Are the forces on the parachutes balanced?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kirza4 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

When the parachute opens, air resistance becomes much greater than gravity. The forces are no longer balanced and this changes her speed.

Explanation:

Eventually the upward force of the air equals the downward force of gravity. When forces are balanced the speed remains constant.

0.50 mol A, 0.60 mol B, and 0.90 mol C are reacted according to the following reaction
algol [13]

Reactant C is the limiting reactant in this scenario.

Explanation:

The reactant in the balanced chemical reaction which gives the smaller amount or moles of product is the limiting reagent.

Balanced chemical reaction is:

A + 2B + 3C → 2D + E

number of moles

A = 0.50 mole

B = 0.60 moles

C = 0.90 moles

Taking A as the reactant

1 mole of A reacted to form 2 moles of D

0.50 moles of A will produce \frac{2}{1} = \frac{x}{0.50}

thus 0.50 moles of A will produce 1 mole of D

Taking B as the reactant

2 moles of B reacted to form 2 moles of D

0.60 moles of B reacted to form x moles of D

\frac{2}{2} = \frac{x}{0.6}

x = 2 moles of D is produced.

Taking C as the reactant:

3 moles of C reacted to form 2 moles of D

O.9 moles of C reacted to form x moles of D

\frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{0.9}

= 0.60 moles of D is formed.

Thus C is the limiting reagent in the given reaction as it produces smallest mass of product.

A solution that is 0.20 m in hcho2 and 0.15 m in nacho2 find ph
Mashutka [201]
We are given
0.2 M HCHO2 which is formic acid, a weak acid
and
0.15 M NaCHO2 which is a salt which can be formed by reacting HCHO2 and NaOH

The mixture of the two results to a basic buffer solution
To get the pH of a base buffer, we use the formula
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - (pKa - log [salt]/[base])

We need the pKa of HCO2
From, literature, pKa = 1.77 x 10^-4
Substituting into the equation
pH = 14 - (1.77 x 10^-4 - log 0.15/0.2)
pH = 13.87

So, the pH of the buffer solution is 13.87
A pH of greater than 7 indicates that the solution is basic and a pH close to 14 indicates high alkalinity. This is due to the buffering effect of the salt on the base.
