What gives Kevlar its bulletproof strength?

Chemistry
1 answer:
alisha [4.7K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

aromatic stacking

Explanation:

Kevlar derives its bulletproof strength from aromatic stacking of its molecules. Although like most compounds having hydrogen bonds, it is quite strong but its unique property which makes it useful due to its strength is as a result of aromatic stacking.

It is an aromatic polymer made up of several units  of monomers of terephthalic acid and 1,4-diaminobenzene.

The stack maximizes the hydrogen bonds and the amide linkages which therefore furnishes its unique strength.

If a 50 N force pulls on a 10 kg object,how much acceleration will occur?
meriva
Assuming that the force of friction does not equal to the force at which you are pulling at, hence Fnet is not zero, to solve for acceleration need to use the following equation:

Fnet = ma
a = Fnet/m
a = 50 N/10 kg
a = 5 N/kg or a = 5 m/s^2.

4Cr(s)+3O2 (g )= Cr2O3 (s)<br> Find the theoretical yield in moles and grams
Assoli18 [71]
The balanced reaction is:

<span>4Cr(s)+3O2 (g )= Cr2O3 (s)

Since we are not given the amount of any of the reactants, we assume we have one gram of chromium. Calculations are as follows:

1 g Cr ( 1 mol Cr / 52 g Cr ) ( 1 mol Cr2O3 / 4 mol Cr ) = <span>0.005 mol Cr2O3

</span></span>0.005 mol Cr2O3 (151.99 g Cr2O3 / 1 mol Cr2O3 ) = 0.7307 g <span>Cr2O3
</span>
Therefore, the theoretical yield for 1 gram of Cr is 0.005 mol Cr2O3 or 0.7307 g Cr2O3.

What's ionic bonding
stich3 [128]
Ionic bonding is bonding between a metal and a nonmetal, in short. For example, NaCl (table salt, Sodium Chloride) is an ionic bond. This is because Sodium is a metal while Chlorine is a nonmetal, making this an ionic bond. Hope this helps and have a great day!
