Think of it like theory and physics.

A theory is an idea that needs to be tested.

Scientific law is something that cant be proven wrong.

Scientific laws and theories have different jobs to do. A scientific law predicts the results of certain initial conditions. ... In contrast, a theory tries to provide the most logical explanation about why things happen as they do.

Calculate the amount of energy required to melt 500 g of ice at 0oc. (δhfus=5.96 kj/mole; δhfus is the energy required to melt i
marta [7]
When you want to melt an ice, you only need the latent energy of fusion, <span>δhfus. We use the given value, then multiply this with the given amount to determine the amount of energy. Since the energy is per mole basis, use the molar mass of ice which is 18 g/mol. The solution is as follows:

</span>ΔH = 5.96 kJ/mol * 1 mol/18 g * 500 g
<em>ΔH = 165.56 kJ</em><span>

How do I balance this equation? ?KNO3 → ?K2O + ?N2(g)+ ?O2(g) and what type of reaction is it?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2

Explanation:

It's a decomposition, but not a simple one.

KNO3 ==> K2O + N2 + O2   I don't usually do this, but I think the easiest way to proceed is to  balancing the K and N together. That will require a 2 in front of KNO3

4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2

Now you have (3*4) = 12 oxygens. Two are on the K2O. So the other 10 must be on the O2

That should do it.

Find the velocity of a swimmer who swims exactly 220 m toward the shore in 72 s.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: 3.06m/s

Explanation:

Distance covered by swimmer = 220 m

Time taken by swimmer = 72 s.

Velocity = ?

Recall that velocity is the rate of change of distance per unit time. it is measured in metres per second.

Velocity = Distance / time taken

Velocity = 220m / 72seconds

Velocity = 3.055 m/s (approximate to 3.06m/s)
