Which is an example of an object increasing its kinetic energy

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The answer to this question is the A choice. A rocket before launch.

Explanation:

In the definition of kinetic energy, it says: In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.

If element x forms the oxides xo and x2o3 the oxidation numbers of element x are

Deffense [45]

Answer:

b) +2 and +3.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the molecular formulas:

$XO$

And:

$X_2O_3$

We can relate the subscripts with the oxidation states by knowing that they are crossed when the compound is formed, for that reason, we notice that oxygen oxidation state should be -2 for both cases and the oxidation state of X in the first formula must be +2 since both X and O has one as their subscript as they were simplified:

$X^{+2}O^{-2}$

Moreover, for the second case the oxidation state of X should be +3 in order to obtain 3 as the subscript of oxygen:

$X_2^{+3}O_3^{-2}$

Thus, answer is b)+2 and +3

Best regards.

A sample of 211 g of iron (III) bromide is reacted with

Alisiya [41]

FeBr₃ ⇒ limiting reactant

mol NaBr = 1.428

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction

2FeBr₃ + 3Na₂S → Fe₂S₃ + 6NaBr

Limiting reactant⇒ smaller ratio (mol divide by coefficient reaction)
