Why is alchemy not considered a science

Chemistry

That is because Alchemy is not based on real research and facts, but rather on magic and occultism. Sure, many things in it have been used as basics for some chemistry, but most is false and incorrect.

How does intertia affect gymnastics
Olegator [25]
Inertia is resistance to changes in motion. Which means if you are at rest it takes an external force to get you moving. And once you are moving it takes an external force to change the direction of that motion. 

<span>For a person doing gymnastics the point that is subject to the above statement is her center of mass (roughly her belly button) . </span>

<span>So for example, once you launch into the air, gravity is the only significant force on you. It keeps you from traveling out into space by pulling you down and the trajectory of your belly button is a parabola. Now there is nothing you can do with your muscles (internal forces) to change that trajectory, even though you can do twists & turns about the center of mass. The height and range of the parabolic trajectory is determined by the angle & speed at which you initially launch yourself.
_____________________________________________________________
</span><span>inertia is one of newtons laws of motion so an object in motion tends to remain in motion until another force acts upon it that is what newton said when you are doing a back hand spring it is easier to keep going then to stop
</span><span>_____________________________________________________________

Hope this helps!!! :D

H3PO4 + Ca(OH)2 → Ca(H2PO4)2 + H2O
aniked [119]

Given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Balance the following equation:

H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + H_2O

Answer: The balanced chemical equation is as follows.

2H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + 2H_2O

Explanation:

When a chemical equation contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side then this equation is known as balanced equation.

For example, H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + H_2O

Number of atoms on reactant side:

H = 5

P = 1

O = 6

Ca = 1

Number of atoms on product side:

H = 6

P = 2

O = 9

Ca = 1

In order to balance this equation, we will multiply H_3PO_4 by 2 on reactant side and we will multiply H_2O by 2 on product side. Hence, the balanced chemical equation is as follows.

2H_3PO_4 + Ca(OH)_2 \rightarrow Ca(H_2PO_4)_2 + 2H_2O

If 4.50 l of water vapor at 50.2 °c and 0.121 atm reacts with excess iron, how many grams of iron(iii) oxide will be produced?
Flura [38]
When the balanced equation for this reaction is:
2Fe + 3H2O → Fe2O3  +  3H2

and according to the vapour pressure formula:
PV= nRT
when we have P is the vapor pressure of H2O= 0.121 atm
and V is the volume of H2O = 4.5 L
and T in Kelvin = 52.5 +273 = 325.5 K
R= 0.08205 atm-L/g mol-K
So we can get n H2O
So, by substitution:
n H2O = PV/RT
            = (0.121*4.5)/(0.08205 * 325.5) = 0.02038 gmol
n Fe2O3 = 0.02038 * (1Fe2O3/ 3H2O) = 0.00679 gmol
Note: we get (1FeO3/3H2O) ratio from the balanced equation.
we can get the Mass of Fe2O3 from this formula:
Mass = number of moles * molecular weight       
  when we have a molecular weight of Fe2O3 = 159.7
          =  0.00679 * 159.7 = 1.084 g
∴ 1.084 gm of Fe2O3 will produced
