Nazeeh conducted an experiment to demonstrate the law of conservation of matter. He burned a strip of magnesium that had a beginning mass of 5.0 g over an open flame. The magnesium gave off a bright white light and smoke as it was being burned. The white ash that was left over had a mass of 4.5 g. Nazeeh concluded that his experiment did not uphold the law of conservation of matter.
What did Nazeeh NOT take into consideration when drawing his conclusion?
A
that some of the mass was lost to the air as light

B
that mass has absolutely no relationship to matter

C
that some of the mass was lost to the air as smoke

D
that ash has a lower mass than the strip of magnesium

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C

that some of the mass was lost to the air as smoke

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A: Light isn´t part of the mass of magnesium, light is energy, it doesn´t occupate space.

B: Mass clearly have a relationship with matter, if you increase the amout of mass, you will increase the amout of matter, one way or another.

C: It is correct, some of the mass was lost because hot gases tend to go up.

D: Yes, the ash has a lower mass than magnesium, but it is not because ash is lighter or something like that. It is because some of the ash was lost due to the air.

In Space, an astronaut releases a wrench from his hand. The wrench has a mass of 4 grams and is traveling with a velocity of -15m/s. The Astronaut’s mass is 70kg. What is his Velocity?

Answers

Answer:

860 cm/s

Explanation:

Let P = momentum of wrench-man system before throwing the wrench and P' = momentum of wrench-man system before throwing the wrench.

From the law of conservation of momentum,

P = P'

P = 0 (since both Astronaut and wrench were initially stationary) and P' = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ where m₁ = mass of wrench = 4g = 0.004 kg v₁ = velocity of wrench after releasing the wrench = -15 m/s m₂ = mass of Astronaut = 70 kg and v₂ =  velocity of Astronaut after releasing the wrench.

So, P = P'

0 = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

-m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

dividing both sides by m₂, we have

v₂ = -m₁v₁/m₂

substituting in the values of the variables, we have

v₂ = -0.004 kg × (-15 m/s)/70 kg

= 0.06 kgm/s ÷ 70 kg

= 8.6 × 10⁻⁴ m/s

= 860 × 10⁻² m/s

= 860 cm/s

What is electronegativity

Answers

Answer:

Electronegativity, symbol χ, measures the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons (or electron density). An atom's electronegativity is affected by both its atomic number and the distance at which its valence electrons reside from the charged nucleus. The higher the associated electronegativity, the more an atom or a substituent group attracts electrons.

Human reaction time is usually about 0.18 s. If your lab partner holds a ruler between your finger and thumb and releases it from rest without warning, how far can you expect the ruler to fall before you catch it? (a = -g = -9.81 m/s .) - 0.32 m ⊝ - 0.88 m ⊝ - 0.16 m ⊝ - 0.09 m ⊝ CLEAR ALL ❮ PREVIOUS

Answers

Answer:

–0.16 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 0.18 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = –9.81 m/s²

Height (h) =?

We can obtain how far the ruler will fall by using the following equation:

H = ½gt²

H = ½ × –9.81 × 0.18²

H = ½ × –9.81 × 0.0324

H = –0.16 m

Thus, the ruler will fall –0.16 m before you will catch it.

Answer:

17. Yes, it represents a chemical reaction. This is because new substances were formed from the original substance.

18. (a) Formation of new substances

(b) Evolution or absorption of large quantity of heat

(c)Change in mass of substances

Explanation:

17. In the model above, molecules of a compound of carbon and hydrogen (molecular formula is C2H6) combines with molecular oxygen (O2) to produce two new substances; a compound composed of two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom (CO2) and another compound composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen (H2O). Since the new substances formed are completely different from the original substances, it a chemical reaction. Also, a large volume of heat would have been given off.

18. To determine if a chemical reaction has occurred, the following observations can be looked out for.

a. Formation of new substances different entirely from the original substances

b. Evolution or absorption of large quantity of heat during the change. Check whether the vessel containing the substances gets hotter or colder.

c. Change in mass of substances. Since new substances are formed in a chemical reaction, there is usually a significant change in mass of the products and reactants.

How are Parkinson's disease and ALS similar?

Answers

Answer:

Both diseases affect the control of voluntary muscles.

Explanation:

Parkinson's disease is a progressive brain disease that affects movement. It affects the nerve cells that produce dopamine in the part of the brain called substantia nigra. The symptoms include shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with walking, balance, and coordination. Symptoms get worse with time, often leaving people with difficulty walking and talking.

ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The first symptoms usually involve muscle weakness, and as the disease progresses, it results in the loss of muscle control.

Scientists don't know the exact cause of these diseases. As the cause is not known, there is no exact way to prevent them. There is no cure for them, either. The treatment is focused on the management of symptoms.

A 283.3-g sample of X2(g) has a volume of 30 L at 3.2 atm and 27 'C. What is element X?

we find the number of moles with the formula

pV=nRT

27C=300k

3.2*30=n*0.082*300

n=96/24.6=3.9 moles

we have the mass ant the number of moles so we can calculate the molar mass

283.3/3.9=72.64g/moles

that means X's mass is 72.64/2=36.3 so the element is Kr(Kriptonium)

The correct answer is - S- configuration.

Explanation:

Placing the numbers in order of the priorities of each reactant in the reaction is essential to determining the configuration of the reactant and product in the biological oxidation of isotopically labeled ethane.

CH3 - T- D is the correct order of the increasing of the priorties. so this is moving from CH3 to D which is Anti-clockwise which means the configuartion is S as we know clockwise movement is R configuarion and anti-clockwise in S configuartion.

What is the free energy change if the ratio of the concentrations of the products to the concentrations of the reactants is 22.3, and the temperature is 37.0 °C? ?G°\' for the reaction is –16.7 kJ/mol.

Answers

The free energy change(Gibbs free energy-ΔG)=-8.698 kJ/mol

Further explanation

Given

Ratio of the concentrations of the products to the concentrations of the reactants is 22.3

Temperature = 37 C = 310 K

ΔG°=-16.7 kJ/mol

Required

the free energy change

Solution

Ratio of the concentration : equilbrium constant = K = 22.3

We can use Gibbs free energy :

ΔG = ΔG°+ RT ln K

R=8.314 .10⁻³ kJ/mol K
