evolved over time.

fossil can be studied to determine what kind of organism it represents, how the organism lived, and how it was preserved. However, by itself a fossil has little meaning unless it is placed within some context. The age of the fossil must be determined so it can be compared to other fossil species from the same time period. Understanding the ages of related fossil species helps scientists piece together the evolutionary history of a group of organisms.

When 3-iodo-3-ethylpentane is heated in methanol, the major organic product is an __________________ that is generated through a
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Ether

SN1 mechanism

Explanation:

The nucleophile in this reaction is CH3OH. It is a poor nucleopile. We already know that a poor nucleophile reacting with a tertiary alkyl halide often leads to the substitution product as the major product.

Also, the iodide ion is a good leaving group. This makes the SN1 substitution more likely yielding the ether as the major product as shown in the image attached.

0.750mol of gas are stored in a tank at a pressure of 275kpa and a temperature of 0.00 degrees * C What is the volume of the tan
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The volume on the tank is 6, 20 L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the units of pressure in kPa into atm and temperature in Celsius into Kelvin:

0°C=273K

101,325kPa---1 atm

275kPa --------x=(275kPax 1 atm)/101,325kPa= 2,71 atm

PV=nRT --> V=nRT/P

V= 0,750 mol x 0,082 l atm /K mol x 273 K/ 2, 71 atm= <em>6, 20 L</em>
