The reality is that the mechanical energy is supposed to dissapear in this case. The mechanical energy is replaced with the knietic energy. <span>If starting from rest, the mechanical energy of the skier is entirely in the form of potential energy. As the skier begins the descent down the hill, potential energy is lost and kinetic energy is gained.</span>

stoichiometric amounts of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas react in a calorimeter to produce 5.00 g of ammonia gas. the calorimeter
mario62 [17]
First, we determine the energy released by the reaction using the heat capacity and change in temperature as such:

Q = cΔT
Q = 32.16 * 0.42
Q = 13.51 kJ

Next, we determine the moles of ammonia formed as the heat of formation is expressed in "per mole".

Moles = mass / molecular weight
Moles = 5/17
Moles = 0.294

Heat of formation = 13.51 / 0.294

The heat of formation of ammonia is 45.95 kJ/mol

A gas mixture contains HBr, NO2, and C2H6 at STP. If a tiny hole is made in the container, which gas will effuse fastest? NO2 C2
Anarel [89]

Answer:

C2H6

Explanation:

Let us first consider the molar Masses of each gas

HBr - 80.91 g/mol

NO2 - 46.0055 g/mol

C2H6 - 30.07 g/mol

We must remember that the greater the molar mass of a gas the lesser its velocity and average kinetic energy.

Looking at the gases listed, C2H6 have the highest average kinetic energy at this temperature since it has the lowest molecular mass. This reasoning is directly derived from Graham's law of diffusion in gases.

Hence C2H6 will effuse fastest when a hole is made in the container. It also possess the greatest average kinetic energy because it has the lowest molecular mass.

A 12400. mL container holds a sample of argon gas at 35.00C and
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

0.574moles

Explanation:

Using the general gas equation;

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (Litres)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (Kelvin)

According to the information provided in the question;

- Volume (V) = 12400mL = 12400/1000 = 12.4L

- Pressure (P) = 890mmHg = 890/760 = 1.17atm

- Temperature (T) = 35°C = 35 + 273 = 308K

Hence, using PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n = 1.17 × 12.4 ÷ 0.0821 × 308

n = 14.508 ÷ 25.287

n = 0.574moles

Therefore, the number of moles of argon gas in the cylinder is 0.574moles

Which type of acetylcholine receptor is present on postganglionic neurons
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Mescarinic and Nicotinic

Explanation:

Postganglionic fibers can be present in both sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions, their main difference resides in how in the sympathetic division the postganglionic fibers are adrenergic and use norepinephrine (noradrenalin) as a neurotransmitter, in the parasympathetic division, on the other hand, fibers are cholinergic and use acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter, the<em> postganglionic neurons of sweat glands release acetylcholine for the activation of muscarinic receptors, another kind of receptor for acetylcholine are nicotinic receptors </em>that act as transmembrane sodium/potassium channels, while muscarinic receptors need to act through intracellular proteins.

I hope you find this informatiou useful and interesting! Good luck!
