When a fast moving particle runs into a slower moving particle what happens ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It depends upon the mass of the particles also. Assuming equal mass, then the slower moving particle gains some energy, and the faster-moving particle loses energy. However, if the slower moving particle had greater mass, it could transfer energy to the faster-moving particle.

What is the density of a solid that has a mass of 100g and a volume of 25mL.?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

D = 4 g/mL

General Formulas and Concepts:

Density = Mass over Volume

  • D = m/V

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

m = 100 g

V = 25 mL

D = unknown

<u>Step 2: Find D</u>

  1. Substitute:               D = 100 g/25 mL
  2. Evaluate:                  D = 4 g/mL

In addition to interhalogen compounds, many interhalogen ions exist. Would you expect interhalogen ions with a 1+ or a 1- charge
VMariaS [17]

There is one electron in the valence shell of every halogen. Two halogen atoms join together to form a covalent connection (sharing one electron each). Thus, inter-halogen compounds with 1+ or a 1- charge contain an even number of atoms.

An interhalogen compound is a molecule with no atoms from any other group of elements and two or more different halogen atoms (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, or astatine). The majority of interhalogen chemicals are binary (composed of only two distinct elements).

How does the entropy of a system change when equal volumes of ethanol and water are mixed to form a solution? these are the answ
shutvik [7]
When equal volumes of ethanol and water are mixed to form a solution, the entropy of the resulting solution increases. This is because ethanol and water are both polar substances, making them miscible. The solubility of both substances is high because they have similar attractions due to the presence of hydrogen bonding. This means that molecules of water and ethanol freely move with each other, therefore increasing the dispersal, randomness, and disorder (entropy) of the system.

An element gain two electrons and has 16 protons and 17 neutrons. What is the atomic mass of this element and what is the charge
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

atomic mass= 33

Charge= -2

Explanation:

In an atom, are contained three SUBATOMIC particles viz: proton and neutron found in the nucleus, electrons surrounding the nucleus. Protons contain the positive charge of an atom while electrons contain the negative charge of an atom. The number of protons and electrons in an atom determines the charge of an ion (charged atom). Also, the atomic mass or mass number of that atom is got by adding the number of protons + number of neutrons.

In this case where the number of protons and number of neutrons are 16 and 17 respectively, the mass no. or atomic mass is 17 + 16 = 33.

Also, since two electrons are gained by this atom, it means the electron numbe, which is normally equal to the proton number in a neutral atom, will be increased by 2. Hence, the electron number will be 18 in this case.

The charge of the atom= no. of protons - no. of electrons = 16 - 18 = -2.
