Which of the following solutes dissolved in 1000g of water would provide the fewest number of particles?A) 1000 g of glucose (C6H12O6)
B) 1000 g of sodium chloride (NaCl)
C) 1000 g of calcium carbonate (CaCO3)
D) 1000 g of potassium sulfate (K2SO4)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The number of particles a solute provides in a solution depends on its chemical formula and how it dissociates or ionizes in water.

A) 1000 g of glucose (C6H12O6) does not ionize or dissociate in water, so it remains as individual molecules. Therefore, it provides the fewest particles since it's composed of only C, H, and O atoms.

B) 1000 g of sodium chloride (NaCl) dissociates into two ions (Na⁺ and Cl⁻) in water, so it provides two particles per formula unit.

C) 1000 g of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) can dissociate into three ions (Ca²⁺, CO₃²⁻) in water, so it provides three particles per formula unit.

D) 1000 g of potassium sulfate (K2SO4) can dissociate into three ions (2K⁺ and SO₄²⁻) in water, so it also provides three particles per formula unit.

So, option A, 1000 g of glucose (C6H12O6), provides the fewest number of particles because it doesn't dissociate or ionize in water.

A rock at the edge of a 200-m high cliff has more potential energy than an equal sized rock at the edge of a 600-m high cliff. True or False

Answers

Answer: The given statement is False.

Explanation:

Potential energy is defined as the energy possessed due to the height of the object.

Mathematically,

E_p=mgh

where,

E_p = potential energy of the rock

m = mass of the rock

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

h = height of the cliff from where the rock is thrown

  • When height of the cliff is 200 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

E_p=m* 9.8* 200m\n\nE_p=1960m

  • When height of the cliff is 600 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

E_p=m* 9.8* 600m\n\nE_p=5880m

So, E_p(60m)>E_p(200m)

Potential energy of the rock at 600-m high cliff is more than the potential energy of the rock at 200-m high cliff

Hence, the given statement is False.

It is false. The higher an object is the more potential energy they have.
