Problem One (left)

This is just a straight mc deltaT question

<em><u>Givens</u></em>

m = 535 grams

c = 0.486 J/gm

tf = 50

ti = 1230

Formula

E = m * c * (ti - tf)

Solution

E = 535 * 0.486 * ( 1230 - 50)

E = 535 * 0.486 * (1180)

E = 301077

Answer: A

Problem Two

This one just requires that you multiply the two numbers together and cut it down to 3 sig digits.

E = H m

H = 2257 J/gram

m = 11.2 grams

E = 2257 * 11.2

E = 25278 to three digits is 25300 Joules. Anyway it is the last one.

Three

D and E are both incorrect for the same reason. The sun and stars don't contain an awful lot of Uranium (1 part of a trillion hydrogen atoms). It's too rare. The other answers can all be eliminated because U 235 is pretty stable in its natural state. It has a high activation complex.

Your best chance would be enriched Uranium (which is another way of saying refined uranium). That would be the right environment. Atomic weapons and nuclear power plants (most) used enriched Uranium. You can google "Little Boy" if you want to know more.

Answer: B

Four

The best way to think about this question is just to get the answer. Answer C.

A: incorrect. Anything sticking together implies a larger and larger result. Gases don't work that way. They move about randomly.

B: Wrong. Heat and Temperature especially depend on movement. Stopping is not permitted. If a substance's molecules stopped, the substance would experience an extremely uncomfortable temperature drop.

C: is correct because the molecules neither stop nor do they stick. The hit and move on.

D: Wrong. An ax splitting something? That is not what happens normally and not with ordinary gases. It takes more energy that mere collisions or normal temperatures would provide to get a gas to split apart.

E: Wrong. Same sort of comment as D. Splitting is not the way these things work. They bounce away as in C.

Five

Half life number 1 would leave 0.5 grams behind.

Half life number 2 would leave 1/2 of 1/2 or 1/4 of the number of grams left.

Answer: 0.25

Given :

Rate = 75 m 1 s×60 s 1 min×1 h 60 m.

To Find :

Correct answer after conversion.

Solution :

We know, 1 min = 60 sec.

1 hour = 60 min = 60×60 sec = 3600 sec.

Putting value of min and hour in seconds , we get :

$R=((75\times 60) + 1 )\times ( (60 + 1)\times 60 ) \times ( 3600+3600)\ s^3\\\\R=1.186\times 10^{11} \ s^3$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Walls made of paraffin wax, a covalent compound, help keep the temperature in a room steady as night changes into day and day in

Over [174]

The wall would absorb extra heat during the day when the sun is out, then release the heat back into the room when the sun goes down.

tangare [24]

Elements are ionized because they aspire to be stable. The most stable form are the ones with full octet of electrons, the noble gases which consist of the last column in the periodic table. The rest of the elements either accept or readily donate electrons to conform to the electronic configuration that is the same with the nearest noble gas.

1. Potassium's nearest noble gas is Ar which is one electron fewer. So, when ionized, it donates 1 electron. Hence, K⁺.
2. The nearest noble gas for fluorine is Neon which is 1 electron more. Hence, it has to accept one more electron. Hence, F⁻.

Which of these was not proposed by john dalton in 1805?

wel

Answer:

Atoms are made of protons, neutrons and electrons.

Explanation:

The Dalton's atomic theory was an early attempt at describing the properties of atoms. It stipulated that atoms were the smallest indivisible particle of a substance. Chemical reactions occur as a result of a combination or separation of atoms. Atoms of the same element are exactly alike and differ from atoms of other elements. Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.

As time went on, modern scientific evidence began to modify the original postulates of the Dalton's atomic theory. It was not postulated in 1805 that atoms were composed of subatomic particles; electrons, neutrons and protons. Dalton's theory held the atom to be 'indivisible'. However in 1897, JJ Thompson discovered the electron. Subsequently, the proton and neutrons were discovered. This shows that the atom in itself consisted of even smaller particles.

Explain why you cannot just take away a proton to make a halogen negative.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The force that holds protons and neutrons together is too strong to overcome.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Consider the location of the particles in an atom.

Electrons are found outside the nucleus.
Protons and neutrons are found within the nucleus.

Protons carry positive charges and repel each other. The nucleus will break apart without the strong force that holds the protons and neutrons together. This force is much stronger than the attraction between the nucleus and the electrons. X-rays are energetic enough for removing electrons from an atom. However, you'll need a collider to remove protons from a stable nucleus. You could well have ionized the atom with all that energy.

Also, changing the number of protons per nucleus will convert the halogen atom to an atom of a different element. Rather than making the halogen negative, removing a proton will convert the halogen atom to the negative ion of a different element.
