C. The gravity on the Moon is less than the gravity on Earth.

Explanation:

The weight of Neil Armstrong changed because the gravity on the Moon is less than the gravity on earth. We can infer that the gravity on moon is one-sixth the gravity earth.

  • Mass of Armstrong on earth and moon is the same. Mass is the quantity of matter contained in a substance. Since he has the same quantity of matter on earth and moon, his mass will be the same.

Weight is a function of mass and gravity on a body.

Since his weight reduced, we can infer that the gravity on the moon is lesser:

        Weight = mass x gravity.

Formula semidesarrollada de los hidrocarburos aromáticos de 1 a 10 átomos de carbono
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

El principal componente del gas natural es también el hidrocarburo más simple: el metano. Este compuesto está formado por un átomo de carbono y cuatro átomos de hidrógeno y se representa de dos formas:

El hidrocarburo que le sigue en simplicidad es aquel que está constituido por dos átomos de carbono. Su fórmula condensada es C2H6 y se le conoce como etano.

Si se continúan colocando átomos de carbono con enlaces sencillos entre ellos e hidrógenos en los enlaces libres, se crean largas cadenas de compuestos. Al etano le sigue el propano (C2H8) y a éste, el butano (C4H10). Todos estos compuestos forman parte de la familia de los alcanos, y sus nombres terminan con el sufijo –ano para indicar que pertenecen a la misma familia.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

31 / 2.8 = 11.0714286 L per mole of helium

3.5 / 4 = 0.875 moles

2.8 + 0.875 = 3.675 moles

11.0714286 x 3.675 = 40.6875 L

L and D forms of a molecule are what kind of isomers?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

enantiomers

Explanation:

L and D stand for levorotatory and dextrorotatory respectively. A levorotatory molecule will rotate the plane of plane polarised light left and a dextrorotatory molecule will rotate the plane of plane polarised light right.  L and D molecules are non superimposable mirror image of each other. Therefore they are also known as enantiomers.
