I believe it is "The temperature of the ice sheet will be lowered" because it will most likely lower just a bit due to the heat. It's not going to fully melt but it will lower just a bit.
 Plus I like your profile pic.

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When warm air will rise above a polar ice sheet then it means due to high kinetic energy between the warm air molecules they will collide rapidly and frequently from one place to another.

As a result, warm air molecules will expand at a faster rate. As polar ice sheet is colder in nature therefore, it will absorb the heat from warm air.

Hence, the polar ice sheet will start to melt as absorption of heat will generate kinetic energy between the molecules of polar ice sheet.

Thus, we can conclude that heat will be transferred from the air mass to the ice.

Explain why the product at the negative electrode is not always a metal.
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Whether you get the metal or hydrogen during electrolysis depends on the position of the metal in the reactivity series: the metal will be produced if it is less reactive than hydrogen. hydrogen will be produced if the metal is more reactive than hydrogen.

Anouk does 150 J of work using a hammer to pull a nail out of a piece of wood, and the hammer does 105 J of work on the nail. Wh
astraxan [27]
The efficiency of any machine is given by:

efficiency = output obtained / input given

Substituting the values,
Efficiency = 105 / 150
Efficiency = 0.7

Converting this to a percentage, the efficiency of the hammer is 70%.
This is a fairly high efficiency, and this is due to the fact that the hammer is a simpler machine. The more complex a machine is, the greater are the losses in it due to friction, meaning there is a lower efficiency.

what is the proper name for the following alkyl side group where the main carbon chain is denoted with a squiggly line?
chubhunter [2.5K]

The proper name for the following alkyl side group where the main carbon chain is denoted with a squiggly line is isopropyl.

In natural chemistry, an alkyl substituent is an alkane missing one hydrogen. The term alkyl is intentionally unspecific to include many viable substitutions. An acyclic alkyl has the overall formulation of CₙH₂ₙ₊₁.

An alkyl is a purposeful institution of an organic chemical that includes only carbon and hydrogen atoms, that are organized in a chain. Examples include methyl CH3 (derived from methane) and butyl C2H5 (derived from butane). they may be now not located on their own however are discovered attached to different hydrocarbons.

what is an alkyl group? Alkyl group is shaped through putting off a hydrogen atom from the molecule of alkane. Alkanes are quite regularly represented as R-H and here R stands for alkyl group. the overall method of the alkyl organization is CₙH₂ₙ₊₁. The smallest alkyl organization is CH3 referred to as methyl.
