What can we say about Gamma waves on<br> the electromagnetic spectrum?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

If 2.40 g of KNO3 reacts with sufficient sulfur (S8) and carbon (C), how much P-V work will the gases do against an external pre
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

-112.876J

Explanation:

In order to solve this question, we would need to incorporate Stoichiometry, which involves using relationships between reactants and/or products in a chemical reaction to determine desired quantitative data.

Here's a balanced equation for the reaction:

16KNO_3(s) + 24C(s) + S_8(s)    \to 24CO_2(g) + 8N_2(g) + 8K_2S(s)

Let us define P - V work as;

w_{pv} = - P_{external}  \triangle Volume

where  \triangle (Volume) = (V_{final} - V_{initial})

External pressure is given as  1.00atm , therefore the work solely depends on the change in volume and since the reactants are solids, none of the reactants contribute to the volume. Hence,  V_i = 0.

To find the volume of the products, we need to first find the amount of moles of the product made from  2.40_gKNO_3, using the molar mass of  KNO_3  which is 101.1032 g/mol  

2.40_gKNO_3 . {\frac{1molKNO_3}{101.1032_g}} = 0.0237molKNO_3

Now let us convert moles of  KNO_3  into moles of CO_2 and N_2  using the stoichiometric ratios from our balanced equation of the reaction.

0.0237molKNO_3 . {\frac{24molCO_2}{16molKNO_3}} = 0.0356molCO_2

0.0237molKNO_3 . {\frac{8molN_2}{16molKNO_3}} = 0.01185molN_2

K_2S is not factored into the volume calculation because it is a solid.

Now let us also convert the moles of  CO_2  and  N_2 into grams using their respective molar masses.

0.0356molCO_2 . {\frac{44.01_g}{1molCO_2}} = 1.567_gCO_2

0.01185molN_2 . {\frac{28.014_g}{1molN_2}} = 0.332_gN_2

We will now proceed to convert grams into volume using the density values provided.

1.567_gCO_2 . {\frac{1L}{1.830_g}} = 0.856LCO_2

0.332_gN_2 . {\frac{1L}{1.165_g}} = 0.285LN_2

Summing up the two volumes, we get the final volume

0.856L + 0.258L = 1.114L = V_f

Plugging everything into the w_{pv} equation, we get:

w_{pv} = -1atm(1.114L - 0L) = -1.114L.atm

Finally, let us convert L.atm into joules using the conversion rate of;

1L.atm = 101.325J\\-1.114L.atm. {\frac{101.325J}{1L.atm}} = -112.876J

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 12 kg and moves with a velocity of 10 m/s
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

600 J

Explanation:

The formula to find the kinetic energy of an object is \frac{1}{2}mV^2

  • m = mass in kg
  • V = velocity in m/s
  • KE is measured in Joules just as all other forms of energy.

Now, let's plug in the variables we're given and simplify.

  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(10)^2
  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(100)
  • (6)(100)
  • (600)

Thus, the answer is 600 Joules.
