Answer:

potential energy

Explanation:

energy which is linked with the position of the object is called as potential energy. any object possessing energy due to its position is potential energy. example is holding a basketball up in to the air at a certain height so that it will have a gravitational pull towards earth surface. this gravitation pull is called as potential energy.

Answer:

Potential Energy

Explanation:

Any body that is static in a particular position possesses a potential energy as far as it is not moving.

But if it is moving, then it possesses a kinetic energy. The first and main energy a body possess due to it's position is therefore known as potential energy, because it has the potential of converting it to other forms of energy after a slight application of force.

Convert 150 kPa to atmospheres. *

lakkis [162]

Answer: 1.48 atmosphere

Explanation:

Pressure in kilopascal = 150

Pressure in atmosphere = ?

Recall that 1 atmosphere = 101.325 kilopascal

Hence, 1 atm = 101.325 kPa

Z atm = 150 kPa

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

150 kPa x 1 atm = 101.325 kPa x Z

150 kPa•atm = 101.325 kPa•Z

Divide both sides by 101.325 kPa

150 kPa•atm/101.325 kPa = 101.325 kPa•Z/101.325 kPa

1.48 atm = Z

Thus, 150 kPa is equivalent to 1.48 atmospheres

How can you tell when a solution is formed?

zhuklara [117]

You may tell when a solution os formed when the item or particle, such as sugar or salt,
dissolves completely in the solvent, such as water.

Basically, you know when a solution is formed when the material you have placed in the solvent disappears :P

How many grams are in 1.76 x 10^23 atoms of iodine

Mariana [72]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf About \ 37.1 \ grams \ of \ iodine }}$

Explanation:

To convert from atoms to grams, you must first convert atoms to moles, then moles to grams.

1. Convert Atoms to Moles

To convert atoms to grams, Avogadro's number must be used.

$6.022*10^{23}$

This number tells us the number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.) in 1 mole. In this case, the particles are atoms of iodine.

$\frac{6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ I }{1 \ mol \ I}$

Multiply the given number of atoms by Avogadro's number.

$1.76*10^{23} \ atoms \ I*\frac{6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ I }{1 \ mol \ I}$

Flip the fraction so the atoms of iodine will cancel out.

$1.76*10^{23} \ atoms \ I*\frac{ 1 \ mol \ I}{6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ I}$

$1.76*10^{23}* \frac{1 \ mol \ I}{6.022*10^{23} }$

Multiply so the problem condenses into 1 fraction.

$\frac{1.76*10^{23} \ mol \ I}{6.022*10^{23} }$

$0.2922617071 \ mol \ I$

2. Convert Moles to Grams

Now we must use the molar mass of iodine, which is found on the Periodic Table.

Iodine Molar Mass: 126.9045 g/mol

Use this mass as a fraction.

$\frac{ 126.9045 \ g\ I }{ 1 \ mol \ I}$

Multiply this fraction by the number of moles found above.

$0.2922617071 \ mol \ I*\frac{ 126.9045 \ g\ I }{ 1 \ mol \ I}$

Multiply. The moles of iodine will cancel.

$0.2922617071 *\frac{ 126.9045 \ g\ I }{ 1 }$

The 1 as a denominator is insignificant.

$0.2922617071 *{ 126.9045 \ g\ I }$

$37.08932581 \ g \ I$

3. Round

The original measurement of 1.76*10^23 has 3 significant figures (1, 7, and 6). Therefore we must round our answer to 3 sig figs. For this answer, that is the tenths place.

$37.08932581 \ g \ I$

The 8 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 0 up to a 1.

$\approx 37.1\ g \ I$

There is about <u>37.1 grams of iodine </u>in 1.76*10^23 atoms.
