Explain why copper is used for the roofs of some buildings and magnesium is not.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Scrat [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Because of the less reactivity of copper.

Explanation:

As well as being resistant to the elements and thereby less likely to be affected by rainfall, hail, and mildew than other types of roofing, copper is also one of the most fireproof materials available. Copper is also highly resistant to thermal changes and thereby doesn't deteriorate quickly.

Magnesium would also corrode PDQ. Magnesium sheeting would also pose an unacceptably high fire hazard.

Where are electrons most likely to be found in the cloud?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

nucleus

Explanation:

Electrons are found in clouds that surround the nucleus of an atom. Those clouds are specific distances away from the nucleus and are generally organized into shells. Because electrons move so quickly, it is impossible to see where they are at a specific moment in time.

PLZ HELP For the reaction: 2NO2(g) → N2O4(l),
Furkat [3]

Answer: \Delta H_{rxn}=-20kJ/mol-(+66kJ/mol)

Explanation:

Heat of reaction or enthalpy change is the energy released or absorbed during the course of the reaction.

It is calculated by subtracting the enthalpy of reactants from the enthalpy of products.

\Delta H=H_{products}-H_{reactants}

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

H_{products} = enthalpy of products

H_{reactants} = enthalpy of reactants

For the given reaction :

2NO_2(g)\rightarrow N_2O_4(l)

\Delta H=H_{N_2O_4}-2\times H_{NO_2}

\Delta H=-20kJ/mol-(+66kJ/mol)

Many angiosperms rely on animals for
slavikrds [6]
Many angiosperm species rely on the interaction between animals and their flowers for reproduction. As insects, birds or other animals move from one flower to another feeding on nectar, they commonly distribute pollen from flower to flower as they go which leads to plants being pollinated and seeds to be produced.
