Sati [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer: C. Metals tend to easily lose their valence electrons.

Explanation:

Metals are those substances which have tendency to loose their valence electrons to attain noble gas configuration and forms positive ions called as cations.

Example: Gold, potassium etc

M\rightarrow M^++e^-

Non metals are those substances which have tendency to gain valence electrons to attain noble gas configuration and form negative ions called as anions.

Example: Sulphur, Chlorine

N+e^-\rightarrow N^-

Does anyone have any information about "trititanium pentoxide" or "titanium oxide"? ​

Answer:

Commonly available heat-storage materials cannot usually store the energy for a prolonged period. If a solid material could conserve the accumulated thermal energy, then its heat-storage application potential is considerably widened. Here we report a phase transition material that can conserve the latent heat energy in a wide temperature range, T<530 K and release the heat energy on the application of pressure. This material is stripe-type lambda-trititanium pentoxide, λ-Ti3O5, which exhibits a solid–solid phase transition to beta-trititanium pentoxide, β-Ti3O5. The pressure for conversion is extremely small, only 600 bar (60 MPa) at ambient temperature, and the accumulated heat energy is surprisingly large (230 kJ L−1). Conversely, the pressure-produced beta-trititanium pentoxide transforms to lambda-trititanium pentoxide by heat, light or electric current. That is, the present system exhibits pressure-and-heat, pressure-and-light and pressure-and-current reversible phase transitions. The material may be useful for heat storage, as well as in sensor and switching memory device applications.

Explain why space junk is a hazard to an astronats or spacecraft
Pie

Answer:

Space junk is travelling so fast that a collision with an astronaut or a spacecraft could be disastrous.

Explanation:

Space junk orbits the Earth at speeds of about 28 000 km/h.  

That's so fast that even an orbiting fleck of paint has enough kinetic energy to cause impact craters on the surface of a spacecraft. They are even more dangerous to an astronaut on a space walk.

Much of the space debris is larger and more dangerous than a fleck of paint.

One rough estimate of the amount of space debris is

<em>       </em><u>Size</u><em>        </em>        <u>Number of objects</u>

< 1 cm                        200 000 000

1 cm to 10 cm                   700 000

> 10 cm                                 30 000

Satellites, etc.                       18 000

The chances of collision are small, but any collision can be disastrous.

23. Enzyme A, as the temperature increases, the rate of reaction goes down. However, Enzyme B as the temperature goes up the reaction goes up.

24. Enzyme B is more active in a human cell, the reaction is what you want and everytime the temperature goes up in enzyme B the reaction goes up.

How much energy in joules is released when 18.5 grams of copper cools from 285 °C<br> down to 45 °C
nadya68 [22]

Answer: 1709.4 Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released on cooling a heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since Q = ?

M = 18.5 grams

Recall that the specific heat capacity of copper C = 0.385 J/g.C

Φ = 285°C - 45°C = 240°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 18.5grams x 0.385 J/g.C x 240°C

Q = 1709.4 Joules

Thus, 1709.4 Joules is released when copper is cooled.
