What does weight measure?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Misha Larkins [42]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Weight is the measure of the force of gravity

Explanation:

Weight is a measure of the force of gravity on a physical object and is measured in newtons. The weight of a bird of mass 15 g varies with the magnitude of the gravitational force acting on it and would be considerably different if measured on the Moon, for example, instead of on Earth.

The family that contains disinfectants is the _____. noble gases transition metals strong metals halogens
Semenov [28]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. The family that contains disinfectants is the halogens. This group includes  the elements fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. Disinfectants are chemical agents that inhibit or kill microorganisms on inanimate objects.

How does a buffer regulate pH?
Alex_Xolod [135]
C is the correct answer.a buffer reacts with the added acid or base which can produce H+ or hydroxide ion,or a kind of removing H+ or hydroxide added to solution.remember that buffers don't prevent additional acid or base from reacting,they react with the additional themselves.the A and D are completely wrong.

An atom of lead has a radius of and the average orbital speed of the electrons in it is about . Calculate the least possible unc
victus00 [196]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

An atom of lead has a radius of 154 pm and the average orbitalspeed of the electron in it is about 1.8x10^{8} m/s. Calculate the least possible uncertainty in a measurement of the speed of an electron in an atom of lead. Write your answer as a percentage of the average speed, and round it to significant 2 digits.

Answer: v% = 0.21 m/s

Explanation: To calculate the uncertainty, use <u>Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle</u>, which states that:  ΔpΔx≥\frac{h}{4\pi }

where h is <u>Planck's constant</u> and it is equal to 6.626.10^{-34}m²kg/s.

Since p (momentum) is p = m.v:

mΔv.Δx ≥ \frac{h}{4\pi }

Δv = \frac{h}{4\pi.x.m }

Given that: r = x = 1.54.10^{-10}m and mass of an electron is m=9.1.10^{-31}kg

Δv = \frac{6.626.10^{-34} }{4.3.14.1.54.10^{-10}.9.1.10^{-31}}

Δv = 0.0376.10^{7}

As percentage of average speed:

Δv.\frac{1}{v}.100% = \frac{0.0376.10^{7} }{1.8.10^{8} }.10² = 0.021.10 = 0.21%

The least possible uncertainty in a speed of an electron is 0.21%.

a rectangular piece of aluminum foil measures 13.72 cm x 8.63 cm and has a mass of 3.1 g. Find how thick it is
Leona [35]

The two dimensions of aluminum foil are given 13.72 cm and 8.63 cm respectively with mass  3.1 g.

The density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm^{3}. It is defined as mass per unit volume thus, volume of aluminum can be calculated as follows:

V=\frac{m}{d}

Putting the values.

V=\frac{3.1 g}{2.7 g/cm^{3}}=1.148 cm^{3}

The volume of cuboid is l\times b\times h, the length and breadth are given, height can be calculated as follows;

h=\frac{V}{l\times b}

Putting the values,

h=\frac{1.148 cm^{3}}{(13.72 cm)(8.63 cm)}=0.009695 cm

Or, approximately 9.7\times 10^{-3}cm

Therefore, thickness of aluminum foil is 9.7\times 10^{-3}cm
