Why does a feather fall slower than a rubber ball? How could you make them hit

Chemistry

Answer:

Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and a rubber ball dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly, while the ball falls more fast.

A feather falls slower than a rubber ball due to weight of the objects, and air resistance.

On a cool morning, uyen’s breath can form a cloud when she breathes out. which changes of state are most responsible for uyen se
Ganezh [65]
<span>You may already know that when you breathe in, your body takes in oxygen from the air. When you breathe out, your lungs expel carbon dioxide back into the air. But the breath you breathe out contains more than just carbon dioxide.</span>

When you exhale (breathe out), your breath also containsmoisture. Because your mouth and lungs are moist, each breath you exhale contains a little bit of water in the form of water vapor(the gas form of water).

For water to stay a gas in the form of water vapor, it needs enough energy to keep its molecules moving. Inside your lungs where it's nice and warm, this isn't a problem.

Why can't methanol, CH3OH, be used as a solvent for sodium amide, NaNH2? Sodium amide is nonpolar and methanol is polar. Sodium
Elodia [21]

Answer: sodium amide undergoes an acid -base reaction

Explanation:

sodium amide is a ionic compound and basically exists as sodium cation and amide anion. Amide anion is highly basic in nature and hence as soon as  there is amide anion generated in the solution , Due to its very pronounced acidity it very quickly abstracts the slightly acidic proton available on methanol.

This leads to formation of ammonia and sodium methoxide.

Hence sodium amide reacts with methanol and abstracts its only acidic proton and form ammonia and sodium Methoxide.

Hence the 3rd statement is a corrects statement.

So we cannot use methanol for sodium amide because sodium amide itself would react with methanol and the inherent molecular natur of sodium amide would then change.

The 1st and 2nd statements both are incorrect because both the compounds methanol as well as sodium amide have dipole moments and hence are polar molecules.

The 4th statement is also incorrect as both the molecules have dipole moment and hence there would be ion-dipole forces operating between them.

The following reaction occurs:

NaNH₂+CH₃OH→NH₃+CH₃ONa

It is desired to produce 2.25 grams of dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) by the following reaction. If the percent yield of dichlorometha
Allushta [10]

Answer:- 3.12 g carbon tetrachloride are needed.

Solution:- The balanced equation is:

CH_4+CCl_4\rightarrow 2CH_2Cl_2

From given actual yield and percent yield we will calculate the theoretical yield that would be further used to calculate the grams of carbon tetrachloride.

percent yield formula is:

percent yield = (\frac{actual}{theoretical})100

65.5=(\frac{2.25}{theoretical})100

theoretical=(\frac{2.25(100)}{65.5})

theoretical = 3.44 g

From balanced equation, there is 2:1 mol ratio between dichloethane and carbon tetrachloride.

Molar mass of dichloroethane is 84.93 gram per mol and molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.82 gram per mol.

3.44gCH_2Cl_2(\frac{1molCH_2Cl_2}{84.93gCH_2Cl_2})(\frac{1molCCl_4}{2molCH_2Cl_2})(\frac{153.82gCCl_4}{1molCCl_4})

= 3.12gCCl_4

So, 3.12 grams of carbon tetrachloride are needed to be reacted.
