First, 1 foot = 30.48cm (12 inches x 2.54 cm/inch=30.48 cm). So, 8,5 ft = 8.5 x 30.48cc=259.08 cm, 7.5 ft = 7.5 x 30.48=228.6cm and 9.5/12=0.791ft x 30.48 =24.11cm. So, in cc, 259.08 x 228.6 x 24.11 = 1,427,931.3 cc. Since 1 cc of water = 1 gram then we have 1,427,931`grams or 1427. 931 kg x 2.2 lbs/kg = 3141 pounds of water or 1.57 tonnes of water so with this size of waterbed if  upstairs the house structure must be able to withstand this stress.

Virty [35]
Explain whether this is a chemical or physical change, and why. does it involve elements, compounds, mixtures, or pure substances?

If the process involves a chemical reaction then surely it is a chemical change where new bonds are being formed from the collision of the reactants.

Describe how many atoms are involved before and after. what do you notice about the number of atoms?

From the balanced chemical reaction, we see that we need 1 mol of N2 gas and 3 mol of H2 in order to form 2 mol of NH3.

Whenever a continuous bell alarm sounds in the Chemistry building:
deff fn [24]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

This is essentially one of the several safety measures in the chemical laboratory. This particular approach is one used in the case of fire eventualities.

A is wrong

This is because in the advent of a fire incident, it is necessary to evacuate the building as a whole. Meeting in the hallway is still within the building which is not the right thing to do when there’s a fire outbreak. Occupants are expected to leave the building immediately

B. Is also wrong. Taking time to pack your belongings might make you be caught in the inferno. It is expected that you leave the building at once

A poundal is the force required to accelerate a mass of 1 lbm at a rate of 1 ft/s2, and a slug is the mass of an object that wil
Darya [45]
Remember the formula as per the second Law of Newton: F = m*a

And also remember that the weight is the force with which the mass is attracted by the planet (or satellite in the case of the moon).

With that information you can answer the questions:

a) Weight = F = m*a

m = 175 slugs = 175 lbm

i) Earth

a = 32.17 ft/s^2

Weight on Earth = 175 lbm * 32.17 ft / s^2 = 5,629.75 poundal

ii) Moon

a = [1/6] 32.17 ft/s^2

Weight on the Moon = [1/6]*5,629.75 poundal = 938.29 poundal

b) Force = 355 poundal
m = 25.0 slug

a in m/s^2 = ?

First calculate the force in ft/s^2

F = m*a => a = F/m = 355 poundal / 25.0 slug = 14.2 ft/s^2

Conversion:

14.2 ft / s^2 * [ 0.3048 m/ft] = 4.32816 m/s^2

Answer: 4.33 m/s^2

Distinguish between sugar and non-sugar with examples.
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Reducing sugars are sugars where the anomeric carbon has an OH group attached that can reduce other compounds. Non-reducing sugars do not have an OH group attached to the anomeric carbon so they cannot reduce other compounds. ... Maltose and lactose are reducing sugars, while sucrose is a non-reducing sugar
