What is moment and its calculations ​

Chemistry
1 answer:
PIT_PIT [208]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Moment=Force x Pivot

Explanation:

A moment is the turning effect of a force. Moments act about a point in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction.

Law of moments:

When an object is balanced (in equilibrium) the sum of the clockwise moments is equal to the sum of the anticlockwise moments.

How to calculate moments:

Moment=Force x Pivot

Which best explains why ionization energy tends to decrease from the top to the bottom of a group?
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Electrons are far apart from the nucleus as we move down the group.

Explanation:

The ionization energy is the amount of energy which is necessary to remove an electron from an atom.

In an atom there exist a force of attraction at the center (nucleus). This is because of the positive charge which exists in the nucleus. This force of attraction is less felt as the distance between the electron and the proton increases. Hence the ionization energy increases as the number of shells increases for an atom. As we move down the group in the periodic table, the number of shells increases which implies a decrease in ionization energy.

How is enthalpy related to the spontaneity of a reaction?
mina [271]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Gibb's free energy change(∆G) and Standard electrode potential of electrochemical (Ecell) determine the spontaneity of a reaction.

when ∆G > 0, the reaction is not spontaneous

∆G < 0, the reaction is spontaneous

∆G = 0, the reaction is in equilibrium

when Ecell > 0, the redox reaction is spontaneous

Ecell < 0, the redox reaction is not spontaneous

Ecell = 0, the redox reaction is in equilibrium.

In science, Bob learns that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. If the energy of
Illusion [34]
Jamuuj ExpertThe energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. Therefore, E = A² where A is the amplitude. This therefore means when the amplitude of a wave is doubled the energy will be quadrupled, when the amplitude is tripled the energy increases by a nine fold and so on.Thus, in this case if the energy is 4J, then the amplitude will be  √4 = 2 .

If a sample has 25% parent and 75% daughter, how many halflifes have gone by?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Two half lives.

Explanation:

It is known that the decay of isotopes and radioactive material obeys first order kinetics.

Also, it is clear that in first order decay the half-life time is independent of the initial concentration.

That means for a sample 100% to decay to 50 % it will take one half-life, and to decay the remaining 50% to 25% it will take another half-life.

So, for a sample has 25% parent and 75% daughter it will have two half-lives.
