If the distance between two objects is decreased to - of the original

Chemistry
1 answer:
Charra [1.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The new force will be \frac{1}{100} of the original force.

Explanation:

In the context of this problem, we're dealing with the law of gravitational attraction. The law states that the gravitational force between two object is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of a distance between them.

That said, let's say that our equation for the initial force is:

F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{R^2}The problem states  that  the distance decrease to 1/10 of the original distance, this means:[tex]R_2 = \frac{1}{10}R

And the force at this distance would be written in terms of the same equation:

F_2 = G\frac{m_1m_2}{R_2^2}

Find the ratio between the final and the initial force:

\frac{F_2}{F} = \frac{G\frac{m_1m_2}{R_2^2}}{G\frac{m_1m_2}{R^2}}

Substitute the value for the final distance in terms of the initial distance:

\frac{F_2}{F} = \frac{G\frac{m_1m_2}{(\frac{R}{10})^2}}{G\frac{m_1m_2}{R^2}}

Simplify:

\frac{F_2}{F} = \frac{\frac{1}{100R^2}}{\frac{1}{R^2}}=\frac{1}{100}

This means the new force will be \frac{1}{100} of the original force.

How many grams of methane gas (CH4) need to be combusted to produce 12.5 L water vapor at 301 K and 1.1 atm? Show all of the wor
tangare [24]
Answer is: 4.45 grams of methane gas <span>need to be combusted</span>.
Balanced chemical reaction: CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O.
Ideal gas law: p·V = n·R·T.<span>
p = 1.1 atm.
T = 301 K.
V(H</span>₂O) <span>= 12.5 L.
R = 0,08206 L·atm/mol·K.
</span>n(H₂O) = <span>1.1 atm · 12.5 L ÷ 0,08206 L·atm/mol·K · 301 K.
</span>n(H₂O) = 0.556 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(H₂O) : n(CH₄) = 2 : 1.
n(CH₄) = 0.556 mol ÷ 2 = 0.278 mol.
m(CH₄) = 0.278 mol · 16 g/mol.
m(CH₄) = 4.448 g.

Answer:

Which of these sentences from the excerpt most strongly supports the correct answer to Question 5?

Answer choices for the above question

Quesiton 5 says

Which of these inferences about the author’s point of view is best supported by the entire excerpt?

From: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" lesson

A. “She’s simply called HeLa, the code name given to the world’s first immortal human cells—her cells, cut from her cervix just months before she died.”

B. “I’ve spent years staring at that photo, wondering what kind of life she led, what happened to her children, and what she’d think about cells from her cervix living on forever—bought, sold, packaged, and shipped by the trillions to laboratories around the world.”

C. “One scientist estimates that if you could pile all HeLa cells ever grown onto a scale, they’d weigh more than 50 million metric tons—an inconceivable number, given that an individual cell weighs almost nothing.”

D. “All of the stories mentioned that scientists had begun doing research on Henrietta’s children, but the Lackses didn’t seem to know what that research was

The Ba(OH)2 dissociates as Ba+2 + 2 OH-. H2SO4 dissociates as 2 H+ + SO4 -2.
suter [353]

Answer:

The balanced equations for those dissociations are:

Ba(OH)₂(aq) → Ba²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻ (aq)

H₂SO₄ (aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄⁻²(aq)

Explanation:

As a strong base, the barium hidroxide gives OH⁻ to the solution

As a strong acid, the sulfuric acid gives H⁺ to the solution

Ba(OH)₂, is a strong base so the dissociation is complete.

H₂SO₄ is considerd a strong acid, but only the first deprotonation is strong.

The second proton that is released, has a weak dissociation.

H₂SO₄ (aq) → H⁺(aq) + HSO₄⁻(aq)

HSO₄⁻(aq) ⇄ H⁺ (aq) + SO₄⁻² (aq)       Ka
