Two identical dump trucks are at a work site. One is returning with a full load, and the other is empty. Both are traveling at 3

5 mph. Which has more kinetic energy?

Answer:

The one with the full load.

Explanation: We can prove this by doing V^2 X M = KE

where V= velocity M= mass and KE= kinetic energy.

is both are traveling at the same speed (let's say 2kmph) and one has a mass of 50 kg with the other having a mass of 100kg.

(plug in the values) .   2^2 X 50 = KE and 2^2 X 100= KE

(simplify) 200=KE and 400=KE

This proves that a dump truck with a larger load (if traveling at the same speed) will always contain more energy than a dump truck with a smaller load.

A nonvolatile solute is dissolved in benzene so that it has a mole fraction of 0.139. What is the vapor pressure of the solution
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The vapor pressure of the solution is 3.69 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mole fraction of benzene in the solution = 0.139

P° of benzene is 26.5 torr

Step 2: Calculate the vapor pressure of the solution

Psolution = Xbenzene * P°benzene

⇒with Psolution = the vapor pressure of the solution

⇒with Xbenzene = the mole fraction of benzene = 0.139

⇒with P°benzene = the vapor pressure of pure benzene = 26.5 torr

Psolution = 0.139 * 26.5 torr

Psolution = 3.69 torr

The vapor pressure of the solution is 3.69 torr

Zinc has a specific heat capacity of 0.390 J/goC. What is its molar heat capacity? Enter your answer numerically to three signif
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The answer to your questions is  Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C  

Explanation:

Data

Heat capacity = 0.390 J/g°C

Molar heat capacity = ?

Process

1.- Look for the atomic number of Zinc

     Z = 65.4 g/mol

2.- Convert heat capacity to molar heat capacity

       (0.390 J/g°C)(65.4 g/mol)

- Simplify and result

   Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C

In a sample of oxygen gas at room temperature, the average kinetic energy of all the balls stays constant. Which postulate of ki
Levart [38]

Answer:

Collisions between gas particles are elastic; there is no net gain or loss of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When a gas is paced in a container, the molecules of the gas have little or no intermolecular interaction between them. There is a lot of space between the molecules of the gas.

The gas molecules move at very high speed and collide with each other and with the walls of container.

The collision of these particles with each other is perfectly elastic hence the kinetic energy of the colliding gas particles do not change.

Calculate the molarity of a sugar solution if 4 liters of the solution contains 12 moles of sugar.
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

3M

Explanation:

Molarity is one of the measures of the molar concentration of a solution, which can be calculated by using the formula below:

Molarity = number of moles ÷ volume

From the information given in this question, 4 liters of a solution contains 12 moles of sugar. This means that n = 12mol and V = 4L

Molarity = n/V

Molarity = 12/4

Molarity = 3

Hence, the molarity of the sugar solution is 3mol/L or 3M
