Compare and Contrast the two common forces of gravity and friction.

Chemistry
1 answer:
____ [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Gravity always pulls objects such as a desk, book or person down. Thus, when you jump gravity causes you to land on the ground. Friction, however, doesn't pull objects down

How do you calculate the number of photons having a wavelength of 10.0 micrometers required to produce 1.0 kilojoules of energy
shtirl [24]

To calculate this,

We know that energy is 1 photon 
E = hc/wavelenth 
wavelength of 10.0 m 

Solution:
h = 6.626 x 10^-34 Jsec 
C = 2.9979 x 10^8 m/sec 
E = 6.626 10^-34 * 2.9979 10^8 / 10 = 1.9864 10^-26J 

Then, the number of photons is computed by:

n = 1000 / 1.9864 10^-26 = 5.04 10^28 photons

When a strip of magnesium metal is placed in an aqueous solution of copper(II) nitrate, elemental copper coats the surface of th
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

1. 2+ (Cu^{2+}).

2. 0 (Cu^0).

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the described chemical reaction is a redox reaction in fact, since the oxidation states of both magnesium and copper change as shown due to the displacement:

Mg(s)+Cu(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Mg(NO_3)_2(aq)+Cu(s)

Therefore:

1. Since copper is the cation in the copper (II) nitrate, the (II) means that its charge is 2+ (Cu^{2+}).

2. Since copper is alone, it means no electrons are being neither shared not given, its charge is 0 (Cu^0).

Best regards.

Use the drop-down menus to complete each sentence.
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Explanation:

Elements that belong to same group contains same number of valence electrons. Hence, they tend to show similar chemical properties.

When we move across a period then number of electrons get added to the same shell. As a result, there will be no increase in size of elements.

Also, metals are the elements that belong to group 1, 2 and d-block elements are also known as metals. Metallic character of elements decreases when we move left to right in a periodic table.

As most reactive metals are placed on the left side of periodic table.

Since, size of elements increases on moving down the group. So, an element is able to easily lose its valence electrons because of less force of attraction between its nucleus and valence electrons.

As a result, there will be increase in reactivity of metals on moving down the group.

Thus, we can conclude that given sentences are as follows.

  • Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
  • Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
  • Metallic elements become less reactive as you move left to right in a period.
  • Metallic elements become more reactive as you move top to bottom in a group.

After 11.5 days, 12.5% of a sample of radon-222 that originally weighed 42g remains. What is the half-life of this isotope?
Bond [772]
Half-life is defined as the amount of time it takes a given quantity to decrease to half of its initial value.  The equation to describe the decay is
Nt=N0(1/2) ^{t/t(1/2)}  where N0 is the initial quantity, Nt is the remaining quantity after time t, t1/2 is the half-time.  So work out the equation, t1/2 = t (-ln2)/ln(Nt/N0) = 11.5*(-ln2)/ln(12.5/100) = 3.83 days
