Answer:
Freeze wedging is caused by the repeated freeze-thaw. Frost wedging occurs as the result of 9% expansion of water when it is converted to ice. Cracks filled with water are forced further apart when it freezes.
Answer:
I think it would be at 0.7 kg mass of the sun
Answer:
Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).
- It melts once it reaches its melting point.

Each half-life results in ~50% (1/2) of the original element remaining.
7500/1250 = 6 half-lives, so 100(1/2)^6
= 100(0.015625)
= 1.5625% of the original element would remain
Answer:
Phenols do not exhibit the same pka values as other alcohols;
They are generally more acidic.
Using the knowledge that hydrogen acidity is directly related to the stability of the anion formed, explain why phenol is more acidic than cyclohexane.
Explanation:
According to Bromsted=Lowry acid-base theory,
an acid is a substance that can release
ions when dissolved in water.
So, acid is a proton donor.
If the conjugate base of an acid is more stable then, that acid is a strong acid.
In the case of phenol,
the phenoxide ion formed is stabilized by resonance.

The resonance in phenoxide ion is shown below:
Whereas in the case of cyclohexanol resonance is not possible.
So, cyclohexanol is a weak acid compared to phenol.
