Picking up a paper clip with a magnet. Physical change, Chemical change, or neither

Hello there! :D

A physical change is a change in which something is changed in appearance. For example, if I cut a piece of paper in half.

A chemical change is when the composition (or the makeup) of something is changed. For example, baking soda and vinegar. They react to form a whole different thing.

Picking up a paper clip with a magnet doesn't change its appearance. It doesn't change its composition. The magnet only picks up the paper clip because it attracts magnetic objects, if you were to take it off of the paper clip it would still be the same paper clip, and most likely look the same.

I hope this helps!

A bicyclist travels the first 800 m of a trip with a speed of 10 m/s, the next 500 m with an

bezimeni [28]

Answer:9.18 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed for the entire trip is found ......total distance/total time. Remember r*t=d, so divide both sides by t and get r = d/t.

So the cyclist went 800+500+1200 m = 2500 m for total distance.

10t =800 leads to t=80 sec

5t=500 leads to t=100 sec

13t = 1200 leads to t = 92.3 sec

total time is 272.3 sec

Average speed for the entire trip is 2500 / 272.3 = 9.18 m/s

Why is a cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane more stable thanits<br> trans isomer?

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Explanation has been given below

Explanation:

In diaxial conformation of cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane, 4 gauche-butane interactions along with syn-diaxial interaction are present. Hence it readily gets converted to diequitorial conformation where no such gauche-butane interaction is present
In two possible conformations of trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane, 2 gauche-butane interactions are present in each of them.
Hence cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane exists almost exclusively in diequitorial form. But trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane has no such option.

Trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane experiences gauche butane interaction in each of the two conformations.
Therefore cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane is more stable than trans conformation
