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.

How many molecules are in 68.0 g of H2S
Kryger [21]

The correct answer is 12.044 × 10²³ molecules.  

The molecular mass of H₂S is 34 gram per mole.  

Number of moles is determined by using the formula,  

Number of moles = mass/molecular mass

Given mass is 68 grams, so no of moles will be,  

68/34 = 2 moles

1 mole comprises 6.022 × 10²³ molecules, therefore, 2 moles will comprise = 6.022 × 10²³ × 2

= 12.044 × 10²³ molecules.

Describe the properties of alkali metals. based on their electronic arrangement, explain whether they exist alone in nature.
saul85 [17]

The alkali metals can't exist alone in nature because of incomplete outermost shell of alkali metals.

<h3>What are the  properties of alkali metals?</h3>

The alkali metals have the high thermal and electrical conductivity. It has high lustre, ductility, and malleability as compared to other materials. Each alkali metal atom has one electron in its outermost shell which make more reactive.

So we can conclude that the alkali metals can't exist alone in nature because of incomplete outermost shell of alkali metals.
