Answer:

I got a 100 with this, sorry if this is not what you want just trying to help

Explanation:

1. This experiment was to find how mass and speed effect KE. This is important because if you were in a situation where you needed something to go higher, you would know to add more or less of mass/speed.  

To test mass, we filled the bean bag with a certain amount of water, then dropped it. After, you recorded how high it made the bean bag go. The same with speed, but same amount in the bottle, just dropped from different heights.  

My hypothesis is when you have more mass, the KE will be greater. This is also the same with speed, if it is dropped from a higher place, the bean bag will launch farther than the last time.  

2. Data I collected from the lab was like my hypothesis explained. When the height of the bottle increased, it made the bean bag go higher than the last. And I tested 4 different masses, 0.125 kg, 0.250kg, 0.375kg and 0.500kg. Each time the bean bag went higher on a larger mass.  

A lot of times on the speed test, the bean bag would go higher than the bottle drop point, but not every time. Also, when it was dropped from the same height each time, some results varied quite a bit, like when it was dropped from 1.28 the results were 1.14 then 1.30 1.30. Mass on the other hand was all in the same number range, only once the numbers were a bit off from each other.  

3.  Some formulas I used were KE= ½ mv^2 and Ht v^2/2g. The first was to calculate the kinetic energy of an object, m=mass v=speed. Second was for finding out what height I needed to drop something to reach a certain speed, Ht=Height and g= Gravitational Acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2.  

I used these to figure out tables that showed relationships between different things like mass and KE or speed and height. The whole time I was doing the lab, my data was going up, when there was more mass/speed there were higher values in the table.  

This means that my hypothesis at the beginning was correct, more of m/s means KE will increase proportionally because they are all linear. I found it surprising when the bean bag height went over the water bottle drop mark.  

4.     To conclude, my hypothesis matched my data. The data values went up when more mass or speed was added. This means if I were in a situation where I needed more kinetic energy for something, I would know to increase mass or the speed of the object giving it energy.  

The reason that this hypothesis is correct is when you have more mass, you have more energy. So, when you drop let's say a baseball, it isn’t that heavy so it would only launch the bean bag so far. But a bowling ball is very heavy and has lots of energy when falling because of that, it would make the bean bag go very high.  

To make this experiment better, I would use a smoother material for the lever so energy wouldn’t be lost by friction from wood rubbing together. Also, maybe a scanner or video camera to more accurately record how far the bean bag went. All of these would help the lab get more precise results, maybe they could be used in a future lab.

How do i calculate the mass of CO2 emitted per Kj of heat produced in a combustion reaction?
Alexxandr [17]
 methanol:

1 mole CH3 OH --> produces --> 1 mole CO2 

1 mole CO2 has a molar mass of 44.01 gh/mole
 
your set up is:
(44.01 g CO2) / -726.5kJ = 0.06058g

your answer 0.06058 grams of CO2 produced per kJ released.

The average distance between molecules always increases during which of the following phase changes?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

B. liquid to gas

Explanation:

Matter exists in 3 different states:

- Solid: in solids, particles in the substance are tightly bond to each other through strong intermolecular forces. Therefore, they can only vibrate around their fixed position, but they cannot move freely: as a result, the distance between the particles is the smallest among the 3 states of matter.

- Liquid: in a liquid, particles are able to slide past each other, however there are still intermolecular forces keeping them not too far from each other. As a result, in liquids, particles are on average more distance from each other compared to solids.

- Gas: in a gas, particles are completely free to move, as the intermolecular forces between them are negligible. As a result, in gases, the distance between molecules is the greatest, compared with solids and liquids.

Therefore, the phase changes in which the average distance between molecules increases is:

B. liquid to gas
