Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a solid, molecules are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they are unable to move from their initial place but they can vibrate at their mean position.

Hence, in solid substances the molecules have low kinetic energy.

Whereas in liquids, the molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. Due to which they are able to slide past each other. Hence, they have medium kinetic energy.
In gases, the molecules are held by weak Vander waal forces. Hence, they have high kinetic energy due to which they move rapidly from one place to another leading to more number of collisions.

Hence, gases are able to expand more rapidly as compared to liquids.

In plasma state, there is hot ionized gas which contains positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.

In plasma state, molecules move much more rapidly than molecules of a gas.

Thus, we can conclude that solid state of matter has least amount of kinetic energy.

When you break an iron magnet into two pieces, you get ____.

Rudiy27

Answer:

two north poles and two south poles

Explanation:

A single magnet has a north pole and a south pole. If it is broken into two pieces, then each of the two pieces will have a north pole and a south pole.

No matter how many times or into how many pieces a magnet is broken, the resulting pieces will have two poles each.

Molecules have ionization energies, just like atoms do. The ionization energy for molecular oxygen, for example, is 1314 kJ/mol.

taurus [48]

Answer:

91.1835 nm

Explanation:

Given that the ionization energy of the oxygen molecule = 1314 kJ/mol

It means that

1 mole of oxygen molecules can be ionized by the energy = 1314 kJ = 1314000 J

1 mole of molecules contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

So,

6.022 × 10²³ atoms of oxygen molecules can be ionized by the energy = 1314000 J

1 atom require $\frac{1314000}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\ J$ of energy

Energy = $2.18\times 10^{-18}\ J$

Also

$E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}$

Where,

h is Plank's constant having value $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js$

c is the speed of light having value $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

So,

$\lambda=\frac {h\times c}{E}$

$\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{2.18\times 10^{-18}}\ m$

$\lambda=91.1835\times 10^{-9}}\ m$

Also,

$1\ nm=10^{-9}}\ m$

So, wavelength = 91.1835 nm

Can someone please help me with this?--20 pts!

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Compound B is ionic. The electronegativity difference is 2.2, which can be determined by subtracting the electronegativity of Element Y from that of Element Z. Electronegativity differences greater than 1.7 indicate ionic bonds.

Hope that helps.

Will the reaction of addition to an inhibitor be fast or slow?

Answer:hope we can be friends

can i please get brainliest

Although phlorizin inhibition of Na+-glucose cotransport occurs within a few seconds, 3H-phlorizin binding to the sodium-coupled glucose transport protein(s) requires several minutes to reach equilibrium (the fast-acting slow-binding paradigm). Using kinetic models of arbitrary dimension that can be reduced to a two-state diagram according to Cha’s formalism, we show that three basic mechanisms of inhibitor binding can be identified whereby the inhibitor binding step either (A) represents, (B) precedes, or (C) follows the rate-limiting step in a binding reaction. We demonstrate that each of mechanisms A–C is associated with a set of unique kinetic properties, and that the time scale over which one may expect to observe mechanism C is conditioned by the turnover number of the catalytic cycle. In contrast, mechanisms A and B may be relevant to either fast-acting or slow-binding inhibitors.
