Zinc metal (Zn) and sulfur powder (s) undergo a chemical reaction to form zinc sulfide (ZnS) which equation represents this chem
dexar [7]

Zinc metal (Zn) reacts with sulfur (S) to create zinc sulfide (ZnS), and the chemical reaction is: Zn (s) + S (s) = ZnS (s).

Importance of Zinc (Zn) and sulfur (S):

  • Zinc(Zn) is a vital element that our systems need to absorb food and nutrients as well as create healthy skin and bones. Zinc(Zn) ions play a crucial role in a number of the body's enzymes.
  • Sulfur(S) is a pale yellow, tasteless, brittle solid that is also necessary for life. It is found in many proteins as well as the amino acids cysteine and methionine. It is a trace element found in bone minerals, bodily fluids, and lipids.

Chemical reaction -

In this experiment, heating a zinc(Zn) and sulfur(S) combination causes an interesting chemical reaction. A blinding flash of light, hot sparks, a hissing sound, and a cloud of white smoke in the shape of a mushroom are produced.

Therefore, the following chemical processes are taking place in the reaction: Zn (s) + S (s) = ZnS (s).

a) A unit of time sometimes used in microscopic physics is the shake. One shake equals 10–8 s. Are there more shakes in a second
lawyer [7]

Answer:

a) Yes, there are 10^8 shakes in a second (1 s \frac{1 shake}{10^{-8}s}=10^8 shake) in a year there are 31,536,000 seconds... that is 3.1536x10^7 (1year\frac{365 day}{1 year} \frac{24 h}{1 day} \frac{60 min}{1 h}\frac{60s}{1min}=3.1536 *10^7)

b) Note that the defined universe day will have 60*60*24=86400 universe seconds if the seconds are defined as normal seconds.

Also one universe day (or 86400 universe seconds) is equivalent to 1010 years. Now using a rule of three we can know the seconds that humans have existed.

106 years * \frac{86,400 universe-seconds}{1,010 years}=9,067.728 s

That is about 2 and half hours.

Which expression allows you to determine the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

(C) length / height of the plane

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane can be determined using different variables. In this case, the geometry of the setup is relevant. The advantage is proportional  to the length of the plane, and inversely proportional to the height: it is the ratio (length) / (height) of the plane. For example, given a desired, fixed height, a long inclined plane gives you a bigger mechanical advantage than a short inclined plane. In this example, pushing an object up the long plane will require a smaller force, than it would on the short plane.

Strictly speaking, (D) would also "allow you to determine the mechanical advantage" because you could simply invert the ratio listed under (D). However, (C) is the best, direct, answer.
