What is the speed of light?can a object move in speed of light?​
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The speed of light is the speed at which light travels. No, an object cannot move at the speed of light.  

Explanation:

The speed of light is 186,000 miles per second. An object with mass cannot move at the speed of light since it would take an infinite amount of energy to achieve that velocity, since only massless particles can travel at the speed of light. Also, you would have to factor in air friction, meaning even if an object were to reach such high speeds, it would instantly disintegrate.

How many formula units are there in 450 g of Na2S04?
Mashutka [201]

Formula units in 450 g of Na_{2} So_{4} is 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units.

<u>Explanation:</u>

First we have to find the number of moles in the given mass by dividing the mass by its molar mass as,

$\frac{450 g}{142.04 g/mol} =  3.2 moles

Now, we have to multiply the number of moles of Na₂SO₄ by the Avogadro's number, 6.022 × 10²³ formula units/mol, so we will get the number of formula units present in the given mass of the compound.

3.2 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ = 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units.

So, 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units is present in 450g of Na₂SO₄.

If an atom gains an electron, what overall charge will it have?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The atom will have a negative charge.

Explanation:

Electrons are subatomic particles with a negative charge, protons are subatomic particles with a negative charge, and neutrons have no charge. When a neutral atom's balance is disrupted by an extra electron, the atom  becomes negatively charged.

1. How many moles of oxygen gas are needed to form 21.8 liters of water vapor?
BaLLatris [955]

0.781 moles

Explanation:

We begin by balancing the chemical equation;

O₂ (g) + 2H₂ (g) → 2H₂O (g)

21.8 Liters = 21.8 Kgs

To find how many moles are in 28.1 Kg H₂O;

Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol

28.1/18

= 1.56 moles

The mole ratio between water vapor and oxygen is;

1 : 2

x : 1.56

2x = 1.56

x = 1.56 / 2

x =  0.781

0.781 moles
