Which one has more mass a bag of cotton balls or a bag of nails and explain

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mama L [17]3 years ago
6 0
You would think that the bag of nails would have more mass but their masses are identical. <span>If you were to put them both in a vacuum chamber and let them fall from a great height, they would fall the same speed. The vacuum chamber would suck all of the air out of the cotton balls, thus making it heavier and weigh the same as the bag of nails.

Hopefully this is helpful and makes sense.</span>

When aluminium and chlorine compared , which has smaller atomic size ? Why ?​
Zielflug [23.3K]
Chlorine has a smaller atomic size.
Explanation: As you move towards right of the periodic table, the atomic size decreases. This is because the number of protons is increasing towards the right of the periodic table, which applies a greater inward force on the electrons. that is why the elements on the right of the periodic table have a smaller atomic size when compared to the elements on the left. Since chlorine is on the right side of aluminium, it has a smaller atomic size.

A 5 mole sample of liquid acetone is converted to a gas at 75.0°C. If 628 J are required to raise the temperature of the liquid
velikii [3]
The total energy required for this conversion is equivalent to the sum of the energies that are used. There are three steps:

1) Heating of liquid acetone
This used 628 J

2) Evaporation of acetone
This used 15.6 kJ or 15,600 J

3) Heating of acetone vapors
This used 712 J

Adding these quantities,

Total energy = 628 + 15,600 + 712

The total energy required was <span>16940 Joules of 16.94 kJ</span>

Solutions of sodium carbonate and silver nitrate react to form solid silver carbonate and a solution of sodium nitrate. A soluti
koban [17]

Answer:

1) 2.0 g

2) 0 g

3) 4.17 g

4) 2.57 g

Explanation:

First of all, we need to know the compounds and the reaction. The ion carbonate is CO3^{-2}, and the ion nitrate is NO3^{-}.

Sodium is in group 1, so it must lose one electron to be stable, and be the cation Na^{+}. Silver has only one electron too, so the cation will be Ag^{+}.

To form the chemical compounds, first we put the cation, then the anion, and change their charges without the signal:

Sodium carbonate: Na2CO3

Silver nitrate: AgNO3

Silver carbonate: Ag2CO3

Sodium nitrate: NaNO3

The balanced reaction will be:

Na2CO3 + 2 AgNO3 --> Ag2CO3 + 2 NaNO3

Now, we must check the stoichiometry, which will be 1:2:1:2 (always in number of moles)

The question wants to know the mass value, so we need to know the molar mass of these compounds. Checking the periodic table will see that:

Na = 23 g/mol, C = 12 g/mol, N = 14 g/mol, O = 16 g/mol, Ag = 108 g/mol

So the molar mass of the compounds must be:

Na2CO3 = 106 g/mol (2x23 + 12 + 3x16)

AgNO3 = 170 g/mol (108 + 14 + 3x16)

Ag2CO3 = 276 g/mol (2x108 + 12 + 3x16)

NaNO3 = 85 g/mol

We have a mixture of the reactants, so one probably would be in excess, so, first will need to test. Let's do the stoichiometry calculus using silver nitrate as the limit, so:

1 mol of Na2CO3 ---------- 2 mol of AgNO3

106 g ------------------------------ 2x170 = 340 g

x ------------------------------------ 5.14 g

By a simple direct three rule:

340x = 544.84

x = 1.6 g of Na2CO3

That means that for this reaction, we only need 1.6 g of Na2CO3 to react with 5.14 of AgNO3. How we have 3.60 g of Na2CO3, it is on excess, and all the AgNO3 will be consumed.

1) The mass of Na2CO3 that remains after the reaction will be the initial less the mass that reacted:

m = 3.6 - 1. 6 = 2.0 g

2) All the AgNO3 reacted, so there isn't a mass present after the reaction.

m = 0 g

3) Now, doing the stoichiometry calculus between AgNO3 and Ag2CO3

2 moles of AgNO3 ------------- 1 mol of Ag2CO3

2x170 g ------------------------------- 276 g

5.14 g --------------------------------- x

By a simple direct three rule:

340x = 1418.64

x = 4.17 g of Ag2CO3

4) Now, doing the stoichiometry calculus between AgNO3 and NaNO3

2 moles of AgNO3 ----------------------- 2 moles of NaNO3

2x170 g ---------------------------------------- 2x85 g

5.14 g ------------------------------------------- x

By a simple direct three rule:

340x = 873.8

x = 2.57 g

Which of these statements best compares the pair of line segments with the vertex?
liraira [26]

The line segment is describe  as a line which joints two points. The word segment is denotes the end points of the line. The symbol of the line segment is AB. This symbol is indicating a line from the point A to the point B.

  • Generally, the line segment has two endpoints. The meeting point of two line segments is called as the vertex and also it is considered as a common endpoint on the other hand line is a straight path of points that goes on and on in two directions
  • Vertex is a point where two rays meet OR where the sides of a polygon meet OR the point where three or more edges of a solid figure meet and the angle is Formed by two rays that have the same endpoint
