Which of the following types of rocks could contain organic matter

Water is a compound because it is what?Water is a compound because it

seraphim [82]

Water is a compound because it always has two hydrogen atoms for each oxygen atom. Water can be broken down into simpler substances. Water is a compound because pure water is composed of only H₂O molecules. Each molecule of water is a chemical combination of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Water is a type of molecular compound.

$\boxed{~The~Answer~is~B.~}$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Compounds are substances composed of two or more different elements chemically combined that can be separated into simpler substances only by chemical reactions.
Water, for example, is a compound because pure water is composed of only H₂O molecules. Each molecule of water is a chemical combination of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
A molecular bond or covalent bond occurs as a result of electrons can be shared between atoms. Molecular compounds have molecular (covalent) bonds.
An ionic bond occurs as a result of electrons can be completely removed from one atom and given to another. Ionic compounds have ionic bonds.
Examples of other molecular compounds are carbon dioxide (CO₂) and glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆). Each molecule of CO₂ is a chemical combination of two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom. Each molecule of C₆H₁₂O₆ is a chemical combination of six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms.
Table salt (NaCl) is a compound because it is made from more than one kind of element (Na and Cl), but it is not a molecule because the bond that holds NaCl together is an ionic bond. An electron from the outer shell of sodium is released and taken by chlorine to reach octet conditions on both sides, that is how ionic bonds occur. Thus NaCl is an ionic compound.
A diatomic molecule is a molecule made from two atoms of the same type. For example, oxygen gas in the atmosphere is a molecule because it contains molecular bonds. It is not a compound because it is made from atoms of only one element, i.e. oxygen. Another example is hydrogen gas, nitrogen gas, and chlorine gas.
Elements are the simplest forms of matter and therefore cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any chemical or physical reactions. Some examples of elements include hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, sodium, iron, and sulfur. Elements can combine with other elements to synthesize compounds.

Why do we call the microscope a compound light microscope

Ede4ka [16]

Explanation:

Types of light microscope

1. Compound , and 2. Stereo Microscope

Compound microscope has two lens system also called compound lens system. The objective lens and the eyepiece lens. The magnification provided by the objective lens is compounded by the eyepiece lens, the a higher magnification is observed.

Given the vector A with components Ax = 2.00, Ay = 6.00, the vector B with components Bx = 2.00, By = 22.00, and the vector D =

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°</em>

Explanation:

<u>Operations With Vectors</u>

Given two vectors in rectangular components:

$\vec a=(ax,ay)\ ,\ \vec b=(bx,by)$

The sum of the vectors is:

$\vec a+\vec b=(ax+bx,ay+by)$

The difference between the vectors is:

$\vec a-\vec b=(ax-bx,ay-by)$

The magnitude of $\vec a$ is:

$|\vec a|=\sqrt{ax^2+ay^2}$

The angle $\vec a$ makes with the horizontal positive direction is:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{ay}{ax}\\$

The question provides the vectors:

$\vec a=(2,6)$

$\vec b=(2,22)$

$\vec d=\vec a-\vec b$

Calculate:

$\vec d=(2,6)-(2,22)=(0,-16)$

The magnitude of $\vec d$ is:

$|\vec d|=\sqrt{0^2+(-16)^2}=\sqrt{0+256}=16$

The angle is calculated by:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{-16}{0}$

The division cannot be calculated because the denominator is zero. We need to estimate the correct angle by looking at the components of the vector. Since the x-coordinate is zero and the y-coordinate is negative, the vector points downwards (south), thus the angle must be -90° or 270° if the range goes from 0° to 360°.

The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°

The velocity of sound on a particular day outside is 331 meters/second. What is the frequency of a tone if it has a wavelength o

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:
frequency = 5.52 * 10² Hz

Explanation:
the equation that relates velocity, frequency and wavelength is:
velocity = frequency * wavelength

We are given that:
velocity = 331 m/sec
wavelength = 0.6 m

Substitute with the givens in the equation to get the frequency as follows:
velocity = frequency * wavelength
331 = frequency * 0.6
frequency = 331 / 0.6
frequency = 5.52 * 10² Hz

Hope this helps :)
