  • Sugar dissolves easily in water, but sand does not because sugar has greater solubility than sand.
  • A solution is made by mixing a substance (solute) in a medium (solvent). The chemical property of the solute that describes how easily the solute will dissolve in a given solvent is known as its solubility.
  • The greater the solubility of a solute the more easily it dissolves in a solvent.
  • The solubility of different solutes varies from each other and, also varies from one solvent to another.
  • If we compare sugar and sand then sugar has more solubility in water as compared to sand and, is able to dissolve more quickly and easily.

The correct answer is Sugar has a greater solubility than sand.

Sugar will easily dissolve in water because it has a lower density than sand, therefore it has a greater solubility.

The graph represents velocity vs. time for Carla. A graph with horizontal axis time (seconds) and vertical axis velocity (meters
kherson [118]

Answer:

The statement that best describes the graph is Carla slowed down in the beginning of her trip, stopped, and then sped up.

Explanation:

Data:

Horizontal axis = time.

Vertical axis = velocity (m/s).

A line runs in straight segments

  • <em>from 0 seconds 15 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 1 seconds 13 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 2 seconds 10 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 3 seconds 4 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 4 seconds 0 m/s.</em>
  • <em>to 6 seconds 4 m/s.</em>

According to the data present in the graph, it can be seen that Carla starts with a speed in her career, which decreases over time. After four seconds she stops, remains stopped for one second and starts running again, with an initial speed of 4 m/s.

<em>In conclusion, the graph show Carla -who is moving- slows down until she stops, and then starts the race again.</em>

NARA [144]
Psoriasis is a skin disease that manifests itself in symptoms of varying severity. It is a chronic disease that can not be cured but can be alleviated by many treatments (like chemotherapy).
Photochemotherapy: also called P-UVA. It consists of the combination of UVA (a type of UV light) radiation after the local or oral administration of a psoralen that acts as a sensitizing photo. It is used alternately in patients for whom UVB (another type of UV) has no effect, as P-UVA is more effective and longer-lasting, but is associated with basiloma (basal cell carcinoma) and melanoma.

The __________ process occurring in the liver rids the bloodstream of 90% of the alcohol present and is a constant process.
snow_lady [41]

The following options are attached to the above question:

A. Metabolism

B. Absorption

C. Oxidation

D. Excretion


ANSWER

The correct option is C.

Biological oxidation of alcohol is the process by which the liver handles the presence of alcohol in the body system. The liver is responsible for metabolizing the alcohol that are present in the body. The metabolism of alcohol occurs in two steps; the first step is the oxidation of alcohol to ethanal or acetaldehyde. This product is very toxic to the human body and is majorly responsible for the symptoms of hangover that drinkers usually experience. The liver oxidises ethanal to acetic acid as quickly as possible in order to prevent damage to the body system.
