Answer:

C) It will accelerate.  

Explanation:

According to Newton’s second law of motion, when an object is acted on by an unbalanced force, it will accelerate.

An unbalanced force will change the speed or direction (or both) of an object. A change in speed and/or direction is acceleration.

A) is wrong. The object will stop moving only if there is a balanced force in the opposite direction.

B) is wrong. The object will decrease speed only if the unbalanced force has a component opposite to the direction of motion.

d) is wrong. The object will increase speed only if the unbalanced force has a component in the direction of motion.

True or false the si in sih4 does not follow the octet rule because hydrogen is in an unusual oxidation stat
ExtremeBDS [4]
The statement is true. The octet rule refers to the general rule of thumb wherein atoms of main-group elements tend to bond with other atoms in such a way that each atom possesses eight electrons (octet) in their valence shell. They tend to form the same electronic configuration as the noble gases. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. One of which is silane, SiH₄. A hydrogen atom only has 1 valence electron and needs another electron to complete its energy level. This is unlike other atoms, for example, carbon which has 4 valence electrons and needs to form 4 covalent bonds to fill its energy levels. Thus, 4 hydrogen atoms need only 4 more electrons. This is given by the silicon atom which has 4 valence electrons. Therefore, when a silicon atom is bonded to 4 hydrogen atoms, the resulting molecule, SiH₄, is a stable one.

A buffer solution is composed of 7.50 mol of acid and 4.75 mol of the conjugate base. If the pKa of the acid is 4.90 , what is t
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is: pH= 4.70

Explanation:

We use the <em>Henderson-Hasselbach equation</em> in order to calculate the pH of a buffer solution:

pH= pKa + log   \frac{ [conjugate base]}{[acid]}

Given:

pKa= 4.90

[conjugate base]= 4.75 mol

[acid]= 7.50 mol

We calculate pH as follows:

pH = 4.90 + log (4.75 mol/7.50 mol) = 4.90 + (-0.20) = 4.70

You measure salt water in a tank to have a density of 1.02 g/mL. A balloon weighs 2.0 g and you weights have a mass of 30.0 g ea
Elden [556K]

Weight of the balloon = 2.0 g

Six weights each of mass 30.0 g is added to the balloon.

Total mass of the balloon = 2.0 g + 6*30.0 g = 182 g

Density of salt water = 1.02 g/mL

Calculating the volume from mass and density:

182g*\frac{mL}{1.02g} =178mL

Converting the volume from mL to cubic cm:

178 mL * \frac{1cm^{3} }{1mL} =178cm^{3}

Assuming the balloon to be a sphere,

Volume of the sphere = \frac{4}{3}πr^{3}

178 cm^{3} = \frac{4}{3}(\frac{22}{7})r^{3}

r = 3.49 cm

Radius of the balloon = 3.49 cm

Diameter of the balloon = 2 r = 2*3.49 cm = 6.98cm
