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!

For the following electron-transfer reaction:
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)  

Explanation:

Main reaction: 2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq)

In the oxidation half reaction, the oxidation number increases:

Mn changes from 0, in the ground state to Mn²⁺.

The reduction half reaction occurs where the element decrease the oxidation number, because it is gaining electrons.

Silver changes from Ag⁺ to Ag.

1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)  

To balance the hole reaction, we need to multiply by 2, the second half reaction:

Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

(Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)) . 2

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s)  

Now we sum, and we can cancel the electrons:

2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

The following balanced equation describes the reduction of iron(III) oxide to molten iron within a blast furnace: Fe2O3(s) + 3CO
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Amount of excess Carbon (ii) oxide left over = 23.75 g

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction: Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ----> 2Fe + 3CO₂

Molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = 160 g/mol;

Molar mass of Carbon (ii) oxide = 28 g/mol

From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3 moles of carbon (ii) oxide; i.e. 160 g of iron (iii) oxide reacts with 84 g (3 * 28 g)  of carbon (ii) oxide

450 g of Fe₂O₃ will react with 450 * 84/180) g of carbon (ii) oxide = 236..25 g of carbon (ii) oxide

Therefore the excess reactant is carbon (ii) oxide.

Amount of excess Carbon (ii) oxide left over = 260 - 236.25

Amount of excess Carbon (ii) oxide left over = 23.75 g
