Answer:

1.An element consists of the same kind of atoms while a compound is composed of different kinds of atoms.

2.A monoatomic element cannot be split up physically or chemically but a compound can be split up into new substances by chemical means.

3.Only limited number of elements are known in an element whiles number of known compounds are quite large.

4.The property of an element is the property of the atom whiles the property of a compound is quite different from that of it's constituents.

5 . Elements are represented by symbols and numbers.for example Sodium is represented by Na whiles compounds are represented by their chemical formula.for example,Salt is represented by the formula NaCl.

if pete (mass =90.00kg) weighs himself and finds that he weighs 30.0 pounds, how far away from the earth is he?

Svet_ta [14]

Here we know that mass of the person is 90 kg

His weight is given as 30 lbf

so here we can convert it into Newton as we know that

1 lbf = 4.45 N

Now from above conversion

$30 lbf = 30 \times 4.45 = 133.45 N$

now we can use this to find the gravity at this height

$mg = 133.45$

$90\times g = 133.45$

$g = 1.49 m/s^2$

now we know that with height gravity varies as

$g' = g(\frac{R}{R+H})^2$

$1.49 = 9.8(\frac{6.37\times 10^6}{6.37\times 10^6 + h})^2$

$h = 1.0 \times 10^7 m$

so above is the height from the surface of earth
