Nuclear reaction involves two reacting particles a heavy target nucleus and a light bombarding particle and produces two new particles a heavier product nucleus and a lighter ejected particle.
<u>Given:</u>
Mass of pure iron (Fe) = 3.4 g
<u>To determine:</u>
Mass of HBr needed to dissolve the above iron
<u>Explanation:</u>
Reaction between HBr and Fe is
Fe + 2HBr → FeBr₂ + H₂
Based on the reaction stoichiometry-
1 mole of Fe reacts with 2 moles of HBr
# moles of Fe = mass of Fe/atomic mass of Fe = 3.4/56 g.mol⁻¹ = 0.0607 moles
Therefore # moles of HBr = 2*0.0607 = 0.1214 moles
Molar mass of HBr = 81 g/mole
Mass of HBr = 0.1214 moles * 81 g/mole = 9.83 g
Ans: Mass of HBR required is 9.83 g
Answer:
713.51 N/m
Explanation:
Hook's Law: This law states that provided the elastic limit is not exceeded, the extension in an elastic material is directly proportional to the applied force.
From hook's law,
F = ke ...........................Equation 1
Where F = Force exerted on the bowstring, e = Extension/compression of the bowstring, k = Spring constant of the bow.
Make k the subject of the equation,
k = F/e ............................ Equation 2
Given: F = 264 N, e = 0.37 m.
Substitute into equation 2
k = 264/0.37
k = 713.51 N/m
Hence the spring constant of the bow = 713.51 N/m
