Answer:

The answer for this is that for converting lead into gold we need to change the amount of protons in lead which with help in converting it to the gold.

Explanation:

Lead (atomic number is 82) and gold (atomic number is 79) are characterized by the protons density which they possess as components. Changing the factor involves modification of the amount of the atom (proton). It is difficult to change the amount of protons in an atom through any chemical Reaction.

Physics can, therefore, be used to attach or subtract protons and thereby turn one part into another. Since lead is solid, it is pushed out and the gold is surpassed.

A bag of sugar weighs 5.00 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration is one-sixt
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Earth: 22.246 N

Moon: 3.71 N

Jupiter: 58.72 N

Explanation:

The mass of an object will remain constant in any location, its weight however, can fluctuate depending on its location. For example, a golf ball will weigh less on the moon, but its mass will not be different if it was on earth.

To calculate anything, we need to convert to standard measurements.

5.00 lbs = 2.27 kg

On earth, gravity is measured to be 9.8 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on Earth would be: (2.27 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 22.246 N

Repeated on the moon where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (1/6) = 1.633 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on the moon would be: (2.27 kg) x (1.633 m/s²) = 3.71 N

Repeated on Jupiter where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (2.64) = 25.87 m/s², so the wight in Newtons on Jupiter would be: (2.27 kg) x (25.87 m/s²) = 58.72 N
