Based on the data obtained from the reaction, the following conclusions can be made;

according to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the product was higher than the reactant because of the mass of oxygen added during the combustion.
the percent yield is less than 100% because of loss in mass of either reactants or products.
the errors could have occurred during the weighing and transfer of reactants and products
repeated measurements are required in order to improve accuracy

<h3>What is the percent yield of the reaction?</h3>

Equation of the reaction is given below:

2 Mg + O₂ ----> 2 MgO

Trial 1

Mass of empty crucible with lid = 26.698 (g)

Mass of Mg metal, crucible, and lid = 27.040 (g)

Mass of MgO, crucible, and lid = 27.198 (g)

Mass of metal = 27.040 - 26.698 = 0.342

Mass of MgO = 27.198 - 26.698 = 0.500

<h3>Moles of Mg used</h3>

moles of Mg = mass/molar mass

molar mass of Mg = 24 g

moles of Mg = 0.342/24 = 0.01425

<h3>Moles of MgO expected</h3>

Based on the equation of reaction;

moles of MgO expected = 0.01425

moles of MgO produced = mass/molar mass

molar mass of MgO = 40 g/mol

moles of MgO produced = 0.500/40 = 0.0125

<h3>Percent yield</h3>

Percent yield = (moles of MgO produced/moles of MgO expected) * 100%

Percentage yield = 0.0125/0.01425 * 100%

Percent yield of MgO = 87.7%

Trial 2

Mass of empty crucible with lid = 26.691 (g)

Mass of Mg metal, crucible, and lid = 27.099 (g)

Mass of MgO, crucible, and lid = 27.361 (g)

Mass of metal = 27.099 - 26.691 = 0.408

Mass of MgO = 27.361 - 26.691 = 0.670

<h3>Moles of Mg used</h3>

moles of Mg = mass/molar mass

molar mass of Mg = 24 g

moles of Mg = 0.408/24 = 0.0170

<h3>Moles of MgO expected</h3>

Based on the equation of reaction;

moles of MgO expected = 0.0170

moles of MgO produced = mass/molar mass

molar mass of MgO = 40 g/mol

moles of MgO produced = 0.670/40 = 0.01675

<h3>Percent yield</h3>

Percent yield = (moles of MgO produced/moles of MgO expected) * 100%

Percent yield = 0.01675/0.0170 * 100%

Percent yield of MgO = 98.5%

Average percent yield = (87.7 + 98.5)% / 2

Average percent yield = 89.0%

Based on the data obtained from the reaction, the following conclusion can be made;

according to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the product was higher than the reactant because of the mass of oxygen added during the combustion.
the percent yield is less than 100% because of loss in mass of either reactants or products.
the errors could have occurred during the weighing and transfer of reactants and products
repeated measurements are required in order to improve accuracy

At what speed would a 3.00 x 10^4 kg airplane have to fly and with a momentum of 1.60 x 10^9 kg.m/s

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

5.3×10⁴ m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

Momentum = mass× velocity

M = mV................ Equation 1

Where M = momentum of the airplane, m = mass of the airplane, V = Velocity of the airplane

make V the subject of the equation

V = M/m.................. Equation 2

Given: M = 1.6×10⁹ Kg.m/s, m = 3.0×10⁴ kg

Substitute these values into equation 2

V = 1.6×10⁹/3.0×10⁴

V = 5.3×10⁴ m/s

A diver 40 m deep in 10 degrees C fresh water exhales a 1.5 cm diameter bubble.

zzz [600]

Answer:

0.0257259766982 m

Explanation:

$P_2$ = Atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa

$d_1$ = Initial diameter = 1.5 cm

$d_2$ = Final diameter

$\rho$ = Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

h = Depth = 40 m

The pressure is

$P_1=P_2+\rho gh\\\Rightarrow P_1=101325+1000\times 9.81\times 40\\\Rightarrow P_1=493725\ Pa$

From ideal gas law we have

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{P_1\dfrac{4}{3\times8}\pi d_1^3}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2\dfrac{4}{3\times8}\pi d_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{P_1d_1^3}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2d_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow d_2=(\dfrac{P_1d_1^3T_2}{P_2T_1})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d_2=(\dfrac{493725\times 0.015^3\times (20+273.15)}{101325\times (10+273.15)})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d_2=0.0257259766982\ m$

The diameter of the bubble is 0.0257259766982 m

Two friction disks A and B are brought into contact when the angular velocity of disk A is 240 rpm counterclockwise and disk B i

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

a) αA = 4.35 rad/s²

αB = 1.84 rad/s²

b) t = 3.7 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given:

wA₀ = 240 rpm = 8π rad/s

wA₁ = 8π -αA*t₁

The angle in B is:

$\theta _{B} =4\pi =\frac{1}{2} \alpha _{B} t_{1}^{2} =\frac{1}{2} (\frac{r_{A} }{r_{B} } )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}$

$\alpha _{A} =8\pi (\frac{0.2}{0.15} )^{3} =59.57rad$

$w_{B,1} =\alpha _{B} t_{1}=(\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}=0.422\alpha _{A} t_{1}$

The velocity at the contact point is equal to:

$v=r_{A} w_{A} =0.15*(8\pi -\alpha _{A} t_{1})=1.2\pi -0.15\alpha _{A} t_{1}$

$v=r_{B} w_{B} =0.2*(0.422\alpha _{A} t_{1})=0.0844\alpha _{A} t_{1}$

Matching both expressions:

$1.2\pi -0.15\alpha _{A} t_{1}=0.0844\alpha _{A} t_{1}\\\alpha _{A} t_{1}=16.09rad/s$

b) The time during which the disks slip is:

$t_{1} =\frac{\alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}}{\alpha _{A} t_{1}} =\frac{59.574}{16.09} =3.7s$

a) The angular acceleration of each disk is

$\alpha _{A}=\frac{\alpha _{A} t_{1}}{t_{1} } =\frac{16.09}{3.7} =4.35rad/s^{2} (clockwise)$

$\alpha _{B}=(\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} *4.35=1.84rad/s^{2} (clockwise)$

A softball is thrown from the origin of an X-Y coordinate system with an initial speed of 18 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees above

Goshia [24]

Vo = 18 m/s
angle 35 degrees

1) Components of the initial velocity

Vox = Vo*cos(35) = 18*cos(35) m/s = 14.74 m/s
Voy = Vo* sin(35) = 18*sin(35) m/s = 10.32 m/s

2) Equations of postion:

x = Vox*t
y = Voy*t - gt^2 / 2

3) Calculations

A) t = 0.5 s, t = 1.0 st = 1.5 s, t = 2.0 s

x = 14.74 * t

t = 0.5 s => x = 14.74 m/s * 0.5s = 7.37 m

t = 1.0 s => x = 14.74 m/s * 1.0s = 14.74 m

t = 1.5s => x = 22.11 m

t = 2s => x = 29.48 m

B)

y = Voy*t - gt^2 / 2

Voy = 10.32 m/s
g = 10 m/s (approximation)

y = 10.32*t - 5t^2

t = 0.5 s=> y = 3.91m

t = 1 s => y = 5.32m

t = 1.5 s => y = 4.23m

t = 2 s => y = 0.64 m
