a book (m = 2 kg) is raised to a height of 1.5 m above the ground. Calculate the gravitational potential energy of the book.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29.4 \ Joules }}[/tex]

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy can be found using the following formula.

[tex]PE_g= m*g*h[/tex]

When m is the mass, g is the gravitational acceleration, and h is the height.

The book has a mass of 2 kilograms. It's height is 1.5 meters above the ground. Assuming this is on Earth, the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s².

[tex]m= 2 \ kg \\h= 1.5 \ m \\g= 9.8 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]PE_g=2 \ kg * 1.5 \ m * 9.8 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Multiply the first two numbers together.

[tex]PE_g=(3.0 \ kg*m)( 9.8 \ m/s^2)[/tex]

Multiply again.

[tex]PE_g=29.4 \ kg*m^2/s^2[/tex]

1 kilogram square meter per square second is equal to 1 Joule The answer we calculated is equal to 29.4 J

[tex]PE_g= 29.4 \ J[/tex]

The gravitational potential energy of the book is 29.4 Joules.

Which of the following statements are true about energy and bonds?
Check all that apply.
A. Energy is necessary for bond formation.
B. Breaking bonds does not absorb or release energy.
C. Breaking bonds takes energy.
D. When bonds are formed, energy is released.

Answers

Answer:

A. Energy is necessary for bond formation.

C. Breaking bonds takes energy.

D. When bonds are formed, energy is released.

Explanation:

Energy is always required for bond formation because when a chemical reaction occurs, either molecular bonds are broken or other bonds are formed to make different molecules. Energy is released during bond formation and is an exothermic process because bond formation represents a stable configuration and the energy lost is released as heat energy that makes it more stable.

Breaking bonds takes energy and is an endothermic reaction because energy is absorbed to break bonds.

Hence, the correct answer is "A. Energy is necessary for bond formation.

C. Breaking bonds takes energy.

D. When bonds are formed, energy is released."

O the amount of water each plant received

o the amount of sun each plant received

O the height of each plant every week

Answers

Answer: Option D:The height of each plant every week

Explanation: In any experiment there are two variables one is independent variable and one is dependent variable.

One values of the experiment that can be changed is the independent variable that is amount of water given to the plants each week.

The values that cannot be changed and is dependent on independent variable is called dependent variable. This means that they change due to the change in the independent variable.

Here, the information that is to be recorded is the dependent variable. Height of each plant every week.

An aqueous solution is 1.00% by mass ethanol, CH3CH2OH, and has a density of 0.996 g/mL.
The molarity of ethanol in the solution is
M.

Answers

The molarity of ethanol in the solution is 0.217 M

Further explanation

Given

1% by mass

density = 0.996 g/ml

Required

The molarity

Solution

mass/ml of Ethanol :

1% x 0.996 g/ml = 0.00996 g/ml

For 1 L solution :

0.00996 g/ml x 1000 ml/L = 9.96 g/L

Convert to mol/L(MW ethanol=46 g/mol) :

9.96 g/L : 46 g/mol= 0.217 mol/L = 0.217 M

Or you can use equation :

[tex]\tt M=\dfrac{\%mass\times \rho\times 10}{MW}\\\\M=\dfrac{1\times 0.996\times 10}{46}=0.217[/tex]

A flask containing 855 grams of water was heated. If the temperature of the water was raised from 21.0 to 85.0 degrees Celsius, how much heat (in joules) did the water absorb? the specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4.184J/g per C

Answers

Answer:

The heat absorbed by the water is 228,948.48 J

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

In this way, between heat and temperature there is a direct proportional relationship (Two magnitudes are directly proportional when there is a constant so that when one of the magnitudes increases, the other also decreases; and the same happens when either of the two decreases .). The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body and its mass, and is the product of the specific heat and the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c and where ΔT is the variation in temperature.

In this case:

c= 4.184 [tex]\frac{J}{g*C}[/tex]m=855 gΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 85 °C - 21°C= 64 °C

Replacing:

Q= 4.184 [tex]\frac{J}{g*C}[/tex] *855 g* 64 C

Solving:

Q= 228,948.48 J

The heat absorbed by the water is 228,948.48 J

Which is the most likely to be reduced?

Answers

Answer : The correct option is, [tex]Zn^{2+}[/tex]

Explanation :

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. That means, the loss of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, oxidation reaction occurs when a reactant losses electrons in the reaction.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. That means, the gain of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, reduction reaction occurs when a reactant gains electrons in the reaction.

According to the electrochemical series, [tex]Zn^{2+}[/tex] most likely to be reduced because

Hence, the ion most likely to be reduced is [tex]Zn^{2+}[/tex].

The most likely to be reduced is Cu ²⁺. Because it is stronger oxidizing agent.

What is an oxidizing agent ?

In a redox chemical reaction, an oxidizing agent is a material that "accepts" or "receives" an electron from a reducing agent. So every substance that oxidizes another material is an oxidant.

A material that induces oxidation by receiving electrons becomes reduced when it acts as an oxidizing agent. A chemical that reduces something by gaining electrons is said to be an oxidizing agent.

The reduction that takes place, which involves Cu, is the one with the highest positive reduction potential. This is because either Cu2+ is a stronger oxidizing agent than Zn2+ or Cu2+ is more likely to be reduced than Zn2+.

Thus, option D is correct.

b) What is the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide compared to nitrogen triodide at the same temperature? __________________

Answers

a. 381.27 m/s

b. the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide = 2.5 faster than nitrogen triiodide

Further explanation

Given

T = 100 + 273 = 373 K

Required

a. the gas speedi

b. The rate of effusion comparison

Solution

a.

Average velocities of gases can be expressed as root-mean-square averages. (V rms)  

[tex]\large {\boxed {\bold {v_ {rms} = \sqrt {\dfrac {3RT} {Mm}}}}[/tex]

R = gas constant, T = temperature, Mm = molar mass of the gas particles  

From the question  

R = 8,314 J / mol K  

T = temperature  

Mm = molar mass, kg / mol  

Molar mass of Sulfur dioxide = 64 g/mol = 0.064 kg/mol

[tex]\tt v=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 8.314\times 373}{0.064} }\\\\v=381.27~m/s[/tex]

b. the effusion rates of two gases = the square root of the inverse of their molar masses:  

[tex]\rm \dfrac{r_1}{r_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{M_2}{M_1} }[/tex]

M₁ = molar mass sulfur dioxide = 64

M₂ =  molar mass nitrogen triodide = 395

[tex]\tt \dfrac{r_1}{r_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{395}{64} }=\dfrac{20}{8}=2.5[/tex]

the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide = 2.5 faster than nitrogen triodide

A bottle of H3PO4 contains 30.00 g, how many moles are in this container?

Answers

Moles in the container : 0.306

Further explanation

Given

30 g of H3PO4

Required

moles in container

Solution

A mole is a unit of many particles (atoms, molecules, ions) where 1 mole is the number of particles contained in a substance that is the same amount as many atoms in 12 gr C-12  

1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles  

While the number of moles can also be obtained by dividing the mass (in grams) with the molar mass of element or molecule  

MW of H3PO4 = 3.1 + 31 + 4.16 = 98 g/mol

mol = mass : MW

mol = 30 : 98

mol = 0.306

You have 28.5 g of iron shot that has a volume of 3.60 mL. From this information, calculate the density of iron.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf \rho \approx 7.917 \ g/mL}}[/tex]

Explanation

Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume.

[tex]\rho=\frac{m}{v}[/tex]

We know the iron sheet has a mass of 28.5 grams and the volume is 3.60 milliliters.

[tex]m= 28.5 \ g \\d= 3.60 \ mL[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]\rho=\frac{28.5 \ g}{ 3.60 \ mL}[/tex]

Divide.

[tex]\rho = 7.91666667 \ g/mL[/tex]

Let's round to the nearest thousandth.

The 6 in the ten-thousandth tells us to round the 6 to a 7.

[tex]\rho \approx 7.917 \ g/mL[/tex]

The density of iron is about 7.917 grams per milliliter.
