Answer:

If the earthworm's skin dries then they will not breath properly because moisture help them out to ease the diffusion of oxygen through its skin.

Explanation:

Hello,

Based on the required hypothesis, the best describing one considering the question "How is earthworm behavior affected by external stimuli?", would be:

If the earthworm's skin dries then they will not breath properly because moisture help them out to ease the diffusion of oxygen through its skin.

In this case, we are specifying a possible condition, this is "the earthworm's skin dries" which is a cause of an external stimuli (dryness). Next, we propose an effect, this is "they will not breath properly", that is caused by the initial part. Finally, we explain the effect via the cause "moisture help them out to ease the diffusion of oxygen through its skin" because is something testable via the subsequent experiments when considering the scientific method.

Best regards.

sorry about the late response...

<u>If an earthworm is exposed to dry conditions, then it will retreat to a moist place because its skin needs to stay moist for the earthworm to survive.</u>

Which of the following statements is not correct?
Pavlova-9 [17]
Answer: This option is incorrect: <span>B. Covalent compounds are held together by much stronger interparticle forces than are ionic compounds.

Justification:

Ionic bonds, held by ionic compounds, are much stronger than covalent bonds, held by covalent compounds.

In ionic bonds one element yields one or more electrons forming a cation (a positively charged ion) and the other element accepts the electrons forming an anion (a negatively charged ion).

The anion and the cation are electrostatically atracted by each other. This electrostatic atraction force, named ionic bond, is very strong.

As result of this, the ionic compounds form strong crystals with high boiling and fusion points. A good example of this the sodium chloride, formed by the union of cation Na(+) and anion Cl(-).

The covalent bonds are result of sharing electrons and do not form ions. This bond is weaker than the ionic bond.

Why do electrons gain energy?
Novay_Z [31]

Electrons can gain the energy it needs by absorbing light. If the electron jumps from the second energy level down to the first energy level, it must give off some energy by emitting light. The atom absorbs or emits light in discrete packets called photons, and each photon has a definite energy.

How many grams of fluorine must be reacted with excess lithium iodide to produce 10.0 grams of lithium fluoride?
rewona [7]
Answer:
             7.32 g of F₂

Solution:
              The equation is as follow,

                                   2 LiI  +  F₂    →    2 LiF  +  I₂

According to equation,

           51.88 g (2 mole) of LiF is produced from  =  37.99 g (1 mole) F₂
So,
                          10 g of LiF will be produced by  =  X g of F₂

Solving for X,
                      X  =  (10 g × 37.99 g) ÷ 51.88 g

                      X  =  7.32 g of F₂

What is the balanced NET ionic equation for the reaction when aqueous Cs₃PO₄ and aqueous AgNO₃ are mixed in solution to form sol
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the net ionic equation of a chemical reaction shows up the ionic species that result from the simplification of the spectator ions, which are those at both reactants and products sides, we take into account that aqueous species ionize into ions whereas liquid, solid and gas species remain unionized. In such a way, for the reaction of cesium phosphate and silver nitrate we can write the complete molecular equation:

Cs_3PO_4(aq)+3AgNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)+3CsNO_3(aq)

Whereas the three aqueous salts are ionized in order to write the following complete ionic equation:

3Cs^+(aq)+PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ag^+(aq)+3NO_3^-(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)+3Cs^+(aq)+3NO_3^-(aq)

In such a way, since the cesium and nitrate ions are the spectator ions because of the aforementioned, the net ionic equation turns out:

PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)

Best regards!
