Answer:

Explanation:

According to legend, Galileo dropped weights off of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, showing that gravity causes objects of different masses to fall with the same acceleration. In recent years, researchers have taken to replicating this test in a way that the Italian scientist probably never envisioned — by dropping atoms. One of Galileo's contributions to the founding of modern science was his study of falling objects. He turned, then, to measuring the acceleration of objects rolling down smooth ramps. The ramp "diluted" the acceleration to a value small enough to allow accurate measurements of the longer time intervals.

The element is Sr (strontium)

strontium is in atomic number 38 in the periodic table. Strontium has 2.8.8.8.8.2

it loses two electrons to become stable hence it has a charge of 2+. when strontium loses two electron it form ion with 36 electrons

A solution of H2SO4(aq) with a molal concentration of 4.80 m has a density of 1.249 g/mL. What is the molar concentration of thi

Naddika [18.5K]

Imagine we have mass of solvent 1kg (1000g)
According to that: $molality =n(solute) / m(solvent) =\ \textgreater \ 4.8m = 4.8mole / 1kg$
= 4.8 mole * 98 g/mole = 470g
$m(H2SO4) = n(H2SO4)*Mr(H2SO4) =\ \textgreater \$ $=\ \textgreater \ Molarity = 4.8 mole / 1.2 L = 4 M$ m(H2SO4) which is =470g

m(solution) = m(H2SO4) + m(solvent) = 470 + 1000 = 1470 g
d(solution) = m(solution) / V(solution) =>
=> 1.249 g/mL = 1470 g / V(solution) =>
$Molarity = n(solute) / V(solution) =\ \textgreater \$

Llana [10]

Answer:

the electrolysis reaction is a non- spontaneous reaction

Explanation:

Since electrons flow from it, the anode in an electrolytic cell is positive, while the cathode is negative when electrons flow into it. The device functions like a galvanic cell in that direction. In an electrolytic cell, an external voltage is applied and that is what causes a non spontaneous reaction
