The number of grams of carbon that combine with 16 g of oxygen in the formation of CO₂ is 6g.
When two elements combine to make more than one compound, the masses of one element combined with a fixed amount of another element are in the ratio of whole numbers, according to the law of multiple proportions.
When combined with oxygen, carbon can produce two different compounds. They are referred to as carbon dioxide (CO₂) and carbon monoxide (CO).
Carbon monoxide is formed by combining 12 g of carbon with 16 g of oxygen whereas Carbon dioxide is formed when 12 g of carbon reacts with 32 g of oxygen. The amount of carbon is fixed at 12 g in each case. The mass ratio of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide is 16: 32, or 1: 2.
But in the given case, 16g of oxygen is reacting instead of 32g. Therefore, the number of grams of carbon reacting will be:

Thus, 6g of carbon will react with 16g of oxygen to form carbon dioxide.

The apparent weight of a 1.1 g drop of water is 4.24084 N.
<h3>
What is Apparent Weight?</h3>
- According to physics, an object's perceived weight is a characteristic that describes how heavy it is. When the force of gravity acting on an object is not counterbalanced by a force of equal but opposite normality, the apparent weight of the object will differ from the actual weight of the thing.
- By definition, an object's weight is equal to the strength of the gravitational force pulling on it. It follows that even a "weightless" astronaut in low Earth orbit, with an apparent weight of zero, has almost the same weight that he would have if he were standing on the ground; this is because the gravitational pull of low Earth orbit and the ground are nearly equal.
Solution:
N = Speed of rotation = 1250 rpm
D = Diameter = 45 cm
r = Radius = 22.5 cm
M = Mass of drop = 1.1 g
Angular speed of the water =

Question:
The spin cycle of a clothes washer extracts the water in clothing by greatly increasing the water's apparent weight so that it is efficiently squeezed through the clothes and out the holes in the drum. In a top loader's spin cycle, the 45-cm-diameter drum spins at 1250 rpm around a vertical axis. What is the apparent weight of a 1.1 g drop of water?
Answer:
There are <u>5</u> significant figures.
Explanation:
You must start conting your sig figs until you continue to hit zeros at the end. Those zeroes at the end are disregarded. So 0.0609 is where you get your <em>sig figs</em> from.
