If you stretch back a rubber band and release it, it shoots across the room. What type of energy conversion has occurred?

Elastic to mechanical is the energy conversion that occurs. Elastic, the pulling back and stretching of the rubber band, mechanical is the release!

Answer: elastic to mechanical

Explanation: According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another.

Elastic energy is the energy stored as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic object. The energy is stored until the force is removed. When the force is removed, the object gets back to its original shape.The deformation can involve compressing, stretching or twisting of an object.

Mechanical energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position and motion.

Explain the significance of this quote, “Heisenberg may have slept here.”

ch4aika [34]

Umm...Well...

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle says that we can never know both the position and rate of change of a particle at any time. We can only know one or the other. This leads to rather silly jokes that deal with uncertainty, probability, and superposition. So, saying that "Heisenberg may have slept here" is essentially saying that it is uncertain if Heisenberg slept there or not, making for a rather silly, but slightly unfunny physics joke.

Classify each of these soluble solutes as a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, or a nonelectrolyte. Solutes formula hydroch

matrenka [14]

Compounds which on dissolving in water gets completely dissociates into its ions are known as strong electrolytes whereas compounds which on dissolving in water gets partially dissociates into its ions are known as weak electrolytes.

Substances which gives solution on dissolving in water and do not dissociates into ions also does not conduct electric current are known as nonelectrolyte.

Hydrochloric acid, $HCl$

On adding $HCl$ (strong acid) in water, it will completely dissociates into ions ( $H^{+}$ and $Cl^{-}$ ) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

Sodium hydroxide, $NaOH$

On adding $NaOH$ (strong base) in water, it will completely dissociates into ions ( $Na^{+}$ and $OH^{-}$ ) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

Formic acid, $HCOOH$

On adding $HCOOH$ (weak acid) in water, it will partially dissociates into ions ( $H^{+}$ and $HCOO^{-}$ ) and thus, it is a weak electrolyte.

Methyl amine, $CH_3NH_2$

On adding $CH_3NH_2$ (weak base) in water, it will partially dissociates into ions ( $CH_3NH_3^{+}$ and $OH^{-}$ ) and thus, it is a weak electrolyte.

Potassium chloride, $KCl$

On adding $KCl$ in water, it will completely dissociates into ions ( $K^{+}$ and $Cl^{-}$ ) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

Ethanol, $C_2H_5OH$

On adding $C_2H_5OH$ in water, it will not dissociates into ions and thus, it is a nonelectrolyte.

Sucrose, $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}$

On adding $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}$ in water, it will not dissociates into ions and thus, it is a nonelectrolyte.

A student placed 10.5 g of glucose (C6H12O6) in a volumetric fla. heggsk, added enough water to dissolve the glucose by swirling

aniked [119]

Answer: The mass of glucose in final solution is 0.420 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .........(1)

Initial mass of glucose = 10.5 g

Molar mass of glucose = 180.16 g/mol

Volume of solution = 100 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Initial molarity of glucose}=\frac{10.5\times 1000}{180.16\times 100}\\\\\text{Initial molarity of glucose}=0.583M$

To calculate the molarity of the diluted solution, we use the equation:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

where,

$M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the molarity and volume of the concentrated glucose solution

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the molarity and volume of diluted glucose solution

We are given:

$M_1=0.583M\\V_1=20.0mL\\M_2=?M\\V_2=0.5L=500mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.583\times 20=M_2\times 500\\\\M_2=\frac{0.583\times 20}{500}=0.0233M$

Now, calculating the mass of final glucose solution by using equation 1:

Final molarity of glucose solution = 0.0233 M

Molar mass of glucose = 180.16 g/mol

Volume of solution = 100 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0233=\frac{\text{Mass of glucose in final solution}\times 1000}{180.16\times 100}\\\\\text{Mass of glucose in final solution}=\frac{0.0233\times 180.16\times 100}{1000}=0.420g$

Hence, the mass of glucose in final solution is 0.420 grams
