Define the term inertia

Chemistry
1 answer:
n200080 [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Enertia is an integral part of Newton's first law of motion.

It is the tendency of an object to <u>stay at rest</u> or <u>to continue moving</u> until and unless <u>any external unbalanced force</u>, (like, applied force or force of tension or frictional force ) is applied to either move it from rest or change its speed(in other words, accelerate it!!).

Example below, is of ball at rest (fig1) and if this ball is moving straight on a frictionless surface(like ice) it will keep moving!! until, we push it or pull it.

A sample of 42 mL of carbon dioxide gas was placed in a piston in order to maintain a constant 101 kPa of pressure.
Lilit [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 33.4 ml

Explanation:

Data

volume 1 = V1 = 42 ml

temperature 1 = T1 = 20°C

temperature 2 = T2 = -60°C

Volume 2 = V2 = x

Process

1.- Convert celsius to kelvin

T1 = 20 + 273 = 293°K

T2 = -60 + 273 = 233°K

2.- Use the Charles' law to solve this problem

               \frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}

Solve for V2

                V2 = \frac{V1T2}{T1}

3.- Substitution

               V2 = \frac{(42)(233)}{293}

4.- Simplification

                V2 = \frac{9786}{293}

5.- Result

                V2 = 33.4ml

Which statement best describes the organelles in a cell
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

(2) Organelles must work together and their

activities must be coordinated

Explanation:

Organelles are usually located in cells. They are saddled with the role of performing specific functions in the cells for the overall functioning of life. In eukaryotic cells, the organelles are membrane bounded but in prokaryotic or primitive cells such is not the case.

Examples of cell organelles are ribosome, food vacuole, nucleus e.t.c. Just like organs in the body, organelles must work together in order to enhance life.

• An element in group 2, period 4 has similar properties with
babymother [125]

Answer:  Elements in Group 2

Explanation:  The periodic table was arranged by Dmitri Mendeleev specifically  around similarites in their chemical behaviors.  He found that as atomic number increases, at some point an element starts to react in a manner similar to a previous one.  When that happened, he would place the larger element under the smaller one, and eventually noticed a periodicity in the table.  Elements in a column (Groups) had similiar chemical properties.  We know today that these similarities are due to the electron configuration, and that these configurations repeat themselves.  He left gaps in the table when he could find an existing element with properties similar to others in that group.  I big leap of faith, but it worked.  Elements for those missing boxes were eventually discovered.

if the spin of one electron in an orbital is clockwise , what is the spin of the other electron in that orbital
nata0808 [166]

Here we have to get the spin of the other electron present in a orbital which already have an electron which has clockwise spin.

The electron will have anti-clockwise notation.

We know from the Pauli exclusion principle, no two electrons in an atom can have all the four quantum numbers i.e. principal quantum number (n), azimuthal quantum number (l), magnetic quantum number (m) and spin quantum number (s) same. The importance of the principle also restrict the possible number of electrons may be present in a particular orbital.

Let assume for an 1s orbital the possible values of four quantum numbers are n = 1, l = 0, m = 0 and s = \frac{+}{-}\frac{1}{2}.

The exclusion principle at once tells us that there may be only two unique sets of these quantum numbers:

1, 0, 0, +\frac{1}{2} and 1, 0, 0, -\frac{1}{2}.

Thus if one electron in an orbital has clockwise spin the other electron will must be have anti-clockwise spin.

How do scientists predict the polarity of molecules, the distribution of non-polar and polar molecules?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

Polar molecules interact with other molecules of similar polarity to form solutions. Non-polar molecules do not interact the same way.
