Answer:

<u>Polymerization process(Addition)</u>

Explanation:

<u>Polymerization </u>: The process in which small units called monomers combine to produce large mass compound is called polymerization reaction.These large masses are also called macromolecules.

The formation of polymers can occur by addition or condensation process .

<u><em>Addition</em></u> : In addition reaction small units add to previous units

<em><u>Condensation</u></em> : In condensation , a small molecule like water , carbon dioxide get eliminated when the unit attach to previous unit.

Some natural polymers are Proteins , carbohydrates , lipids , cellulose.

Polythene = addition polymerisation also known as Chain growth polymerisation.

nCH_{2}=CH_{2}\rightarrow (-CH_{2}CH_{2}-)_{n}

This occur in three steps:

1. Chain Initiation : The start of the reaction occurs with the radical. These are generated from some organic peroxide and have general representation:

R^{.}

2 . Chain Growth = When the small units goes on adding to the previous units , Chain length increases and this is called chain growth.

3. Chain Termination = The chain continues to grow more and more until not forced to stop. This termination of chain growth is called chain termination

Answer:

Grinding or breaking an Alka-Seltzer tablet increases the number of particles and increases the surface area. Material which was within the tablet is exposed, allowing for more collisions between reactant particles and resulting in an increased rate of reaction.

Here is Beck's address:
777dan777 [17]

Hi! My answer would be D, USA.


Explanation:


We are provided with 5 pieces of an address. They are as followed.

12 Riverdale Lane, Apartment A, San Jose, California, and USA.


Imagine each of the five parts of Beck's address represents Earth, the Milky Way, the moon, the solar system, or the universe, based on their sizes. Which of the following parts of Beck's address would represent the solar system?



If we have to plug in Earth, the Milky Way, the moon, the solar system, and the universe, (all based on size,) we would first start with what "Apartment A" would be in this scenario. Apartment A is the smallest piece we have to work with, and so is the moon. This leads me to believe that the Moon should be plugged into Apartment A. Now, 12 Riverdale Lane is most likely going to be the Earth, since it is the second smallest one on our list. San Jose would turn into the Sun, California represents the Milky Way, and USA represents the solar system.


I sincerely hope I helped!


Have a wonderful day :)

Why is it good practice to perform a mixed melting point determination at two different ratios of unknown to known materials in
My name is Ann [436]

The melting point of a particular compound is fixed and it is an important identification of an unknown compound. The practice to determine the melting point of an unknown material In different ratio with a known material is important to get the exact melting point of the unknown material. In different ratio the melting point of the unknown material will be fixed as the melting point of a pure material doesn't depend on the ratio in which they are mixed with other material. To get the exact melting point it is always good to get the melting point twice in different ratio.
