A student added 3 gms one substance in a beaker and then added 4 gms of another substance. A chemical reaction took place in the

uncovered beaker, after the reaction the beaker weighed 5 gms which of the following is the best explanation?
A Some of the mass of the reactants was lost as heat and evaporated into the air.
B. The reaction produce a gas as a product.
C. Some of the reactantants were destroyed as when the chemicals were added.

Answer:

B. The reaction produce a gas as a product.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, the total mass of reactants must be equal to the total mass of products because mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

The total mass of the reactants is 7 grams. The total mass of the products and the beaker is 5 grams. This means that the mass of products is less than the mass of reactants.

The only plausible explanation for this is that the reaction produced a gaseous product which escaped because the system is an open system thereby leading to a  lesser measured mass of products since mass can not be created nor destroyed.

What is the pH of a solution that has a hydroxide ion concentration of 1.0×10−9 M?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{pH = 5.00}}

Explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the pOH

pOH =-log[OH⁻]

pOH =-log(1.0 × 10⁻⁹)

pOH = 9.00

Step 2. Calculate the pH

pH + pOH = 14.00

pH + 9.00 = 14.00

\boxed{\textbf{pH = 5.00}}

a remote control toy jet fighter has a mass of 5 kg and can travel up to 60 m/s. what is the kinetic energy of the toy jet fight
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

9000J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the jet fighter  = 5kg

Velocity  = 60m/s

Unknown:

Kinetic energy of the jet fighter  = ?

Solution:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy due to motion of the body.

It is mathematically expressed as;

    K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

 So;

     K.E  =  \frac{1}{2}  x 5 x 60²  = 9000J

A radioactive isotope has a half-life of 10 minutes.
stellarik [79]

Answer: The time for activity to fell from 800 counts per second to 200 counts per second is 20 minutes

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) for finding the rate constant:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{10min}=0.0693min^{-1}

b) for activity to fell from 800 counts per second to 200 counts per second.

t=\frac{2.303}{0.0693}\log\frac{800}{200}

t=20minutes

The time for activity to fell from 800 counts per second to 200 counts per second is 20 minutes
