I'm pretty sure it cant move on its own

Are you speaking of a density gradient, in which a more concentrated solution moves below a less concentrated solution?

In that case, the more concentrated solution has the greater density, and it will gradually sink below the less concentrated solution. 

In the same way, a stone will sink in water, which is less dense than the stone.

When light is shown on a mixture of chlorine and chloromethane, carbon tetrachloride is one of the components of the final react
velikii [3]

A free-radical substitution reaction is likely to be responsible for the observations. The reaction mechanism of a reaction like this can be grouped into three phases:

  • Initiation; the "light" on the mixture deliver sufficient amount of energy such that the halogen molecules undergo homologous fission. It typically takes ultraviolet radiation to initiate fissions of the bonds.  
  • Propagation; free radicals react with molecules to produce new free radicals and molecules.
  • Termination; two free radicals combine and form covalent bonds to produce stable molecules. Note that it is possible for two carbon-containing free-radicals to combine, leading to the production of trace amounts of long carbon chains in the product.

Initiation

\text{Cl}-\text{Cl} \stackrel{\text{UV}}{\to} \text{Cl}\bullet + \bullet\text{Cl}

where the big black dot indicates unpaired electrons attached to the atom.

Propagation

\text{CH}_3\text{Cl}+ \text{Cl}\bullet \to \bullet\text{CH}_2\text{Cl} + \text{HCl}

\bullet\text{CH}_2\text{Cl} + \text{Cl}_2 \to \text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2 + \text{Cl}\bullet

\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2 + \text{Cl}\bullet \to \bullet\text{CHCl}_2 + \text{HCl}

\bullet\text{CHCl}_2+ \text{Cl}_2 \to \text{CHCl}_3 + \bullet \text{Cl}

\text{CHCl}_3 + \text{Cl}\bullet \to \bullet\text{CCl}_3 + \text{HCl}

\bullet\text{CCl}_3 + \text{Cl}_2 \to \text{CCl}_4 + \text{Cl}\bullet

Termination

\text{Cl}\bullet + \bullet\text{Cl} \to \text{Cl}-\text{Cl}

How many of the planets have an orbital period of less than one Earth year?
GrogVix [38]

Since orbital period depends on how far you are from the sun, planets closer to the sun have a orbital period less than one earth year.

These planets are Mercury and Venus

What is an example of kinetic energy? Question 7 options: A frisbee flying through the air A car in the garage A box sitting on
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Kinetic energy is energy that comes from motion. Anything that is currently in motion has kinetic energy.

Let’s look at each example to determine if they have kinetic energy.

First off, a car in the garage: let’s ask ourselves- Is the car in motion?
No, it is sitting in the garage. It is not moving; therefore it doesn’t have any kinetic energy.

Next, a box sitting on a shelf: let’s ask ourselves the same question- Is the box in motion?
No, it is sitting on the shelf. Again, it is not moving. It doesn’t have any kinetic energy.

Our third item is a ball lodged in a tree: again, we will ask ourselves the same question- Is the object moving?
No, it isn’t moving. Again, since it is not moving, it will not have kinetic energy.

Our last item is a frisbee flying through the air: asking ourselves the same question- Is it moving?
Yes, the object is moving. Yes, it has kinetic energy.

The frisbee flying through the air has kinetic energy.

A gaseous fuel mixture stored at 747 mmHg and 298 K contains only methane (CH4) and propane (C3H8). When 11.1 L of this fuel mix
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

M_f=38.8\%

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Pressure P=747mmHg

Temperature T=298K

Volume V=11.1

Heat Produced Q=780kJ

Generally the equation for ideal gas is mathematically given by

 PV=nRT

 n= (747/760) *11.1/ (0.0821*298)

 n=0.446mol

Therefore

 x+y=0.446

 x=0.446-y .....1

Since

Heat of combustion of Methane=889 kJ/mol

Heat of combustion of Propane=2220 kJ/mol

Therefore

 x(889) + y(2220) = 760 ...... 2

Comparing Equation 1 and 2 and solving simultaneously

 x=0.446-y .....1

 x(889) + y(2220) = 760 ...... 2

 x=0.173

 y=0.273

Therefore

Mole fraction 0f Methane is mathematically given as

 M_f=\frac{x}{n}*100\%

 M_f=\frac{1.173}{0.446}*100\%

 M_f=38.8\%
