A catalyst<span> is a chemical that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being changed by the reaction. The fact that they aren't changed by participating in a reaction distinguishes </span>catalysts<span> from substrates, which are the reactants on which </span>catalysts<span> work. </span>Enzymes<span> catalyze biochemical reactions.</span>

In the wintertime, you decide to buy a helium balloon at Dollar Tree. It is fully
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The reason that the balloon shrinks is because when the temperature drops, helium becomes more dense then it already is. So what happens is that its molecules lose energy, slows down and moves closer together to conserve heat and this decreases the volume inside the balloon because the helium molecules are moving closer together, rather than outward toward the shell of the balloon which cause the balloon to swell then shrink. The gas law that causes this to happen is the Charles law.

How would you separate a mixture of water, sand, salt and iron filings into its four component parts
kipiarov [429]
Magnet to remove the iron, filter paper (or some filter that could trap sand) to remove the sand, and heat up the salt and water, causing the water to evaporate to separate them.

In an exothermic reaction, energy is blank the surroundings.
S_A_V [24]

Answer: released to; absorbed from

- In an exothermic reaction, energy is released to the surroundings.

- In an endothermic reaction, energy is absorbed from the surroundings.

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs spontaneously and brings about the release of energy to the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels hot as the reaction proceeds.

An endothermic reaction, on the other hand, does not occur spontaneously and proceed only when energy is absorbed from the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels cold as the reaction proceeds.

Elements in the same column of the periodic table have what in common?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Elements in same column of periodic table have same properties.

Explanation:

The elements in the same group have same number of valance electrons thus have similar properties.

Consider the elements of group two i.e alkaline earth metals. All have two valance electrons and show similar properties.

Magnesium, barium, calcium etc.

All alkaline earth metals form salt with halogens.e.g,

Mg   +   Cl₂    →    MgCl₂

Ba    +   Br₂    →     BaBr₂

Mg   +   Br₂    →     MgBr₂

Ca    +   Br₂    →     CaBr₂

They react with oxygen and form oxides of respective metal.

2Mg   +   O₂   →    2MgO

2Ba   +   O₂   →    2BaO

2Ca   +   O₂   →    2CaO

these oxides form hydroxide when react with water,

MgO  + H₂O   →  Mg(OH)₂

BaO  + H₂O   →  Ba(OH)₂

CaO  + H₂O   →  Ca(OH)₂

With nitrogen it produced nitride,

3Mg + N₂     →  Mg₃N₂

3Ba + N₂     →  Ba₃N₂

3Ca + N₂     →  Ca₃N₂

With acid like HCl,

Mg + 2HCl  →  MgCl₂ + H₂

Ba + 2HCl  →  BaCl₂ + H₂

Ca + 2HCl  →  CaCl₂ + H₂

why would you expect to see similar rocks and rock structures on two land masses that were connected at one time?
tangare [24]
If they were connected at one time than you would expect to find similar rock structures because they eroded, weathered, and we’re formed most likely at the same time out of the same material. So basically since they were near each other they were under the same or similar conditions.
