Answer:

6. C3H2O

Explanation:

C= 12.0107; H= 1.00797; O=15.9994

We calculate:

C= 65.85/12.01=5.48

H= 4.91/1.00=4.91

O=29.24/16.00= 1.82

Later, we divide among the smaller quantity

C=5.48/1.82= 3.01

H=4.91/1.82= 2.70

O=1.82/1.82=1

When an object accelerates, what about the motion changes
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

An object which experiences either a change in the magnitude or the direction of the velocity vector can be said to be accelerating. This explains why an object moving in a circle at constant speed can be said to accelerate - the direction of the velocity changes.

a sample of argon gas is cooled and its volume went from 380. mL to 250. mL. If its final temperature was -55.0C, what was its o
inn [45]

Answer:

The initial temperature was 58.4°C

Explanation:

Given the following data:

initial volume = V₁ = 380 mL = 0.38 L

final volume = V₂ = 250 mL = 0.25 L

final temperature = T₂ = -55°C = 218 K

According to Charles's law, the volume of a gas is <em>directly proportional to the temperature</em> (in Kelvin). The mathematical expression is:

V₁/T₁= V₂/T₂

So, we calculate the initial temperature (V₁) as follows:

T₁ = T₂/V₂ x V₁ = 218 K/(0.25 L) x 0.38 L = 331.36 K ≅ 331.4 K

Finally, we convert the initial temperature from K to °C:

T₁= 331.4 K - 273 = 58.4°C
