n the astronaut, why does she appear to be weightless.
A) Earth only exerts gravitational force on objects at its surface.
B)The mass of the astronaut is insufficient to be affected by gravity.
C) Earth and ISS cancel each other's gravitational force on the astronaut.

Answer: D)The distance from Earth and mass of ISS exert negligible gravitational force on the astronaut.

Explanation:

The distance from Earth and mass of ISS exert negligible gravitational force on the astronaut. Gravity is a very weak force and varies with mass and the inverse square of distance. The astronaut's distance from Earth and the relative small mass of ISS result in gravitational force near zero.

Colligative property definition chemistry
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: Colligative properties are those properties of solutions that are dependent on the concentration of the solutes in the solution.

Colligative properties has to do with solutions, that is, solutes that are dissolved in solvents. Examples of colligative properties are: freezing point depression, vapour pressure lowering, boiling point elevation and osmotic pressure. Colligative properties do not depend on the identity of the solutes, this implies that the effect of colligative properties are uniform across all solutions. For example, the freezing point depression of any solution will depend on the concentration of solutes that are dissolve in solution.

What is the final concentration of cl- ion when 250 ml of 0.20 m cacl2 solution is mixed with 250 ml of 0.40 m kcl solution? (as
serious [3.7K]

CaCl2 and KCl are both salts which dissociate in water when dissolved. Assuming that the dissolution of the two salts are 100 percent, the half reactions are:

<span>CaCl2 ---> Ca2+  +  2 Cl-</span>

KCl ---> K+ + Cl-

Therefore the total Cl- ion concentration would be coming from both salts. First, we calculate the Cl- from each salt by using stoichiometric ratio:

Cl- from CaCl2 = (0.2 moles CaCl2/ L) (0.25 L) (2 moles Cl / 1 mole CaCl2)

Cl- from CaCl2 = 0.1 moles

 

Cl- from KCl = (0.4 moles KCl/ L) (0.25 L) (1 mole Cl / 1 mole KCl)

Cl- from KCl = 0.1 moles

 

Therefore the final concentration of Cl- in the solution mixture is:

Cl- = (0.1 moles + 0.1 moles) / (0.25 L + 0.25 L)

Cl- = 0.2 moles / 0.5 moles

<span>Cl- = 0.4 moles             (ANSWER)</span>

Given the reaction below, if 0.00345 g of carbon dioxide is used up, how many grams of water will be produced?
zimovet [89]

From the  stoichiometry of the reaction, 1.4 * 10^-3 g is produced.

<h3>What mass of water is produced?</h3>

The equation of the reaction is written as; CO2 + 2LiOH → Li2CO3 + H2O. This can help us to apply the principle of stoichiometry here.

Thus;

Number of moles of CO2 = 0.00345 g/44 g/mol = 7.8 * 10^-5 moles

If 1 mole of CO2 produced 1 mole of water

7.8 * 10^-5 moles of CO2 produced  7.8 * 10^-5 moles of water

Mass of water produced =  7.8 * 10^-5 moles * 18 g/mol = 1.4 * 10^-3 g

Physical Changes
Talja [164]
C. Physical changes do not change the identity of a substance, only the physical appearance such as shape or form. If you break a pencil in half, it is still composed of the same material and therefore keeps its identity as the substance it was before the physical change. Phase changes, such as ice melting, is also a physical change because it changes form. But ice is still made of H20 just like water and steam are comprised of H20.
