Answer:

Galileo performed a famous experiment where he used a ball rolling on a ramp (inclined plane) to study the motion of objects under the influence of gravity. The ramp allowed him to make more precise measurements because the ball moved more slowly along the ramp than if it were simply dropped. Galileo discovered through this experiment that the objects fell with the same acceleration, proving his prediction true, while at the same time disproving Aristotle's theory of gravity (which states that objects fall at speed proportional to their mass). Galileo's conclusion from this thought experiment was that no force is needed to keep an object moving with constant velocity. Newton took this as his first law of motion. One result of the experiment surprised Galileo, and one surprises us. Galileo found that the heavy ball hit the ground first, but only by a little bit. Except for a small difference caused by air resistance, both balls reached nearly the same speed. And that surprised him. According to history, Galileo’s experiment on falling bodies largely contributed to Isaac Newton’s Law of Gravity. In Galileo’s experiment, he is said to have dropped balls from the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The balls were made of the same material but had different masses. Galileo set out to prove that the time it took for these objects to reach the ground would be the same. Galileo proved that objects reached the ground at the same time,

puteri [66]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

For the net reaction: 2AB + 2C → A2 + 2BC, the following slow first steps have been proposed.

(1) AB → A + B

(2) 2C + AB → AC + BC

(3) 2AB → A₂ + 2B

(4) C + AB → BC + A

What rate law is predicted by each of these steps?

Answer : The rate law expression for the following reactions are:

(1) \text{Rate}=k[AB]

(2) \text{Rate}=k[C]^2[AB]

(3) \text{Rate}=k[AB]^2

(4) \text{Rate}=k[C][AB]

Explanation :

Rate law : It is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

The general reaction is:

A+B\rightarrow C+D

The general rate law expression for the reaction is:

\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b

where,

a = order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B

R = rate  law

k = rate constant

[A] and [B] = concentration of A and B reactant

Now we have to determine the rate law for the given reaction.

(1) The balanced equations will be:

AB\rightarrow A+B

In this reaction, AB is the reactant.

The rate law expression for the reaction is:

\text{Rate}=k[AB]

(2) The balanced equations will be:

2C+AB\rightarrow AC+BC

In this reaction, C and AB are the reactants.

The rate law expression for the reaction is:

\text{Rate}=k[C]^2[AB]

(3) The balanced equations will be:

2AB\rightarrow A_2+2B

In this reaction, AB is the reactant.

The rate law expression for the reaction is:

\text{Rate}=k[AB]^2

(4) The balanced equations will be:

C+AB\rightarrow BC+A

In this reaction, C and AB are the reactants.

The rate law expression for the reaction is:

\text{Rate}=k[C][AB]
