Answer:

B. Pluto's orbit is not clear of other objects

Explanation:

Pluto is a dwarf planet and considered as ninth planet of the solar system.

A large body whose orbit do not clear the neighbourhood is classified as a dwarf planet. The gravity of Neptune limit the orbit of Pluto and shares its orbital neighbourhood with many Kuiper belt objects.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. Pluto's orbit is not clear of other objects".

_____ energy depends on the motion or position of an object.

Dafna1 [17]

Answer: Mechanical energy depends on the motion or position of an object.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy (stored energy of position).

You have 500 mL of 5 M HCl already made. You need to dilute the solution to 1 M HCl. How much water will you need to add?

hram777 [196]

Answer:

You need to add 400mL of water

Explanation:

500mL = 5 M HCI That means that if you divide both sides by 5

100mL = 1 M HCI If you need ot get rid of 4 M HCI then you add 400 mL of water because that is what it is equal to

For the reaction at 298 K, 2NO2(g) N2O4(g) the values of ΔH° and ΔS° are -58.03 kJ and -176.6 J/K, respectively. Calculate the v

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

$\Delta G^o=-5.4032 kJ$

The temperature for $\Delta G^o=0[/tex is [tex]T=328.6 K$

Explanation:

The three thermodinamic properties (enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs's energy) are linked in the following formula:

$\Delta G^o=\Delta H^o + T*\Delta S^o$

Where:

$\Delta G^o$ is Gibbs's energy in kJ

$\Delta H^o$ is the enthalpy in kJ

$\Delta S^o$ is the entropy in kJ/K

$T$ is the temperature in K

Solving:

$\Delta G^o=-58.03 kJ - 298K*-0.1766 kJ/K$

$\Delta G^o=-5.4032 kJ$

For $\Delta G^o=0$ :

$0=\Delta H^o - T*\Delta S^o$

$\Delta H^o= T*\Delta S^o$

$T=\frac{\Delta H^o}{\Delta S^o}$

$T=\frac{-58.03 kJ}{-0.1766 kJ/K}$

$T=328.6 K$

Which is the best explanation for what keeps a balloon inflated Select one: a. gas particles colliding with the inside of the ba

goldfiish [28.3K]

The best explanation would be A. The reason the balloon is inflated is because its filled with gas, and the gas particles collide with the interior of the balloon to give it its shape.

In the following reaction 2C6H6 + 15O2 12CO2 + 6H2O how many grams of oxygen will react with 10.47 grams of benzene (C6H6)?

IRINA_888 [86]

$2 C_{6}H_{6} + 15O_{2} ----->\ \textgreater \ 12CO_{2} + 6H_{2}O


$

$mol of benzene = \frac{mass}{Mr}$
= $\frac{10.47g}{(6 * 12) (6 * 1) g/mol}$
= 0.134 mol

mol of oxygen:
ratio of $C_{6} H_{6} : O_{2}$
= 2 : 15
= 1 : 7.5

: . mol of $O_{2}$ = 0.134mol * 7.5
= 1.01 mol

Mass of Oxygen = mol * Mr
= 1.01 mol * (16*2) g/mol
= 32.22g

Note: Mr is molar mass
