<h3><u>Answer and explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Melting point</u> is defined as the temperature at which solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium. It is the temperature at which a solid changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.
  • <u>Boiling poin</u>t is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure. It is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid into a gas.
  • <u>The flash point </u>of a flammable liquid or volatile liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture in air. At this temperature the vapor may cease to burn when the source of ignition is removed.

Flashpoint mainly applies to volatile substances. It describes the lowest temperatures at which the vapors of the substance can ignite with the slightest spark. The melting point is the temperatures at which a substance changes phase from solid to liquid while the boiling point is the temperatures where a substance changes phase from liquid to gas.

Arrange the following substances in order of decreasing magnitude of lattice energy.
kolbaska11 [484]
The formula is F = ( q1 * q2 ) / r ^ 2 
<span>where: q is the individual charges of each ion </span>
<span>r is the distance between the nuclei </span>
<span>The formula is not important but to explain the relationship between the atoms in the compounds and their lattice energy. </span>

<span>From the formula we can first conclude that compounds of ions with greater charges will have a greater lattice energy. This is a direct relationship. </span>
<span>For example, the compounds BaO and SrO, whose ions' charges are ( + 2 ) and ( - 2 ) respectively for each, will have greater lattice energies that the compounds NaF and KCl, whose ions' charges are ( + 1 ) and ( - 1 ) respectively for each. </span>

<span>So Far: ( BaO and SrO ) > ( NaF and KCl ) </span>

<span>The second part required you find the relative distance between the atoms of the compounds. Really, the lattice energy is stronger with smaller atoms, an indirect relationship. </span>
<span>For example, in NaF the ions are smaller than the ions in KCl so it has a greater lattice energy. Because Sr is smaller than Ba, SrO has a greater lattice energy than BaO. </span>

<span>Therefore: </span>
<span>Answer: SrO > BaO > NaF > KCl </span>

Which of the following remains constant during the motion of a projectile fired from a planet?
trapecia [35]

Answer:

C. Horizontal component of velocity

Explanation:

Object in motion stays in motion,

nothing works against its motion in the horizontal direction, unlike in the vertical direction, gravity pulls object down.

A child\'s top is held in place, upright on a frictionless surface. The axle has a radius of r = 2.96 mm. Two strings are wrappe
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

radius r=2.96 mm

Tension T=2.4 N

time taken=0.74 s

Let \alphabe the angular acceleration

2 T\times r=I\times \alpha

2\times 2.4\times 2.96\times 10^{-3}=0.5\times m\times (2.96\times 10^{-3})^2\times \alpha

\alpha =\frac{4\times 2.4}{m\times 2.96\times 10^{-3}}

\alpha =\frac{3.24\times 10^3}{m} rad/s^2

\omega =\omega _0+\alpha \cdot t

\omega =0+\frac{3.24\times 10^3}{m}\times 0.74

\omega =\frac{2.4\times 10^3}{m} rad/s

Angular momentum

L=I\omega

L=0.5\times mr^2\times \omega

L=0.5\times m\times (2.96\times 10^{-3})^2\times \frac{2.4\times 10^3}{m}

L=0.01051 kg-m^2/s
