Which variable increases when potential energy increases?

Chemistry
1 answer:
beks73 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Height and mass

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of a body.

It is mathematically expressed as:

 Potential energy  = m g h

m is the mass of the body

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the body

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface is a constant.

As mass and height of a body increases, the acceleration due to gravity will also increase.

Sodium thiosulfate, Na 2S 2O 3, is used as a "fixer" in black and white photography. Identify the reducing agent in the reaction
Tatiana [17]

Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

Explanation:

A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.

In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in S_{2}O^{2-}_{3} is +2 and I_{2}(aq) has 0 oxidation state.

In S_{4}O^{2-}_{6}(aq) oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in 2I^{-}(aq) oxidation state of I is -1.

Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.

Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

A gas has a volume of 5.0 L at a pressure of 50 KPa. What happens to the volume when the pressure is increased to 125?
Alexeev081 [22]
The volume becomes two. You have to use the equation P1 x V1 = P2 x V2 
P is pressure and V is volume.
P1 = 50     P2 = 125
V1 = 5       V2 = v (we don't know what it is)
Then set up the equation:
50 times 5 = 125 times v
250 = 125v
the divide both sides by 125 and isolate v
2 = v
Therefore the volume is decreased to 2.
Also, Boyle's Law explains this too: Volume and pressure are inversely related, This means that when one goes up the other goes down (ie when pressure increases volume decreases and vice versa). Becuase the pressure went up from 50 KPa tp 125 KPa the volume had to decrease.

The pressure of a sample of argon gas was increased from 3.14 atm to 7.98 at a constant temperature. If the final volume of argo
noname [10]

Answer:

<h2>36.09 L</h2>

Explanation:

The initial volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume.

Since we're finding the initial volume

V_1 =  \frac{P_2V_2}{P_1}  \\

We have

V_1 =  \frac{7.98 \times 14.2}{3.14} =   \frac{113.316}{3.14}  \\  = 36.0878...

We have the final answer as

<h3>36.09 L</h3>

Hope this helps you

Why do different isotopes of an element generally have the same physical and chemical properties?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is because they have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

Explanation:

Isotopes are atoms of the same element but differ only in the number of neutrons in the nucleus, i.e. they have same atomic number but different mass number.

Mass number is affected as they have different number of neutrons, thus effecting their physical properties.

The number of electrons and protons are same, i.e. their atomic number is same and thus their chemical properties are same as chemical properties are determined by the atom’s electronic configuration and that relates to number of protons.
