Hi there!
We can use the rotational equivalent of Newton's Second Law:
Στ = Net Torque (Nm)
I = Moment of inertia (kgm²)
α = Angular acceleration (rad/sec²)
We can plug in the given values to solve.
Given:
The balanced chemical reaction of the synthesis of phosphorus trichloride:
2P + 3Cl2 ===> 2PCl3
Initial amount of phosphorus = 15 grams
The amount of product produced from 15 grams of phosphorus:
15 grams / 31 g/mol * (2/2) = 66.46 grams PCl3
The amount of chlorine is 44.31 grams, nearest to 45 grams.
The answer is C! I knew this way before taking the test
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
The momentum of an object is given by:
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
We know that an elephant has a mass much larger than the mass of an ant. However, we see that the momentum of the animal also depends on its velocity.
If the elephant is at rest, its velocity is zero:
v = 0
so its momentum is also zero:
p = 0
And therefore, an ant which is moving (so, non-zero speed) can have more momentum than an elephant, if the elephant is at rest.
