HOW DO SCIENTISTS FORECAST SPACE WEATHER AND WHY
Fittoniya [83]
<span>Much like tornado watchers look to the skies for clues that a twister is forming, NASA and university scientists are watching the Sun in an effort to better predict space weather – blasts of particles from the Sun that impact the magnetosphere, the magnetic bubble around the Earth.</span>

Matter and energy are
Wewaii [24]
When energy transforms into mass, the amount of energy does not remain the same. When mass transforms into energy, the amount of energy also does not remain the same. However, the amount of matter and energy remains the same. ... You would weigh much less on the Moon because it is only about one-sixth the mass of Earth. So the answer is D

A compound is found to contain 73.23% xenon name 26.77% oxygen by mass. What is the empirical formula for this compound ?
Luba_88 [7]

The empirical formula is XeO₃.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Assume 100 g of the compound is present. This changes the percents to grams:

Given mass in g:

Xenon = 73.23 g

Oxygen = 26.77 g

We have to convert it to moles.

Xe = 73.23/   131.293 = 0.56 moles

O = 26.77/ 16 = 1.67 moles

Divide by the lowest value, seeking the smallest whole-number ratio:

Xe = 0.56/ 0.56 = 1

O = 1.67/ 0.56 = 2.9 ≈3

So the empirical formula is XeO₃.

Write a chemical equation for the reaction that occurs in the following cell: Cu|Cu2+(aq)||Ag+(aq)|Ag. Of the two metals, copper
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Answer is given below.

Explanation:

Anode is that electrode where oxidation occurs. Cathode is that electrode where reduction occurs.

In cell representation, half cell present left to salt-bridge notation(\parallel ) is anodic system and another half cell present right to salt-bridge notation(\parallel ) is cathodic system.

So anode is Cu and cathode is Ag.

oxidation: Cu-2e^{-}\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq.)

[reduction: Ag^{+}+e^{-}\rightarrow Ag]\times 2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

chemical equation: Cu+2Ag^{+}(aq.)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq.)+2Ag

Oxidizing agent is that species which takes electron from another species. Here Ag^{+}(aq.) takes electron from Cu. Hence Ag^{+}(aq.)  is the oxidizing agent.

Reducing agent is that species which gives electron to another species. Here Cu gives electron to Ag^{+}(aq.) . Hence Cu  is the reducing agent.
