The force of gravity on the 1 kg box is 2 N.

The formula for the force of gravity <em>F</em> on an object with mass <em>m</em> is

<em>F</em> = (<em>GmM</em>)/<em>d</em>²

Since <em>G</em>, <em>M</em> , and <em>d</em> are the same for both objects, (<em>GM</em>)/<em>d</em>² = a constant = <em>k </em>). Then, we can write

<em>F = km </em>

<em>F</em>₂/<em>F</em>₁ = <em>m</em>₂/<em>m</em>₁

<em>F</em>₂ = <em>F</em>₁ × <em>m</em>₂/<em>m</em>₁

If the 2.5 kg box is object 1,

<em>F</em>₂= 6.1 N × (1 kg/2.5 kg) = 2 N

<em>Note</em>: The answer can have <em>only one significant figure</em> because that is all you gave for the mass of the 1 kg object.

Which postulate of Dalton's theory is consistent with the following observation concerning the weights of reactants and products
hram777 [196]

<u>Answer:</u> This illustrates law of conservation of mass.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Dalton's theory is based on mainly two laws which are law of conservation of mass and law of constant proportion.

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.

The chemical equation for the decomposition of calcium carbonate follows:

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

We are given:

Mass of calcium carbonate = 100 grams

Mass of calcium oxide = 56 grams

Mass of carbon dioxide = 44 grams

Total mass on reactant side = 100  g

Total mass on product side = 56 + 44 = 100 g

As, the total mass on reactant side is equal to the total mass on product side.

Thus, this illustrates law of conservation of mass.

A pan containing 40 grams of water was allowed to cool from a temperature of 91.0C. If the amount of heat repressed is 1,300 jou
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

83°C

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question:

M = 40g

C = 4.2J/g°C

T1 = 91°C

T2 =?

Q = 1300J

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/CM

ΔT = 1300/(4.2x40)

ΔT = 8°C

But ΔT = T1 — T2 (since the reaction involves cooling)

ΔT = T1 — T2

8 = 91 — T2

Collect like terms

8 — 91 = —T2

— 83 = —T2

Multiply through by —1

T2 = 83°C

The final temperature is 83°C

Which of the following are pure substances? Explain. (a) Calcium chloride, used to melt ice on roads, consists of two elements,
Basile [38]

Answer:

they are pure substances: (b) and (d)

Explanation:

sulfur and cytosine are pure substances, since its composition does not changes even if the physical condition in which it is found changes.

These can not be broken down into othwer simpler substances using physical methods.

Pure substances have their own and definite characteristics.

Imagine if during the cathode ray experiment, the size of the particles of the ray was the same as the size of the atom forming
yanalaym [24]

This would support Dalton's postulates that says atoms are indivisible because there are no smaller particles than the atoms.

Explanation:

If during Thomson's cathode rays experiment, the size of the particles produced is the same as the size of the atom forming the cathode, it would perfect corroborate with Dalton's postulate.

  • John Dalton believed the simplest substance of any matter is an atom.
  • An atom is indivisible and cannot be broken down.
  • From his atomic theory, matter does not any other smaller particles besides atom.
  • If the size of the atoms of rays and that of the cathode were to be the same, this would have supported his claim.

Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction below if a tank was found to contain 0.106M O2, 0.00652M SO3, and 0.00129M S
malfutka [58]

equilibrium constant K = 4.15 × 10⁻³

Explanation:

We have the following chemical equilibrium:

2 SO₃ (g) ⇄ 2 SO₂ (g) + O₂ (g)

equilibrium constant K = ( [SO₂]² × [O₂] ) / [SO₃]²

equilibrium constant K = ( 0.00129² × 0.106 ) / 0.00652²

equilibrium constant K = 0.414 × 10⁻² = 4.14 × 10⁻³ ≈ 4.15 × 10⁻³
