Answer:

529.2 N

Explanation:

As we have studied the first law of motion, which states that every action has some reaction, equal in magnitude but having an opposite direction.

The force that is acting on the student will be due to gravitational force, that is equal to his weight.

                                              F=mg: 54kg x 9.8m/s^2 =529.2 N

So the weight of student is exerting downwards towards the stool and land. The stool will also exert a force on the student that will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, then it will be 529.2 N.

This is because the student is sitting in a constant state and all the weight is exerted on the stool.

Note: This answer is very generic supposing that all the weight of the student is on stool. But, if we suppose that student's legs are on floor so it means the force of gravity acting on the stool has become less because student's mass on stool is less. So the answer would be a force somehow less than 529.2 N.  However, since the question asked normal force, it would be weight of student in general terms.

Hope it helps!

What is the percent yield of O2 if 10.2 g of O2 is produced from the decomposition of 17.0 g of H2O?
yawa3891 [41]

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

2H2O = 2H2 + O2

<span>We are given the amount of water used in the decomposition reaction. This will be our starting point.</span>

<span>17.0 g H2O</span> (1 mol  H2O/ 18.02 g H2O) (1 mol O2/2 mol <span>H2O</span>) ( 32.00 g O2/1mol O2) = 15.09 g O2

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100

<span>Percent yield =10.2 g / 15.09  g x 100</span>

Percent yield = 67.58%

Help please ;( really don’t understand Chemistry would really appreciate it if can explain to me thank you!
Tanya [424]

Answer:

b)   O₂

d)   CH₄

Explanation:

In a chemical equation, the <u>reactants</u> are the substances that are written on the <u>left side</u>. The reactants react to produce the products. On the right side, the products are written.

The arrow => is used to separate the reactants from the products.

To the left of the arrow, you can see this written:

CH₄ + 2O₂

The plus sign + is used to separate each reactant.

In 2O₂ you can ignore the big 2 because it is a coefficient, which is written to balance the equation.

The reactants are CH₄ and O₂
