The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Eli states that sodium phosphate is a mixture because it is composed of both sodium ions and phosphate ions. Which is the best analysis of Eli’s statement? It is correct because each ion is a pure substance, so sodium phosphate is made up of two pure substances. It is correct because the composition of sodium phosphate changes depending on the sample. It is incorrect because sodium phosphate is a compound that has a single composition. It is incorrect because the two types of ions in sodium phosphate cannot be seen.

Answer:

It is incorrect because sodium phosphate is a compound that has a single composition

Explanation:

A compound is a neutral substance made up of two or more atoms which are chemically combined together.

Ionic substances are made up of ions. These ions are not separate entities, they are part of the compound.

Hence, Eli's statement is incorrect because sodium phosphate is a compound that has a single composition.

The smallest unit of charge is − 1.6 × 10 − 19 C, which is the charge in coulombs of a single electron. Robert Millikan was able

vovangra [49]

Answer:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$

Explanation:

<u>Charge of an Electron</u>

Since Robert Millikan determined the charge of a single electron is

$q_e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Every possible charged particle must have a charge that is an exact multiple of that elemental charge. For example, if a particle has 5 electrons in excess, thus its charge is $5\times -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C=-8 \cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Let's test the possible charges listed in the question:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . We have just found it's a possible charge of a particle

$-3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . Since 3.2 is an exact multiple of 1.6, this is also a possible charge of the oil droplets

$-1.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ this is not a possible charge for an oil droplet since it's smaller than the charge of the electron, the smallest unit of charge

$-5.6 \times 10 ^{-19 },\ -9.4 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ cannot be a possible charge for an oil droplet because they are not exact multiples of 1.6

Finally, the charge $-4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$ is four times the charge of the electron, so it is a possible value for the charge of an oil droplet

Summarizing, the following are the possible values for the charge of an oil droplet:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$

The maximum height a typical person can jump is about 60cm (0.6m). By how much does the gravitational potential energy increase

sasho [114]

The gravitational potential energy will increase by 423.36 J

<h3>How to determine the potential energy at ground level</h3>

Mass (m) = 72 kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Height (h) = 0 m
Potential energy at ground level (PE₁) =?

PE = mgh

PE₁ = 72 × 9.8 × 0

PE₁ = 0 J

<h3>How to determine the potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m)</h3>

Mass (m) = 72 kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Height (h) = 0.6 m
Potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m) (PE₂) =?

PE = mgh

PE₂ = 72 × 9.8 × 0.6

PE₂= 423.36 J

<h3>How to determine the change in potential energy </h3>

Potential energy at ground level (PE₁) = 0 J
Potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m) (PE₂) = 423.36 J
Change in potential energy =?

Change in potential energy = PE₂ - PE₁

Change in potential energy = 423.36 - 0

Change in potential energy = 423.36 J

Find the relation, time velocity graph : acceleration of an object, time position graph : ?

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

In a time-position graph (s-t graph):

slope = velocity

In a time-velocity graph (v-t graph):

slope = acceleration

area under graph = change in displacement (distance travelled)

In a time-acceleration graph (a-t graph):

area under graph = change in velocity

If the average gauge pressure in the vein is 12200 Pa, what must be the minimum height of the bag in order to infuse glucose int

Amanda [17]

Answer:

h = 1.22 m

Explanation:

Given:

Pressure in the vein = 12200 Pa

Specific gravity of the liquid = 1.02

now,

the pressure due to a fluid is given as:

P = pgh

where,

P is the pressure,

ρ is the density of fluid = specific gravity x density of water = 1.02 x 1000 kg/m³

ρ = 1020 kg/m³

g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 9.81m/s²

h is the height

thus,

h = P/pg = $\frac{12200}{1020\times 9.8}=1.22 m$
