When carbon reacts with a small amount of oxygen? When carbon is oxidized in a small amount of oxygen, the principle product formed is carbon monoxide (CO), when the oxidation occurs in a higher concentration of oxygen, the principle product formed is carbon dioxide (CO2). What happens when carbon reacts with excess of oxygen? Carbon […]
Can electrons exist alone?
Can electrons exist alone? Electrons have mass, charge, angular momentum, an intrinsic magnetic moment and helicity, but they have no known substructure. No two electrons can occupy the same space at the same time. They are part of every atom but they can exist separately on their own as well. What happens to the atoms […]

Is gravity the same in a plane?
Is gravity the same in a plane? You are correct that the force of gravity is slightly less the further you get from the earth. Airlines typically cruise around 30,000 – 35,000 feet. The force of gravity on Everest is about 0.434% less than the standard 9.8N/kg. This means that one pound at Sea Level […]
Can you differentiate tangential velocity and tangential acceleration?
Can you differentiate tangential velocity and tangential acceleration? If the tangential velocity is not changing directions, then the object is not moving in a circle. Tangential acceleration results from the change in magnitude of the tangential velocity of an object. An object can move in a circle and not have any tangential acceleration. How do […]
Does spring constant depend on gravity?
Does spring constant depend on gravity? Gravity has nothing to do with the spring constant. It can only effect the net force on the spring depending on the orientation of the spring. If the spring is oriented horizontally, gravity has no effect. Does spring constant change with compression? The proportional constant k is called the […]
How long does it take light to travel from the sun to Pluto?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of coal power?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of coal power? Coal energy is an affordable energy source because of the coal’s stable price compared to other fuel sources. Coal is easy to burn. Coal produces high energy upon combustion. Coal energy is inexpensive. Why should we not use coal? In 2012, coal accounted for 37.4% of […]
Does it matter where you put the dots on a Lewis structure?
Does it matter where you put the dots on a Lewis structure? In almost all cases, chemical bonds are formed by interactions of valence electrons in atoms. To facilitate our understanding of how valence electrons interact, a simple way of representing those valence electrons would be useful. Again, it does not matter on which sides […]
What are 5 scientific laws?
What are 5 scientific laws? What are the five scientific laws? The five most popular scientific laws are Hooke’s Law of Elasticity, Archimedes’ Principle of Buoyancy, Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures, Bernoulli’s Law of Fluid Dynamics and Fourier’s Law of Heat Conduction. Do scientific laws and legal laws have anything in common? Scientific laws may […]
