What is the difference between mass and weight?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Olin [163]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

What investigations never involve hypotheses?
marshall27 [118]
The correct answer is a descriptive investigation.

An investigation which does not involve hypotheses called descriptive investigation.
Hypotheses are termed as scientific hypotheses and require that one can test it. In hypothesis, previous observation can not satisfactorily be explained with an available scientific theory.
Working hypotheses are being proposed for further research.

What is the oxidizing agent in the reaction 2MnO4-(aq) 10I-(aq) 16H (aq) ---&gt; 2Mn2 (aq) 5I2(aq) 8H2O(l)
faltersainse [42]

Correct Question: what is the oxidizing agent in the reaction.

2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)

Answer: MnO4-is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

In the reaction 2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)

Oxidizing agent oxidizes other molecules while the themselves get reduced.

oxidizing agents give away Oxygen to other compounds.

MnO4-is the oxidizing agent because

On the reactants side

Oxidation number of Mn in 2MnO4- is +7

Oxidation number of Cl- is -1

On the products side

Oxidation number of Mn is +2

While oxidation number of Cl is zero

Therefore the oxidizing agent is 2MnO4 because is oxidizes Chlorine from -1 to 0 while itself got reduced from oxidation state of +7 to +2

How many 20.0-g ice cubes are required to absorb 47.0 kJ from a glass of water upon melting?
Sati [7]

Hello!


The number of 20-g ice cubes required to absorb 47 kJ from a glass of water upon melting is 7 icecubes


Why?


We are going to clear from the equation of the released heat, the mass of ice (m). The specific latent heat of fusion of ice is 336 kJ/kg:


Q=m*L\\ \\ m=\frac{Q}{L}=\frac{47 kJ}{336 kJ/kg}=0,1399 kg=139,88 g\\   \\ 139,88g*\frac{1 icecube}{20g}=6,99=7icecubes


So, 7 ice cubes are required to absorb that amount of heat from the glass of water.


Have a nice day!
