Consider an electron with a mass of 9.11 x 1051 kg and a 100.0 g tennis ball that are both moving with a velocity of 70.0 m s1.

(a) Calculate the momentum of the electron (p mv). (b) Calculate the momentum of the tennis ball (c) What is the uncertainty in the position of the electron (Ax) if the uncertainty in its momentum (Ap) is equal to 1.0 % of p for the electron? (d) What is the uncertainty in the position of the tennis ball (Ax) if the uncertainty in momentum (Ap) is equal to 0.1% of p for the tennis ball? (e) Comment on how the uncertainty in position (Ax) compares to the overall size in each case

Answer:

(a) 6.38 × 10⁻²⁹ kg·m·s⁻¹; (b) 7.00 kg·m·s⁻¹; (c) 82.7 µm; (d) 7.53 × 10⁻³⁴  m;

(e) Δx ∝ 1/m

Explanation:

(a) Momentum of electron

p = mv = 9.11  × 10⁻³¹ kg × 70.0 m·s⁻¹ = 6.38 × 10⁻²⁹ kg·m·s⁻¹

(b) Momentum of tennis ball

p = mv = 0.1000 kg × 70.0 m·s⁻¹ = 7.00 kg·m·s⁻¹

(c) Δx for electron

Δp = 0.010p = 0.010 × 6.38 × 10⁻²⁹ kg·m·s⁻¹ = 6.38 × 10⁻³¹ kg·m·s⁻¹

\begin{array}{rcl}\Delta x \Delta p & \geq & \dfrac{h}{4 \pi}\\\\\Delta x \times 6.38 \times 10^{-31} \text{ kg$\cdot$m$\cdot$s$^{-1}$} & \geq & \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \text{ kg$\cdot$m$^{2}$s}^{-1}}{4 \pi}\\\\\Delta x \times 6.38 \times 10^{-31} & \geq & 5.273 \times 10^{-35} \text{ m}\\\Delta x & \geq & \dfrac{5.273 \times 10^{-35} \text{ m}}{6.38 \times 10^{-31}}\\\\ & \geq&8.27 \times10^{-5} \text{ m}\\ &\geq&\textbf{82.7 $\mu$m}\\\end{array}

(d) Δx for tennis ball

Δp = 0.010p = 0.010 × 7.00 kg·m·s⁻¹ = 0.0700 kg·m·s⁻¹

\begin{array}{rcl}\Delta x \times 0.0700 & \geq & 5.273 \times 10^{-35} \text{ m}\\\Delta x & \geq & \dfrac{5.273 \times 10^{-35} \text{ m}}{0.0700}\\\\ &\geq& \textbf{7.53 $\mathbf{\times 10^{-34}}$ m}\\\end{array}

(e) Relative uncertainty

Both particles are travelling at the same speed, so,

ΔxΔp = Δx × mv = mvΔx = constant

v is constant, so  

Δx ∝ 1/m

Thus, the larger the mass of an object, the smaller the uncertainty in its velocity.

What mass of powdered drink mix is needed to make a 0.5 M solution of 100 mL?
Maru [420]

Answer:

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed

Explanation:

<u>Step 1 :</u> Calculate moles

As given, the concentration of the drink is 0.5 M, this means 0.5 mol / L

Since the volume is 100mL, we have to convert the concentration,

⇒0.5 / 1   =  x /0.1    ⇒ 0.5* 0.1  = x = 0.05 M

This means there is 0.05 mol per 100mL

e

<u>Step 2 </u>: calculate mass of the powdered drink

here we use the formula n (mole) = m(mass) / M (Molar mass)

⇒ since powdered drink mix is usually made of sucrose (C12H22O11) and has a molar mass of 342.2965 g/mol.

0.05 mol = mass / 342.2965 g/mol

To find the mass, we isolate it ⇒0.05 mol * 342.2965 g/mol = 17,114825g

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed
