How do social forces shape technology

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pie3 years ago
8 0
Social forces shape technology both in the form of deliberate social activism and also in unconscious ways. For example, in social activism, large demonstrations against oil pipelines can lead to more rapid development of alternatives to fossil fuels. Somewhat unconsciously, the clogging of cars in tight downtown areas in cities and decreasing parking space gave an impetus to develop new forms of rapid transit like subways and electric articulated buses.

Synthesis reaction always release energy in form of light and heat, therefore, they are usually exothermic reactions. In the option given in A, nitrogen and nitrogen combine together to form ammonia; this  is a synthesis reaction.
2. D
A radioactive half life refers to the amount of time it will take for half of an original radioactive isotope to decay. 
In the question given above, the half life of the element is 1000. Thus, in 1000 years only half of the original amount will remain. In another 1000 years only 1/4 of the original amount will remain and in another 1000 years only 1/8 of the original amount will remain. Therefore, it will take 3 half lives before 1/8 of the original sample remain.<span />

torisob [31]

Answer:Base A is the weakest conductor electricity

Explanation:

Dissociation is a factor that affects electrical conductivity. The greater the percentage of dissociation for bases the stronger the conductivity of electricity.

Given that

Base A dissociates 25% in water

Base B dissociates 50%.

Base C dissociates 75%

We can conclude that  Base A is the weakest conductor oelectricity since it has the lowest percentage of dissociation.

How would you test a colorless crystalline compound to determine if it was a hydrate?
Cloud [144]

A hydrate is a substance where in it contains water and other constituent elements. To know whether if that compound was a hydrate,you should record its mass, then put it in a test tube and heat it with a Bunsen burner. If the compound is a hydrate, the water in the compound will discharge in the form of water vapor. At the next 5-10 minutes, remove it in the test tube and weigh it up again. If the mass is now fewer, that means that there was water existing that has now evaporated, and the compound was a hydrate.
