Surface tension ..viscosity is the thickness of a liquid, doesn't fit here...condensation and evaporation are processes not properties.
Reika [66]4 years ago

Answer : The correct option is, surface tension.

Explanation :

Viscosity : It is defined as the resistance of a liquid to flowing.

Condensation : It is a physical process in which a phase of matter converted from gas phase to liquid phase.

Evaporation : It is a process in which a phases changes from liquid phase to gas phase.

Surface tension : It is defined as a force present within the layer of a liquid that causes the layer act as an elastic sheet.

Therefore, the surface of water can act like a sort of skin due to a property of liquids called surface tension.

An FAS calibration curve (absorbance, y-axis vs. FAS in g/mL) gave an equation he regression line of: y-3678(x)+0.056. If an unk
mezya [45]

Answer:

FAS concentration = 1.61*10^-4M

Explanation:

Beer Lambert's law relates the absorbance (A) of a substance to its concentration (c) as:

A = \epsilon lc----(1)

where ε = molar absorption coefficient

l = path length

A plot of 'A' vs 'c' gives a straight line with slope = εl

In addition absorbance (A) is related to % Transmittance (%T) as:

A = 2-log%T----(2)

For the FAS solution, the corresponding calibration fit is given as:

y = 3678(x) + 0.056

This implies that the slope = εl = 3678

It is given that %T = 25.6%

A = 2-log(25.6)=0.592

Based on equation(1):

c = \frac{A}{\epsilon l}=\frac{0.592}{3678}=1.61*10^{-4}M

Compare rutherford's expected outcome of the gold-foil experiment with the actual outcome.
iragen [17]
Rutherford was one of the early scientists who worked on the atomic model. Before his discovery of the nucleus, the widely accepted theory was J.J Thomson's Plum Pudding Model. In this model, all the protons, electrons and neutrons are in the nucleus. But the electrons are more in number such that the electrons act as the 'pudding' and the proton and nucleus the 'plum'. This was Rutherford's hypothesis in his gold foil experiment. In order to test the Plum Pudding model, he hypothesized that when a beam of light is aimed at the atom, it would not diffract because the charges in the nucleus are well-distributed. However, his experiment disproved Thomson's model. Some light indeed passed through but a few was diffracted back to the source. He concluded that this was because there is a dense mass inside the atom called nucleus. Thus, from there on, he proposed the model that the electrons are orbiting around the nucleus.

In a fuel cell there is direct conversion of mechanical energy into electricity.
rewona [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A fuel cell uses both hydrogen and oxygen as fuels. At the cathode oxygen is reduced to water according to the equation

O2+4H^+ +4e ------>2H2O

And hydrogen is oxidized at the anode:

2H2------>4H^+ +4e

Fuel cells produce only water as a by product hence they are environment friendly
