What happens to the potential energy of a book that is dropped from a desk to the floor?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Debora [2.8K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

D.   It is converted into kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When a book is dropped from a desk to the floor, the potential energy of the book is converted to kinetic energy as it falls.

  • Potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of the body.
  • At a particular height, the potential energy is maximum.
  • A body with mass and moving with velocity will have kinetic energy
  • As the book drops through the height, to conserve energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Two different compounds are obtained by combining nitrogen with oxygen. the first compound results from combining 46.7 g of n wi
kondaur [170]
<span>First:

46.7 g of N with 53.3 g of O,

=> mass ratio O to N = 53.3 / 46.7 = 1.1413

Second

17.9 g of N and 82.0 g of O.

mass ratio of O to N = 82.0 / 17.9 = 4.5810

Third

Ratio of the mass ratio of O to N in the second compound to the mass ratio of O to N in the first compound =

= 4.5810 / 1.1413 = 4.013 ≈ 4

a water sample is found to have a cl- content of 100ppm as nacl what is the concentration of chloride in moles per liter
ladessa [460]

Answer:

The concentration of chloride ion is 2.82\times10^{-3}\;mol/L

Explanation:

We know that 1 ppm is equal to 1 mg/L.

So, the Cl^- content 100 ppm suggests the presence of 100 mg of Cl^- in 1 L of solution.

The molar mass of Cl^- is equal to the molar mass of Cl atom as the mass of the excess electron in Cl^- is negligible as compared to the mass of Cl atom.

So, the molar mass of Cl^- is 35.453 g/mol.

Number of moles = (Mass)/(Molar mass)

Hence, the number of moles (N) of Cl^- present in 100 mg (0.100 g) of Cl^- is calculated as shown below:

N=\frac{0.100\;g}{35.453\;g/mol}=2.82\times 10^{-3}\;mol

So, there is 2.82\times10^{-3}\;mol of Cl^- present in 1 L of solution.

If 63.8 grams of aluminum metal (Al) react with 72.3 grams of sulfur (S) in a synthesis reaction, how many grams of the excess r
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

23.2 g of Al will be left over when the reaction is complete

Explanation:

2Al  +  3S  → Al₂S₃

1 mol of Al = 26.98 g

1 mol of S = 32.06 g

Mole = Mass / Molar mass

63.8 g/ 26.98 g/m = 2.36 mole of Al

72.3 g / 32.06 g/m = 2.25 mole of S

2 mole of Aluminun react with 3 mole of sulfur

2.36 mole of Al react with (2.36 .3)/2 = 3.54 m of S

As I have 2.25 mole of S, and I need 3.54 S, is my limiting reagent so the limiting in excess is the Al.

3 mole of S react with 2 mole of Al

2.25 mole of S react with (2.25 m . 2)/3 = 1.50 mole

I need 1.50 mole of Al and I have 2.36, that's why the Al is in excess.

2.36 mole of Al - 1.50 mole of Al = 0.86 mole

This is the quantity of Al without reaction.

Molar mass . mole = Mass →  26.98 g/m . 0.86 m = 23.2 g
