Because of gravity duh

Answer:

An apple fall faster than the feather .

Explanation:

an apple fall faster than the feather because :-

mass of apple is much more greater than the feather, hence the gravitational force acting on apple is more than on feather. that's how mass causes apple to fall faster than apple.

and sometimes friction offered by air also causes feather to fall slow as compared to apple.

i hope it helped....

Answer: The value of $K_{eq}$ is 0.044

Explanation:

We are given:

Initial moles of methane = $4.10\times 10^{-2}mol=0.0410moles$

Initial moles of carbon tetrachloride = $6.51\times 10^{-2}mol=0.0651moles$

Volume of the container = 1.00 L

Concentration of a substance is calculated by:

$\text{Concentration}=\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume}}$

So, concentration of methane = $\frac{0.0410}{1.00}=0.0410M$

Concentration of carbon tetrachloride = $\frac{0.0651}{1.00}=0.0651M$

The given chemical equation follows:

$CH_4(g)+CCl_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2CH_2Cl_2(g)$

Initial: 0.0410 0.0651

At eqllm: 0.0410-x 0.0651-x 2x

We are given:

Equilibrium concentration of carbon tetrachloride = $6.02\times 10^{-2}M=0.0602M$

Evaluating the value of 'x', we get:

$\Rightarrow (0.0651-x)=0.0602\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.0049M$

Now, equilibrium concentration of methane = $0.0410-x=[0.0410-0.0049]=0.0361M$

Equilibrium concentration of $CH_2Cl_2=2x=[2\times 0.0049]=0.0098M$

The expression of $K_{eq}$ for the above reaction follows:

$K_{eq}=\frac{[CH_2Cl_2]^2}{[CH_4]\times [CCl_4]}$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$K_{eq}=\frac{(0.0098)^2}{0.0361\times 0.0603}\\\\K_{eq}=0.044$

Hence, the value of $K_{eq}$ is 0.044

Which reaction results in only a physical change?

Advocard [28]

D will because water just turns from liquid to a gas by adding heat. That is a physical change. The other equations are chemical changes.

During the combustion of 2.00 g of coal, the temperature of 500 g of water inside the calorimeter increased from 25.0°c to 43.7°

pantera1 [17]

Answer is: 39,083kJ.
m(coal) = 2,00g.
m(water) = 500g.
ΔT = 43,7°C - 25°C = 18,7°C, difference at temperatures.
c(water) = 4,18 J/g·°C, specific heat of water
Q = m(water)·ΔT·c(water), heat of reaction.
Q = 500g·18,7°C·4,18J/g·°C.
Q = 39083J = 39,083kJ.
