Three reasons why friction is needed

Chemistry
1 answer:
ivanzaharov [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1:Without friction, we would not be able to stop walking since we would just keep slipping like on ice.

2:Without friction, objects would just slip and fall with a simple blow of air

3:And finally, without friction, we wouldn't be able to use machinery like cars and etc since they would just fly off

Explanation:

Friction can be a useful force because it prevents our shoes from slipping on the pavement when we walk and stops car tires skidding on the road. When you walk, friction is caused between the tread on shoes and the ground. This friction acts to grip the ground and prevent sliding. Sometimes we want to reduce friction.

Use the pop-up menus to label the following statements as either True of False.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

1 True

2. True

3. True

4. True

5. False

Explanation:

1. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl)  is a weak acid that forms when chlorine dissolves in water, and is partially dissociated, forming hypochlorite. HOCl is considered a strong oxidizing agent responsible for the killing action of germs in chlorine solutions.

2. Acetic acid is also known as ethanoic acid. It has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell, and is generally considered a weak acid. in a concentrated form, acetic acid can be corrosive.

3/4 . Methylene chloride is an organochloride compound with the formula CH2Cl2. It is  a colorless, volatile liquid with a moderately sweet aroma is widely used as a solvent. It is normally stable, non-flammable and non-explosive when mixed with air at temperatures below 100 °C, but its vapor is flammable only when present in relatively high concentrations of about 14% to 22% in air. Research shows that it is very much possibly carcinogenic, and it has been linked to cancer of the lungs, liver, pancreas, breast cancer and salivary gland cancer in laboratory animals.

5. Laboratory and medical waste are not to be disposed in the trash with regular wastes, as they are potentially toxic. Special disposal methods and agencies exists to take away such wastes.

How many moles of water are produced when 3.45 moles of KMnO4 react? Give your answer to the nearest 0.1 moles. moles H2O
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

13.8 moles of water produced.

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of KMnO₄ = 3.45 mol

Moles of water = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

16HCl + 2KMnO₄ → 2KCl + 2MnCl₂ + 5Cl₂ + 8H₂O

Moler ratio of water and KMnO₄:

             KMnO₄       :        H₂O

                2             :          8

               3.45         :         8/2×3.45 = 13.8 mol

Hence, 3.45 moles of KMnO₄ will produced 13.8 mol of water.

A gas that was cooled to 200 Kelvin has a volume of 65.8 L. If its initial volume was 132.4 L, what was its initial temperature?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Initial temperature, T1 = 99.4 Kelvin

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

  • Initial volume, V1 = 65.8 Litres
  • Final temperature, T2 = 200 Kelvin
  • Final volume, V2 = 132.4 Litres

To find the initial temperature (T1), we would use Charles' law;

Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Charles' law is given by the formula;

\frac {V}{T} = K

\frac {V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac {V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Making T1 as the subject formula, we have;

T_{1} = \frac {V_{1}T_{2}}{V_{2}}

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

T_{1} = \frac {65.8 * 200}{132.4}

T_{1} = \frac {13160}{132.4}

<em>Initial temperature, T1 = 99.4 Kelvin</em>
