Answer:

Second Law

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration caused in a body is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportion to the mass of the body.

This is given by :

Acceleration=\frac{Force}{Mass}

In this case the suggestion given to reduce the aircraft's cargo load is the right move as reducing the load on the aircraft will decrease the mass of the whole aircraft.  This in turn will help the aircraft to accelerate more as acceleration inversely varies with mass. Thus the aircraft will be able to reach its flying speed even on a short run way.

Hence, Newton's second law is applied.

A heliox tank contains 32% helium and 68% oxygen. The total pressure in the tank is 475 kPa. What is the partial pressure of hel
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

152 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

Explanation:

Data by percent is the molar fraction . 100.

Molar fraction of Helium = 32/ 100 → 0.32

Molar fraction of O₂ = 68/100 → 0.68

Sum of molar fractions in a mixture = 1

0.68 + 0.32 = 1

If we apply the molar fraction, we can determine the partial pressure.

Mole fraction = Partial pressure / Total pressure

0.32 = Partial pressure O₂ / 475kPa →  0.32 . 475 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

152 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

Penicillin N is an antibacterial agent that contains 8.92% sulphur by mass.Which could be the molar mass of Penicillin N? a)256g
scoundrel [369]
Answer : Option B) 360 g/mol

Explanation : 
The antibacterial agent Penicillin N contains 8.92% of sulfur by mass. So we have to calculate the molar mass of penicillin N will be as 

i) 256 X 0.0892 = 22.83 g/mol this cannot be the answer as it doesn't shows any sign of sulfur being present even in 1 mole.

ii) 360 X 0.0892 = 32.112 g/mol This is the closest to the molar mass of sulfur which is 32.06 g/mol; this means it contains 1 mole of sulfur.

iii) 390 X 0.0892 = 34.78 g/mol this also fails to prove the answer as correct.

iv) 743 X 0.0892 = 66.27 g/mol This is not even falling in the range of sulfur mole.

Hence we can confirm that the answer is Option B

Determine the empirical formula of a compound containing 40.6 grams of carbon, 5.1 grams of hydrogen, and 54.2 grams of oxygen.
Lilit [14]

The Empirical formula of compound is C₁H₂O₁. The Molecular Formula of the compound is 4 (C₁H₂O₁).

<h3>What is Empirical Formula ?</h3>

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in given compound.

Element   %   Atomic mass   Relative no. of atoms  Simplest whole ratio

C          40.6       12                   \frac{40.6}{12} = 3.3                        \frac{3.3}{3.3} = 1

H          5.1          1                      \frac{5.1}{1} = 5.1                          \frac{5.1}{3.1} = 2

O         54.2       16                    \frac{54.2}{16} = 3.3                        \frac{3.3}{3.3} = 1

The Empirical formula of compound is C₁H₂O₁ or CH₂O

<h3>How to find the Molecular formula of compound ?</h3>

Molecular formula = Empirical formula × n

n = \frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Empirical Formula weight}}

   = \frac{118.084}{30}

   = 4

Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula

                              = 4 (C₁H₂O₁)

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The Empirical formula of compound is C₁H₂O₁. The Molecular Formula of the compound is 4 (C₁H₂O₁).
