The steel rods will enable the concrete to form without any bumps and it will add shape to the cement and strength, so no odd massive lumps are formed.

That is what I think anyways :)

Potassium hydroxide is classified as an arrhenius base because koh contains
mixas84 [53]

Answer: hydroxide ions

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion  and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion .

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

As KOH can give hydroxide ions on dissociation , it is considered as arrhenius base.

KOH\rightarrow K^++OH^-

Identifying Characteristics of Atoms
Anon25 [30]

Explanation:

The number of protons in an atom is the atomic number.

Mass number is the number of protons plus neutrons in an atom.

  Mass number  = number of protons + number of neutrons

Atomic number  = number of protons

Atomic number gives the symbol of the element

Number        Number      Atomic      Mass          Symbol

 Protons       neutrons     Number    Number

     A                    7                 B              15                C

     D                   E                 26             56               F

A, number of protons  = B

 Mass number  = protons + neutrons

          15  = protons + 7

          Protons  = 15 - 7  = 8

Atomic number 8 is for oxygen = C

Atomic number  = number of protons  = D = 26

Number of neutrons ;

          E =    Neutrons  = mass number - protons  = 56  - 26  = 30

Atomic number 26 is for Iron = F

❖ In order to keep the bench from conducting heat, Shane could build it out of wood. Wood doesn't conduct heat so this would work best for Shane.

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

<em>Hydrogen.</em>

Explanation:

You've probably seen "H_{2}0" which is the formula for water. It means that there's 2 hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom, in one molecule of water.

A mole of oxygen and a mole of hydrogen (at STP) have all of the following in common EXCEPT
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Root mean squared velocity is different.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we have a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at STP, which is defined as a condition whereas T = 298 K and P = 1 atm, we can infer that these gases have the same temperature, pressure, volume and moles but a different root mean squared velocity according to the following formula:

v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{MM} }

Since they both have a different molar mass (MM), nitrogen (28.02 g/mol) and oxygen (32.02 g/mol), thus we infer that nitrogen would have a higher root mean squared velocity as its molar mass is less than that of oxygen.

Best regards!
