Maru [420]3 years ago
6 0
Hydrophobic mplecules are unable to fissolve in watery solution becuse they dislike water.

Hydro= water
-phobic= fear

Hydrophobic= fear of water, or disliking water
*Think of it like this:
when you mix oil and water, do they mix, or does oil float at the top?

If your reply is "oil float to the top", then you're right. Oil and water DOES NOT mix together. Hope that help!

What is ΔE in kJ for a system that receives 1.79 kJ of heat from surroundings and has 4.51 kcal of work done on it at the same t
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: 20.7 kJ

Explanation:

According to first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta E=q+w

\Delta E=Change in internal energy

q = heat absorbed or released

w = work done or by the system

w = work done on the system=-P\Delta V  {Work is done on the system is positive as the final volume is lesser than initial volume}

w = 4.51 kcal = 4.51\times 4.184kJ=18.9kJ    (1kcal = 4.184kJ)

q = +1.79 kJ   {Heat absorbed by the system is positive}

\Delta E=+1.79+(18.9)=20.7kJ

Thus \Delta E for a system that receives 1.79 kJ of heat from surroundings and has 4.51 kcal of work done on it at the same time is 20.7 kJ

How can trace fossils provide info on how the organism lived
iragen [17]
Fossils provide a window in Earth's history by showing us how they existed in the past. They can be dated through several ways and can show us how animals and plants have evolved over millions of years. Also, fossils can help us better understand ancient disasters by the inclusion of elements (such as <span>volcanic ash or dust from major space object impacts) and how they affected the life on earth)</span>
