Two astronauts are taking a spacewalk outside the International Space Station. The first astronaut has a mass of 85.2 kg. The second has a mass of
65.4 kg. Initially, both astronauts have zero velocity relative to each other.
Then, the astronauts push against each other, giving the first astronaut a final
velocity of 1.2 m/s to the left. If the momentum of the system is conserved,
what is the final velocity of the second person?

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)

Effect of rotenone and antimycin a on electron transfer rotenone, a toxic natural product from plants, strongly inhibits nadh dehydrogenase of insect and fish mitochondria. antimycin a, a toxic antibiotic, strongly inhibits the oxidation of ubiquinol. (a) explain why rotenone ingestion is lethal to some insect and fish species. (b) explain why antimycin a is a poison. (c) given that rotenone and antimycin a are equally effective in blocking their respective sites in the electron-transfer chain, which would be a more potent poison? explain.

Suppose a pair of chemical compounds a and b can react in two different ways: a + b -> c reaction 1 gives product c. a + b -> d reaction 2 gives product d. the following facts are known about the two reactions: . reaction 1 is endothermic and reaction 2 is exothermic. if a reaction vessel is charged (filled) with a and b , then at first d is produced faster than c. use these facts to sketch a qualitative reaction energy diagram for both reactions. note: because these sketches are only qualitative, the energies don? t have to be exact. they only have to have the right relationship to each other. for example, if one energy is less than another, that fact should be clear in your sketch.
