"Mass" and "weight" should never be used interchangeably with each other. Mass refers to the total amount of matter that can be measured in an object, while weight refers to the measure of the force of gravity that is acting on the object's mass.

The mass of an object is constant (meaning, it doesn't change even if the object will be placed on another location) while the weight of an object relies on the force of gravity. So, this means that your mass on Earth and on the moon are identical, however, your weight on Earth and on the Moon are different. You will weigh lesser on the Moon because it has a lesser surface gravity than that of Earth.

So, this explains the answer.

Which substance/s have covalent bond? Explain your answer.

Viefleur [7K]

Covalent bonding occurs when electrons are shared between atoms. Double and triple covalent bonds occur when four or six electrons are shared between two atoms, and they are indicated in Lewis structures by drawing two or three lines connecting one atom to another.

. How many grams of NaOH would you need to make 450 mL of a 0.250 M NaOH solution

Stella [2.4K]

You have molarity and you have volume. Use the formula :
Molarity(M)= Moles(N)/Liter(L) to get the solution.
450 ml= .450 L
.250 = N/.450
N=.1125 moles of NaOH.
And since you know the moles, use the molar mass to figure out the grams.
 (40g/mol NaOH) x (.1125 mol) =
4.5g of NaOH.

Hope it helps. Good luck on chemistry.
