Why does styrofoam fall slower than a rock

Chemistry
1 answer:
mina [271]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The foam board has a larger gravitational force but it also has a very large air resistance force. The net (total) force on the foam board will give it a smaller acceleration than paper.

Explanation:

The air molecules get knocked away and take some of the kinetic energy away from the object, which makes the object slow down

Group 2A metal oxides react with water to produce hydroxides. When 35.55 g of CaO are placed into 125 mL of water (d= 1.000 g/mL
Vika [28.1K]
Answer is: mass of calcium hydroxide is 46.98 grams.
Balanced chemical reaction: CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂.
m(CaO) = 35.55 g.
n(CaO) = m(CaO) ÷ M(CaO).
n(CaO) = 35.55 g ÷ 56 g/mol.
n(CaO) = 0.634 mol; limiting reactant.
m(H₂O) = 125 mL · 1.000 g/mL.
m(H₂O) = 125 g.
n(H₂O) = 125 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 6.94 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(CaO) : n(Ca(OH)₂) = 1 : 1.
n(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.634 mol.
m(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.634 mol · 74.1 g/mol = 46.98 g.

What is the pressure in a 5.00 L tank with 49.00 grams of oxygen gas at 350 K? ___atm
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The right answer is "8.81 atm".

Explanation:

Given:

V = 5.00 L

Mass = 4900 g

MW = 32 g/mol

T = 350 K

Now,

Number of moles will be:

n = \frac{Mass}{MW}

   =\frac{49.00}{32}

   =1.53125 \ mole

By using the ideal gas equation, we get

⇒ PV=nRT

or,

⇒    P=\frac{nRT}{V}

By substituting the values, we get

           =\frac{1.53125\times 0.0821\times 350}{5.00}

           =\frac{44.1}{5.00}

           =8.81 \ atm

What is the mass of 4.5 moles of nitrogen monoxide
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

135.027

Explanation:

Take the molar mass (from the periodic table) of Nitrogen (14.007) and Oxygen (15.999)

Add them together: 30.006 (this is 1 mole of NO)

30.006x4.5=135.027g

What is the pH of KOH solution that has H+= 1.87 x10^-13
kakasveta [241]
The pH of a solution is calculated as pH = -log[H+], where [H+] is the concentration of H+ ions. Based on the given concentration in the problem,
pH = -log(1.87 x 10^-13 M) = 12.73
Therefore, the pH of the solution is 12.73, and this implies a strongly basic solution.
