When a planet orbits the sun, it is moving which means it has what type of energy?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

How many molecules of ethane ( C2H6) are present in 0.197g of C2H6?
Brut [27]

Answer:

3.945 x 10²¹ molecules

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles using the relation:
  • n = mass/molar mass = (0.197 g)/(30.07 g/mol) = 6.55 x 10⁻³ mol.
  • It is known that every 1.0 mol of a molecule contains Avogadro's number of molecules (NA = 6.022 x 10²³).
  • <em>∴ 0.197 g of C₂H₆ will contain</em> = (6.55 x 10⁻³ mol)(6.022 x 10²³) = <em>3.945 x 10²¹ molecules.</em>

In a typical mass spectrum, a smaller signal is observed at a mass 1 amu higher than the molecular ion peak. Why
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Answer is explained below in the explanation section

Explanation:

Smaller signal is observed at a mass 1 amu because small percentage of the compound will have carbon isotope of 13C instead of 12C.

As we know, mass spectrometry is done as a small compound is first vaporized and then bombarded to ionize it. And then, those ions are accelerated forward and then at some point ions are separated and deflected by the application of magnetic field.

And finally hits the detector to give us a spectrum to read. So, in this whole procedure, there can be a small percentage of carbon isotope of 13C instead of 12C in that compound and showed in the spectrum as a smaller signal at a mass 1 amu.
