How can two substances be made up of the same two elements but have very different properties?

Physics
2 answers:
PSYCHO15rus [73]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It is due to their structure

Explanation:

Some molecules have the exact same molecular formula but when you look at them you can see that they are shaped differently,

An example being coal and diamond, both are made of pure carbon but the reason why diamond is so much stronger than coal is because of its lattice structure.

So, basically, it might have different quantities, such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO), which are both made up of Carbon and Oxygen, but Carbon Monoxide has less oxygen. And they both have different properties, like CO is poisonous.

Describe the composition of humus and why it is an effective organic fertilizer
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

soil additive

Explanation:

Soil Additive

The three main components of humus are fulvic acid, humic acid and humin. The spongy nature of humus helps it to trap and hold water, this particular property also helps to aerate the soil as humus expands and contracts with available water.

List three reasons that rain predictions made by meteorologists are sometimes incorrect. Explain your response.
Agata [3.3K]
1. <span>the low pressure is moving slower than expected.
This make the meteorologist receive premature data which make them fail to interpret the data correctly and make the wronf prediction.
2. Sudden change in wind direction, which transfer the natural occurence into other region than where it initially predicted
3. We still haven't developed the methodology to 100% predict natural occurence</span>

An atom of arsenic has how many electron-containing orbitals
irina [24]

Answer:

The Arsenic has three electron-containing orbitals. The orbitals s, p and d.

Explanation:

Arsenic is an element with an atomic number equal of 33, it means that it has 33 electrons in its orbitals in the following way:

1s^{2}

2s^{2}

2p^{6}

3s^{2}

3p^{6}

3d^{10}

4s^{2}

4p^{3}

Therefore, the Arsenic has three electron-containing orbitals (s, p d).

A 5.00-m-long uniform ladder, weighing 200 N, rests against a smooth vertical wall with its base on a horizontal rough floor, a
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

0.488  m  

Explanation:

If θ be the angle ladder makes with the plane

cos θ = 1.2 / 5

Tan θ = 4.04

Let the height a person of weight 600 N  can climb be h from the ground .

Distance from the base point  where ladder touches the floor  = h / tanθ

= h / 4.04

Total reaction force = total downward force

R = 200 + 600

800 N

Frictional force = μ R

= .2 x 800

= 160 N

Taking moment of force about the point on the ladder  where it  touches the floor  and balancing them

200 x 1.2 x .5 + 600 x   h / tanθ  = μ R x  1.2 / tanθ ( reaction  at the top point of ladder where it touches the wall is  R₁ and

R₁ =μ R   )

= 200 x 1.2 x .5 + 600 x   h / tanθ  = 160 x 1.2 / tanθ

120  - 600 h / 4.04 = 47.52

120 - 47.52 = 600 h / 4.04

72.48= 148.51 h

h = 0.488  m
