Imagine that a new planet is discovered with two moons of equal mass: Moon A and Moon B. The mass of the new planet is greater t

han the combined mass of its moons. Moon A is farther away from the new planet than Moon B. What is the planet's gravitational pull on Moon A compared to the planet's gravitational pull on Moon B?
The planet's gravity repels Moon A with a greater force than it repels Moon B, which is why Moon A is farther away.

The gravitational pull on Moon B is greater than on Moon A because Moon B is closer to the new planet than Moon A.

The gravitational pull on Moon B is greater than on Moon A because Moon B is farther away from the new planet than Moon A.

The gravitational pull on Moon A is the same as the gravitational pull on Moon B because distance does not affect the planet's gravity.

Answer: The gravitational pull on Moon B is greater than on Moon A because Moon B is closer to the new planet than Moon A.

Explanation:

The gravitational force exerted by the two objects on each other is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

F=G\frac{mM}{r^2}

F = gravitational force or pull

G = gravitational constant on that planet

M =  mass of the object-1

m = mass of object-2(Mass of Moon-A or Moon-B)

r = distance between two objects

Force\propto \frac{1}{r^2}

With decease in distance 'r' the force between the object increases or vice versa.So, from this we can say that the gravitational pull on Moon-B is more than the gravitational pull on Moon-A because the Moon B is closer than the Moon-A from the new planet.

State whether the following statements are true or false (with justification). (a) 1 mol of N2 has more molecules than 1 mol of
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

A. False.

Every substance contains the same number of molecules i.e 6.02x10^23 molecules

B. False.

Mass conc. = number mole x molar Mass

Mass conc. of 1mole of N2 = 1 x 28 = 28g

Mass conc. of 1mol of Ar = 1 x 40 = 40g

The mass of 1mole of Ar is greater than the mass of 1mole of N2

C. False.

Molar Mass of N2 = 2x14 = 28g/mol

Molar Mass of Ar = 40g/mol

The molar mass of Ar is greater than that of N2.

What is the empirical formula for a compound if a sample contains 3.72 g of P and 21.28 g of Cl
fenix001 [56]
M(P)=3.72 g
M(P)=31 g/mol

m(Cl)=21.28 g
M(Cl)=35.5 g/mol

n(P)=m(P)/M(P)
n(P)=3.72/31=0.12 mol

n(Cl)=m(Cl)/M(Cl)
n(Cl)=21.28/35.5=0.60 mol

P : Cl = 0.12 : 0.60 = 1 : 5

PCl₅ - is the empirical formula
