Answer: Either A or D
Geologists and paleontologists constructed the geologic table based on the relative positions of different strata and fossils, and estimated the time scales based on studying rates of various kinds of weathering, erosion, sedimentation, and lithification.
There are types of lens; concave and convex lens.
The concave lens is a lens which has an inward curve in the middle, that is, the edges of the curve are thicker than the center of the lens, because of this, any light that enter the lens will spread out [diverge]. An image will look smaller and upright when viewed by a concave lens. Image formed by concave lens are usually VIRTUAL.
A concave lens will produce a real image ONLY if the object is located beyond the focal point of the lens.
A convex lens is a converging lens, this is because, the center of the lens is thicker than its edges. Any ray of light that passes through the lens will converge at the middle of the lens at point called principal focus. A convex lens produce a VIRTUAL image when the object is placed infront of the focal point. The virtual image formed is always magnified and upright.<span />
Answer: The volume of the oxygen gas at a pressure of 2.50 atm will be 1.44 L
At constant temperature, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure it exerts, then
PV = c
Thus, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, and if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.
It is not necessary to know the exact value of the constant c to be able to use this law since for a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature, it is satisfied that,
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Where P₁ and P₂ as well as V₁ and V₂ correspond to pressures and volumes for two different states of the gas in question.
In this case the first oxygen gas state corresponds to P₁ = 1.00 atm and V₁ = 3.60 L while the second state would be P₂ = 2.50 atm and V₂ = y. Substituting in the previous equation,
1.00 atm x 3.60 L = 2.50 atm x y
We cleared y to find V₂,
V₂ = y =
= 1.44 L
Then, <u>the volume of the oxygen gas at a pressure of 2.50 atm will be 1.44 L</u>
Answer:
(1) addition of HBr to 2-methyl-2-pentene
Explanation:
In this case, we will have the formation of a <u>carbocation</u> for each molecule. For molecule 1 we will have a <u>tertiary carbocation</u> and for molecule 2 we will have a <u>secondary carbocation</u>.
Therefore the <u>most stable carbocation</u> is the one produced by the 2-methyl-2-pentene. So, this molecule would react faster than 4-methyl-1-pentene. (See figure)
Answer:
Scientific theories are testable and make falsifiable predictions. They describe the causes of a particular natural phenomenon and are used to explain and predict aspects of the physical universe or specific areas of inquiry (for example, electricity, chemistry, and astronomy).
A good theory in the theoretical sense is (1) consistent with empirical observations; is (2) precise, (3) parsimonious, (4) explanatorily broad, and (5) falsifiable; and (6) promotes scientific progress (among others; Table 1.1).
