Answer:

The correct answer is "Its rate will be slower than when it is closer to the Sun".

Explanation:

The Earth passes through its furthest point from the Sun in its orbit, which is known as aphelion. According to Kepler's second law, the greater the distance, the lower the orbital velocity of translation. This happens because in its displacement around the Sun, the Earth does not have a perfect circular trajectory but an elliptical one. Kepler stated that the line connecting the planets and the Sun covers the same area in the same amount of time, so that when the planets are close to the Sun in its orbit, they move faster than when they are farther away.

Have a nice day!

If the earth's orbit is far from the sun, then, its rate will be slower than when it is closer to the Sun. When gravitational field lines get closer together, the magnetic force is strong. We know that the heavier the body is, the stronger its gravitational pull.

the atom was thought to be indivisible. Explain the significance of Thomson's concept of the electron.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Thomson's experiments with cathode ray tubes showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons. Thomson's plum pudding model of the atom had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup.

The dessert can be harsh environment with extreme heat during the day and cold during the night also there is very little rainfa

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The desert refers to a region of arid land which is characterized by extreme temperatures, extreme dryness, low amount of precipitation and generally harsh living conditions. Because of these harsh conditions, they have been tagged with various names ranging from 'Death Valley' to 'the place from where there is no return' etc.

Every desert is made up of 2 components: the biotic (living) component and the abiotic (non-living) component. The biotic (living) component consists of the plants and animals that have adapted to these harsh living conditions e.g. Cactus or Cacti, Holly plants, Camels, Lizards, Snakes etc. The abiotic (non-living) component consists of climate (subtropical deserts which are extremely cold or temperate deserts which are extremely hot), location, precipitation/rainfall

Calculate the pH of a buffer solution prepared by mixing 60.0 mL of 1.00 M lactic acid and 25.0 mL of 1.00 M sodium lactate.

marshall27 [118]

This problem could be solved easily using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation used for preparing buffer solutions. The equation is written below:

pH = pKa + log[(salt/acid]

Where salt represents the molarity of salt (sodium lactate), while acid is the molarity of acid (lactic acid).

Moles of salt = 1 mol/L * 25 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.025 moles salt
Moles of acid = 1 mol/L* 60 mL * 1 L/1000 mL = 0.06 moles acid
Total Volume = (25 mL + 60 mL)*(1 L/1000 mL) = 0.085 L

Molarity of salt = 0.025 mol/0.085 L = 0.29412 M
Molarity of acid = 0.06 mol/0.085 L = 0.70588 M

Thus,
pH = 3.86 + log(0.29412/0.70588)
pH = 3.48

Osmosis and diffusion are related processes that display similarities. Both osmosis and diffusion equalize the concentration of two solutions. Both diffusion and osmosis are passive transport processes, which means they do not require any input of extra energy to occur. In both diffusion and osmosis, particles move from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration. Osmosis and facilitated diffusion both account for movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
