ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

E = 147000  J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of meteor, m = 50 kg

The altitude of the meteor, h = 300 m

We need to find the potential energy of the meteor. The formula for the potential energy is given by :

E=mgh

Put all the values,

E=50\times 9.8\times 300\\\\E=147000\ J

So, the required potential energy is equal to 147000  J.

If there are 3 moles of hydrogen, 6 moles of oxygen, and 9 moles of helium in a 10 L vessel at 27°C, the total pressure of the g
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) 44 atm

Explanation:

We apply Dalton's law, where for a gas mixture the total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of each gas that makes up that mixture. You can add the amount of moles and then calculate the pressure, using the ideal gas formula. We convert the temperature in Celsiud into Kelvin : 0°C= 273K---->

27°C=27 + 273= 300K

PV= (nH+ n0+ nHe)x RT

P=((nH+ n0+ nHe)x RT)/V=

P=((3 mol + 6 mol +9 mol)x 0,082 l atm/ Kmol x300K)/10 L

<em>P=44, 28 atm</em>

I need help understanding polyatomic ions
Vinvika [58]
A polyatomic ion, also known as a molecular ion, is a charged chemical species (ion) composed of two or more atoms covalently bonded or of a metal complex that can be considered to be acting as a single unit. The prefix poly- means "many," in Greek, but even ions of two atoms are commonly referred to as polyatomic

How do scientists distinguish between an element and a compound?
lozanna [386]
An element is just consisted of one type of atom and cannot be broken down by chemicals (Ex. Oxygen just has the oxygen molecule)

A compound is when there's a mixture of atoms and can be broken down by chemicals (Ex. NaCl is made up of sodium and chloride atoms)
