The Olympic sport of curling is one that is practically designed to show Physics in motion. Curling is a sport in which two teams alternate sliding smoothed stone pucks down an ice rink court with the intent to seat their stone closest to the center of the target (called the house). Each team has eight stones, meaning that the team that goes second has the (could be) massive advantage of sending the last stone.
The mass of the stone is important in that the more massive a stone (m) and the speed at which it travels (v) dictates it's momentum (momentum=mxv). As the curling stone slides down the ice (which is relatively frictionless unless acted upon by other players or objects) and having inertia, continues in it's straight course (again, unless acted upon by outside forces). If the stone hits another stone, it transfers some of its momentum in an elastic collision to that stone and the original stone is deflected in a calculable manner.
Collisions are used in the game to either clear opponent's stones from the house or out of their defensive positions, or to make adjustments to one's stones present in the house, all based on the momentum of the moving stone, and its transference.
Electrons in atoms can act as our charge carrier, because every electron carries a negative charge. If we can free an electron from an atom and force it to move, we can create electricity.
The mass (in grams) of iron, Fe that can be made from 21.5 g of Fe₂O₃ is 15.04 g
We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:
2Fe₂O₃ -> 4Fe + 3O₂
- Molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = 159.7 g/mol
- Mass of Fe₂O₃ from the balanced equation = 2 × 159.7 = 319.4 g
- Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol
- Mass of Fe from the balanced equation = 4 × 55.85 = 223.4 g
From the balanced equation above,
319.4 g of Fe₂O₃ decomposed to produce 223.4 g of Fe
<h3>How to determine the mass of iron, Fe produced</h3>
From the balanced equation above,
319.4 g of Fe₂O₃ decomposed to produce 223.4 g of Fe
Therefore,
21.5 g of Fe₂O₃ will decompose to produce = (21.5 × 223.4) / 319.4 = 15.04 g of Fe
Thus, 15.04 g of Fe were produced.

Because the intention is to boil the solution, the purpose of the solvent is to dissolve so it has a higher boiling point so ensure it stays in liquid form and doesn't evaporate into a gas
also, a pure solvent is made of 1 substance so it has 1 boiling point and the solution must evaporate/boil first
