Fission is a term that means when a large atom breaks into smaller atoms. It’s counterpart, Fusion, is the opposite, where small atoms fuse into larger atoms.

No, physics does not suggest an exact pace in which a chemical compound will travel. It will matter in external forces as well as the median it is travelling through.

What are chylomicrons? a. Alcohols with three-carbon chains b. Nitrogen compounds found in foods and made in the body c. Food ad
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Chylomicron is a small fat globule which is made of protein and lipids. These substances are found in the lymphatic fluid and blood where they tend to transport fat from the entry in the intestine to the liver and adipose tissue.

Once, one eats the fatty meal the blood is full of a number of chylomicrons which provides the blood texture.

The food that is digested is absorbed and transported to various parts of the body.

If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, which type of process is it?
ser-zykov [4K]
If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, the process is endothermic.

The process requires heat in order to proceed. If ice stays in a very cold place, it will not melt unless it's heated. If ice is placed outside where it melts on its own, it gets the heat from the surroundings.

Describe the temperature changes that occur in ice as energy is added, starting in the frozen state and ending in the vapor stat
Ket [755]

Explanation:

When water is frozen then it is known as ice and its state is solid. So, its molecules will be held closer to each other as they are held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction.

As a result, its temperature will be minimum as its molecules have least kinetic energy.

It is known that kinetic energy of a substance is directly proportional to temperature.

As,            K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT

where            K.E = kinetic energy

                       T = temperature

                       k = boltzmann constant

When solid changes into liquid state then it means molecules of a substance has gained kinetic energy due to which there occurs more collisions between the molecules.

Hence, temperature of substance also increases.

Whereas when liquid state of a substance changes intro vapor state then it means that more kinetic energy has gained by the molecules due to which there will be much more collisions between the molecules.

Hence, temperature will be maximum in vapor state.
