The kinetic energy of a 10.3 g golf ball traveling at 48.0 m/s is

To work out the kinetic energy of an object, you use the formula:

E = 0.5 x (mass) x (velocity)^2

One important thing, though. The units MUST be consistent. Mass needs to be in kilograms, and velocity in metres per second.

To convert the mass form grams to kilograms, we need to divide it by 1000, getting 0.0103 kg. Since the velocity is already in the units we need, we can just plug the numbers into the equation to get:

E = 0.5 x (0.0103 kg) x (48.0)^2 = 11.8656 J = 11.9 J, to 3 significant figures

Hope I helped! xx

Iodine monochloride (ICl) has a higher boiling point than bromine (Br2) partly because iodine monochloride is a(n)

tekilochka [14]

Answer: polar molecule.

Explanation:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.

Bromine $(Br_2)$ is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.

When air pressure is high what is the weather like

Basile [38]

Answer:

high-pressure systems normally associate with dry weather and mostly clear skies. This usually brings some light winds of cool, dry air, and brings fair weather.

If a certain gas occupies a volume of 10. L when the applied pressure is 5.0 atm , find the pressure when the gas occupies a vol

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

20L is the new volume

Explanation:

In this case, moles and T° from the gas remain constant. This is the formula we must apply, to solve this:

P₁ . V₁ = P₂ . V₂

5 atm . 10 L = P₂ . 2.5L

P₂ = (5 atm . 10 L) / 2.5L →20L

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

3.77 mol K₃N

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Molar Mass of K - 39.10 g/mol

Molar Mass of N - 14.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of K₃N - 3(39.10) + 14.01 = 131.31 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

Set up: $\displaystyle 3.77 \ mol \ K_3N(\frac{131.31 \ g \ K_3N}{1 \ mol \ K_3N})$
Multiply/Divide: $\displaystyle 495.039 \ g \ K_3N$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

495.039 g K₃N ≈ 495 g K₃N
