Answer:

C. Count the atoms in each substance in the reactants and products.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as a chemical process which typically involves the transformation or rearrangement of the atomic, ionic or molecular structure of an element through the breakdown and formation of chemical bonds to produce a new compound or substance.

In order for a chemical equation to be balanced, the condition which must be met is that the number of atoms in the reactants equals the number of atoms in the products.

This ultimately implies that, the mass and charge of the chemical equation are both balanced properly.

In Chemistry, all chemical equation must follow or be in accordance with the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed by either a physical transformation or a chemical reaction but transformed from one form to another in an isolated (closed) system.

One of the step used for balancing chemical equations is to count the atoms in each substance in the reactants and products.

For example;

NH3 + O2 -----> NO + H2O

The number of atoms in each chemical element are;

For the reactant side:

Nitrogen, N = 1

Hydrogen, H = 3

Oxygen, O = 2

For the product side;

Nitrogen, N = 1

Hydrogen, H = 2

Oxygen, O = 2

When we balance the chemical equation, we would have;

NH3 + 3O2 -----> 4NO + 2H2O

A pitcher exerts a force on a baseball that is 30 times the balls weight. How fast is the pitcher accelerating the ball?
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

 Pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

Explanation:

  Force applied on baseball = 30 times weight of the ball.

   Weight of ball = mg, where m is the mass of ball and g is acceleration due to gravity value.

  We have force applied is also equal to product of mass and acceleration.

                            F = ma = 30 x mg

                                 a = 30g

   So, pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

A 4 kg block slides down a rough inclined plane inclined at 30° 179009.GIF with the horizontal. Determine the coefficient of kin
mrs_skeptik [129]
F=ma
F= 4x1.2
F= 4.8 N

F= 4gsin30 - Friction
Friction= 19.6 - 4.8 N
Friction= 14.8 N

Friction= u x 4gcos30
14.8 / 4gcos30 = u
u= 0.43596...
u= 0.44

coefficient is 0.44

Which form of emission is commonly not written in nuclear equations because they do not affect charges, atomic numbers, or mass
salantis [7]

Answer:

Gamma radiation .

Explanation:

Three types of emission result at the time of nuclear emission .

alpha emission

Beta emission

Gamma radiation emission

Gamma radiation results in the emission of gamma ray . This is a very high frequency radiation . It is not a particle having charge and mass like alpha and beta emission . So it has no effect on the mass and charge of the product that is formed after gamma radiation . The only effect it has on the product is that it reduces the kinetic energy of the emitting particles or it reduces the internal energy of the product . It causes negligible change in the mass of the product and no change in the charge of the product.

That is why , generally this product is not written in the nuclear reaction .

The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is represented by e. What is the strength of the el
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

At twice the distance, the strength of the field is e/4

Explanation:

F = the strength of an electric field.

F is inversely proportional to the squared distance from the point charge.

mathematically,

F = k(e/d²)

hence, if d is doubled,keeping other forms constant

F = e/4,
