Answer is: <span>a hill over which a wagon is pushed.
</span>For all chemical reaction some energy is required and that energy is called activation energy (<span>energy that needs to be absorbed for a chemical reaction to start)<span>.
There are two types of reaction: endothermic reaction (chemical reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases) and exothermic reaction (chemical reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs).
</span></span>R<span>eactions occur faster with a catalyst because they require less activation energy.</span>

what is the pH of a solution prepared from solid, neutral 2-nitrophenol providing a fromal concentration of 0.0353M, given that
REY [17]

Answer:

pH = 4.34

Explanation:

pH= -1/2(logKa) -1/2(log C)

= -1/2( log 5.98*10^-8) -1/2(log 0.0353)

=-1/2(-7.22)-1/2(-1.45)

=3.61+0.725= 4.34

15.0 g of Fe and 25.0 g of sand are added to 250.0 g of water. a. Determine the percent mass of Fe, sand, and water in the mixtu
lana [24]

Answer:

A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand  = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 86.205%

B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand

Explanation:

A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:

Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g

percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%

B. Flow chart of separation procedure

(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.

A 6.1-kg solid sphere, made of metal whose density is 2600 kg/m3, is suspended by a cord. When the sphere is immersed in a liqui
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of solid sphere(m) = 6.1 kg

Density of the metal = 2600 kg/m³

Thus volume of the liquid :

Volume(V)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Density (\rho)}

Volume of the sphere = 6.1 kg/2600 kg/m³ = 0.002346 m³

The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of sphere (Archimedes' principle)

Volume displaced = 0.002346 m³

Buoyant force =\rho\times gV

Where

\rho is the density of the fluid

g is the acceleration due to gravity

V is the volume displaced

The free body diagram of the sphere is shown in image.

According to image:

mg=\rho\times gV+T

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 ms⁻²

Tension force = 26 N

Applying in the equation to find the density of the liquid as:

6.1\times 9.81=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346+26

33.841=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346

\rho=\frac{33.841}{9.81\times 0.002346}

\rho=1470.43 kgm^3

<u>Thus, the density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³</u>

Jamie rolls a 6-sided die 30 times and determines that the experimental probability of rolling a 2 is Start Fraction 1 over 15 E
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Conduct more trials

Explanation:

Theoretical Probability can be defined as what someone is expecting to happen

Experimental Probability on the other hand, is defined as what actually happens.

Probability is usually calculated in the same way for experimental probability and that of theoretical probability. You divide the total number of possible ways in which a particular outcome can happen, by the total number of outcomes itself.

In Experimental probability, the more times a probability is tried, it gets closer and even more closer to theoretical probability.

So, for the question, Jamie should improve the number of tries more, so as to get his experimental probability results to be closer to the theoretical probability result.
