A 1.85 kg textbook is sitting on a bookshelf 2.23 m above the floor. How much potential energy does it have?

Explanation:

Potential energy is energy due to position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

The mass of the textbook is 1.85 kilograms. Assuming this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second. The height is 2.23 meters.

Substitute the values into the formula.

Multiply the first 2 numbers together.

Multiply again.

The textbook has 40.4299 Joules of potential energy.

2h2o2--> 2h2o + o2

this reaction is of the spontaneous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen.

add 2 molecules of hydrogen peroxide and 2 molecules of water. since oxygen is naturally diatomic, the total number of atoms of each element is now the same on both sides of the equation so it is balanced.

this may not be entirely correct but let me know.
