if you increased the mass of planet by 2 what would happen to the gravitational force of the planet ​
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

One way to find out is to change “passive mass” - the dirt and rocks of Earth - and convert it into “active mass” - add energy “E” to it. If we increase the energy “E” we will increase its mass. The key is, how do you turn “passive mass” into “active mass” by adding energy “E” to the “passive mass”? After all, isn’t “passive mass” of the Earth just the dirt and rocks that make up the planet?

What is the percentage composition of carbon and hydrogen in ethane(c2h6,molecular mass 30.0)<br>​
My name is Ann [436]

Answer

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%

Explanation:

2C+3H2-C2H6

nC=12, nH=1, nC2H6=30

2moles of C-1mole of C2H6

3moles of H-1 mole of C2H6

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%
