Answer:

Theory

Explanation:

We are given the statement;

"A helium filled balloon floats."

Now, this statement is an attempt to explain to us why balloons float. And the reason is because they are filled with helium. This is no prediction or law or observation because to find out if the balloons contain helium, there must have been experiments to confirm that.

Thus, the statement in the question is a theory.

An organic acid is composed of carbon (45.45%), hydrogen (6.12%), and oxygen (48.44%). Its molar mass is 132.12 g/mol. Determine
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

C4H8O4

Explanation:

To determine the molecular formula, first, let us obtain the empirical formula. This is illustrated below:

From the question given, we obtained the following information:

C = 45.45%

H = 6.12%

O = 48.44%

Divide the above by their molar mass

C = 45.45/12 = 3.7875

H = 6.12/1 = 6.12

O = 48.44/16 = 3.0275

Divide by the smallest

C = 3.7875/3.0275 = 1

H = 6.12/3.0275 = 2

O = 3.0275/3.0275 = 1

The empirical formula is CH2O

The molecular formula is given by [CH2O]n

[CH2O]n = 132.12

[12 + (2x1) + 16]n = 132.12

30n = 132.12

Divide both side by the coefficient of n i.e 30

n = 132.12/30 = 4

The molecular formula is [CH2O]n = [CH2O]4 = C4H8O4

Suppose you perform a calorimeter experiment to determine the molar heat of neutralization of an unknown acid, H A HA, with sodi
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

-86.02 kJ/ mole

Explanation:

The moles of the acid used = Molarity × Volume (L) =

= 0.50 (0.0372 L)

= 0.0186 moles

The heat released = -1.6 kJ

∴ 0.0186 moles neutralization of HA heat is: -1.6 kJ

The molar heat of neutralization due to one mole of the unknown acid = -1.6/0.0186

= -86.02 kJ/ mole

In the reaction C + O2 → CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be n
bulgar [2K]
<span>Molar mass(C)= 12.0 g/mol
Molar mass (O2)=2*16.0=32.0 g/mol
Molar mass (CO2)=44.0 g/mol

18g C*1mol C/12 g C = 1.5 mol C

                                 C +     O2 →                CO2

from reaction       1 mol    1 mol              1 mol
from problem     1.5 mol   1.5 mol         1.5 mol

1.5 mol O2*32 g O2/1 mol O2 = 48 g O2

In reality this reaction requires only 48 g O2 for 18 g carbon.
And from 18 g carbon you can get only
1.5 mol CO2*44 g CO2/1 mol CO2=66 g CO2
But these problem has 72g CO2. The best that we can think, it is a mix of CO2 and O2.
So to find all amount  of O2  that was added for the reaction (probably people who wrote this problem wanted this)
we need  (the mix of 72g - mass of carbon 18 g)= 54 g.
So the only answer that is possible is

Los automóviles actuales tienen “parachoques de 5 mi/h (8 km/h)” diseñados para comprimirse y rebotar elásticamente sin ningún d
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

k = 23045 N/m

Explanation:

To find the spring constant, you take into account the maximum elastic potential energy that the spring can support. The kinetic energy of the car must be, at least, equal to elastic potential energy of the spring when it is compressed to its limit. Then, you have:

K=U\\\\\frac{1}{2}Mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2    (1)

M: mass of the car = 1050 kg

k: spring constant = ?

v: velocity of the car = 8 km/h

x: maximum compression of the spring = 1.5 cm = 0.015m

You solve the equation (1) for k. But first you convert the velocity v to m/s:

v=8\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=2.222\frac{m}{s}

k=\frac{Mv^2}{x^2}=\frac{(1050kg)(2.222m/s)^2}{(0.015m)^2}=23045\frac{N}{m}

The spring constant is 23045 N/m

An ice cube measuring 5.80 cm by 5.80 cm by 5.80 cm has a density of 0.917 g/mL What is the mass?
OLga [1]

Answer: 178.9 g

Explanation:

Density = \frac{mass}{volume in mL}

find volume of the cube: (5.80 cm) (5.80 cm) (5.80cm) = 195.112 cm³

1.0 cm³ = 1.0 mL

so 195.112 cm³ = 195.112 mL

plug value into density equation:

0.917 g/mL = (mass) / (195.112 mL)

and solve for mass!
