The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

100% on this just took the test and got it right

Charlie is balancing an equation. She has identified the atoms and counted the number of each in the reactants and products. What would Charlie adjust to make the number of atoms in the reactants the same as the number of atoms in the products? coefficients subscripts superscripts parentheses

Answer: A: The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

Explanation: The chemical reaction of photosynthesis is represented as:

$C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2\rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2O$

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products is equal to the mass of reactants.

Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the chemical equation. Thus the equation is balanced and there are 6 atoms of carbon in reactants as well as products.

Consider the following statements about Newton's 2nd law in general. Select all of the statements that are true. Note, there may

Art [367]

Answer:

1. True

2. False

3. True

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law states that the net force exerted on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

$\sum F = ma$ (1)

where

$\sum F$ is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is the acceleration

Furthermore, we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity:

$a = \frac{dv}{dt}$

So let's now analyize the three statements:

1. A net force causes velocity to change: TRUE. Net force (means non-zero) causes a non-zero acceleration, which means that the velocity of the object must change.

2. If an object has a velocity, then we can conclude that there is a net force on the object: FALSE. The fact that the object has a velocity does not imply anything about its acceleration: in fact, if its velocity is constant, then its acceleration is zero, which would mean that the net force on the object is zero. So this statement is not necessarly true.

3. Accelerations are caused by the presence of a net force: TRUE. This is directly implied by eq.(1): the presence of the net force results in the object having a non-zero acceleration.

A 2. 0 μf and a 4. 0 μf capacitor are connected in series across an 8. 0-v dc source. what is the charge on the 2. 0 μf capacito

Nezavi [6.7K]

voltage across 2.0μf capacitor is 5.32v

Given:

C1=2.0μf

C2=4.0μf

since two capacitors are in series there equivalent capacitance will be

[tex] \frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{c1} + \frac{1}{c2} [/tex]

$c = \frac{c1 \times c2}{c1 + c2}$

$= \frac{2 \times 4}{2 + 4}$

=1.33μf

As the capacitance of a capacitor is equal to the ratio of the stored charge to the potential difference across its plates, giving: C = Q/V, thus V = Q/C as Q is constant across all series connected capacitors, therefore the individual voltage drops across each capacitor is determined by its its capacitance value.

Q=CV

given,V=8v

$= 1.33 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} \times 8$
