E ground pushes you forward. But that interaction is friction. Reduce friction and it doesn't matter how strong your legs are, the surface is incapable of pushing you accordingly. The coefficient of static friction is very low so it is easy to slide your foot rather than push.

In the space, show a correct numerical setup for calculating the number of moles of CO2 present in 11 grams of CO2
makvit [3.9K]

Ans: Moles of CO2 = 0.25 moles

<u>Given:</u>

Mass of CO2 = 11 g

<u>To determine </u>

Moles of CO2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Moles = mass/molecular mass

Molecular mass of CO2 = 44 g/mol

Moles of CO2 = 11 g/44 g.mol-1 = 0.25 moles

Identify the correct formula for Beryllium Phosphate.
ivanzaharov [21]
<span>The correct formula for Beryllium phosphate is Be3(PO4)2 Beryllium has a charge of +2 and phosphate has a charge of -3. So to make the charge equal to zero, 3x +2 = 6, and 2 x-3 = -6 -6 + +6 = 0</span>

Determine the volume, in liters, occupied by 0.015 molecules of oxygen at STp?
Arlecino [84]

5.58 X 10^{-25} Litres is the volume, in liters, occupied by 0.015 molecules of oxygen at STP.

Explanation:

Data given:

molecules of oxygen = 0.015

number of moles of oxygen =?

temperature at STP = 273  K

Pressure at STP = 1 atm

volume = ?

R (gas constant) = 0.08201 L atm/mole K

to convert molecules to moles,

number of moles = \frac{molecules}{Avagadro's number}

number of moles = 2.49 x 10^{-26}

Applying the ideal gas law since the oxygen is at STP,

PV = nRT

rearranging the equation:

V = \frac{nRT}{P}

putting the values in the rearranged equation:

V = \frac{2.49 X10^{-26}   X 0.08201 X 273}{1}

V = 5.58 X 10^{-25} Litres.

A change resulting in one or more new substances being formed is a?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

C. Chemical change

Explanation:

A physical change is where something is changed but it doesnt affect the build up of the chemical. For example, if you broke sticks and threw them on the ground, that would be a physical change because the change is happening to the physical being of the object and not its chemical buildup. However, if you lit those sticks on fire, that would be considered a chemical change because you end up with two substances, ash and the remnants of the stick. A nuclear reaction would result in something blowing up so its not that. And a physical property is like what it looks like or how it smells. Hope I helped you!

4.Identify each substance in the following word equation as a reactant or a product
Anastaziya [24]

Explanation:

4.                 limestone heat lime + carbon dioxide

The reactants in this expression above is limestone

The products of the reaction is carbon dioxide and lime

Reactant is the species that gives the product and it is usually found on the left hand side of the expression.

The product is the substance on the right hand side of the expression that forms through the experiment.

Heat is used to facilitate the reaction.

5. An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is given off.

An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is absorbed in the process.

An exothermic reaction is always warmer after the reaction whereas an endothermic reaction is colder at the end of the reaction.
