Why are weight and mass used synonymously on Earth?

Chemistry

sasho [114]2 years ago

The difference between mass and time is the influence of the earth's gravitational force on objects

<h3><em>Further explanation</em></h3>

In general, some people equate mass and weight.

Mass is one of the principal quantities, which is related to the matter in the matter, whereas weight is a force that leads to the center of the earth which is subject to the earth to matter (Earth's gravitational force)

So that the mass does not depend on the location of the object, while the weight can change depending on the position of the object

In international standards, the mass unit is kg while the weight is in units of newton

1 kg itself is the mass of a cylinder made of platinum-iridium

While the standard mass of an atom is determined according to the carbon-12 atomic mass of 12 atomic mass units

1 atomic mass unit comparable to 1.6605402.10-17 kg

Measuring the atomic mass using a mass spectrometer.

The mass itself can be measured by the arm balance while the weight is measured by the spring balance

One equation that can relate mass and force (weight) is

W = m.g

W = weight, N

m = mass, kg

g = gravity acceleration, m / s2

Actually mass and weight are two different things but most people did not understand the difference between them. And they are used synonymously on the earth. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter and weight is the measure of how the force of gravity acts on the mass that is Weight = mass x force of gravity. And they are also directly proportional to each other that is also the reason both terms are used synonymously.

If 4.168 kJ of heat is added to a calorimeter containing 75.40 g of water, the temperature of the water and the calorimeter incr
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The value of  the heat capacity of the Calorimeter  C_c = 54.4 \frac{J}{c}

Explanation:

Given data

Heat added Q = 4.168 KJ = 4168 J

Mass of water m_w = 75.40 gm

Temperature change = ΔT = 35.82 - 24.58 = 11.24 ° c

From the given condition

Q = m_w C_w ΔT + C_c ΔT

Put all the values in above equation we get

4168 = 75.70 × 4.18 × 11.24 +  C_c × 11.24

611.37 =  C_c × 11.24

C_c = 54.4 \frac{J}{c}

This is the value of  the heat capacity of the Calorimeter.

What volume will 6.745g of neon gas occupy at standard temp and pressure?
Thepotemich [5.8K]
First, multiply the mass by the molar mass of neon to find out how many moles of neon there are. Then, multiply by 22.4 to find out how many liters there are.

6.745g Ne x 1 mole Ne/20 g Ne x 22.4 L/1 mole Ne = 7.5544 L

To convert m-ethylaniline to m-ethylfluorobenzene, it should be treated with nitrous acid followed by _____________.
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

NaBF_4

Explanation:

In this reaction, we must exchange the amino group (NH_2) for a fluorine atom (F). Also, the first step in this reaction is the addition of nitrous acid.

We must remember that the amino group in the presence of nitrous acid produces a diazonium salt. The N_2 group is a very good leaving group and many benzene derivatives can be produced from this intermediate (see figure 1).

If what we want is to bond a fluorine atom we must use NaBF_4 to be able to produce m-ethylfluorobenzene (see figure 2).

I hope it helps!

Which of the following is not the same as 0.032 liters?
sineoko [7]
This question needs the answer choices.

I found these choices for you:
<span>0.00032hL
320cL
32mL

Then  you need to make the conversion of 0.032 liters to hectoliters, centiliters and milimilters to check which is not equivalent.

1) 0.032 liters to hectoliters:

    0.032 liter *  1 hectoliter / 100 liter = 0.00032 hecoliter

2) 0.032 liter to centiliters:

    0.032 liter * 100 centiliters / 1 liter = 3.2 centiliter

3) 0.032 liter to mililiter:

    0.032 liter * 1000 mililiter / liter = 32 mililiter

Then, the answer is 320 cL: 320 cL is not the same as 0.032 liters
