<span>a. Calculate the mass is slugs and the weight in poundals of a 175 lbm man (i) on earth and (ii) on the moon, where the acceleration of gravity is one-sixth of its value on earth.

The weight is the attraction force exerted by the earth (or moon) on the body

This force is calculated by the second Law of Newton: F = m*a = m*g = weight.

i) In the Earth:

m = 175 lbm
g = 32.17 ft/s^2

=> Weight = 175 lbm * 32.17 ft/s^2 = 5,629.75 poundal

ii) g = 1/6 * 32.17 ft/s^2 = 5.36 ft/s^2

=> Weight = 175 lbm * 5.36 ft/s^2 = 938 poundal



b. A force of 355 poundals is exerted on a 25.0-slug object. At what rate (m/s2) does the object accelerate?

Second Law of Newton: F = m*a => a = F/m

a = 355 poundal / 25.0 slug = 14.2 ft/s^2

Conversion to m/s^2:

14.2 ft/s^2 * [0.3048 m/ft] =  4.33 m/s^2

What is the h+ concentration for an aqueous solution with poh = 3.35 at 25 ∘c? express your answer to two significant figures an
RSB [31]
POH value was calculated by the negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration.
To know the hydrogen ion concentration, we need to know the pH value, that can be found out if pOH is known 
pH + pOH = 14
pH = 14 - pOH 
pH = 10.65
once the pH is known we have to find the antilog. 
[H⁺] = antilog (-pH)
antilog can be found by 
[H⁺] = 10^(-10.65)
[H⁺] = 2.2 x 10⁻¹¹ M

Heat Transfer Lab
scoray [572]

Heat Transfer Lab

The following represents a lab set up for heat transfer. The cup on the left started with boiling water at 100 degrees C and the cup on the right has water at 20 degrees C. There is an aluminum bar between the two cups allowing heat to transfer from one cup into the other. The set up will be left alone for 20 minutes and temperatures of each cup of water will be recorded every minute for 20 minutes.

Why does one Oxygen atom bond with two Hydrogen atoms to form water? Why don't they bond in a different ratio?
Vladimir79 [104]

This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.

What does an arrow in a chemical equation show?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

A chemical equation consists of the chemical formulas of the reactants (on the left) and the products (on the right). The two are separated by an arrow symbol (“→” usually read aloud as “yields”). ... The equation also identifies that all the compounds are in the gaseous state.

If the solubility of sugar at 25ºC is 211 g/100 g H2O, what mass of sugar can be dissolved in 300 g of H2O?
ladessa [460]

Answer:

633 grams of sugar can be dissolved in 300 g of H₂O

Explanation:

Solubility is the measure of the ability of a certain substance to dissolve in another and form a homogeneous system.  Solubility is then the maximum amount of a solute that a solvent can receive and is expressed by concentration units.

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. That is, what is intended with it is to find the fourth term of a proportion knowing the other three. Remember that proportionality is a constant relationship or ratio between different magnitudes.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, that is, when one magnitude increases, so does the other (or when one magnitude decreases, so does the other) , the direct rule of three must be applied. To solve a direct rule of three, the following formula must be followed:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then:

x=\frac{c*b}{a}

You can apply the rule of three as follows: if by definition of solubility in 100 grams of H₂O there are 211 grams of sugar, in 300 g of H₂O how much sugar is there?

sugar=\frac{300 grams of H_{2}O *211 grams of sugar}{100 grams of H_{2}O}

sugar= 633 grams

<u><em>633 grams of sugar can be dissolved in 300 g of H₂O</em></u>
