We refrigerate nourishments to keep microscopic organisms, yeast, and moles from the great temperature they have to develop. the dampness control accessible in numerous fridges likewise eases back the weakening of nourishments, with the goal that two of the three great circumstances for the microorganisms development are wiped out. despite the fact that the microorganism develop is eased back down at low temperatures, it despite everything can happen at the 38 degrees of a customary cooler. thus, the form that develops on overlooked extras in the rear of a fridge.

Which is a common way for a scientific calculator to show the number below? <br> 8.1 102

Elodia [21]

Answer: 8.1e+2 or 8.1E+2 (in the scientific notation mode), based on that the number given is 8.1 × 10².

Explanation

Scientific calculators use the letter e or E to show the numbers in scientific notation mode.

These are some examples of numbers that require scientific notation and how they are shown.

Number                 Scientific calculator display

6.022 × 10²³           6.022 e+23
5 × 10 -12              5 E -12

So, understanding that your question is about number 8.1 × 10², the scientific calculator could show 8e+2.

Nevertheless, since 8 .1 × 10² is 810, not a long number, if the display is not in scientific notation mode, it could just display just 810,

7. Halfway through a cross country meet, a

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

3m/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Initial speed (s1) = 4 m/s

Final speed (S2) = 7m/s

Change in speed (ΔS)

ΔS = s2 — s1

ΔS = 7 — 4

ΔS = 3m/s

Therefore, the change in speed is 3m/s

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 0.456 g H₂O (water)

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

[DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 0.456 \ g \ H_2O(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2O}{18.02 \ g \ H_2O})$
[DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 0.025305 \ mol \ H_2O$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

0.025305 mol H₂O ≈ 0.0253 mol H₂O

Read the selection from the section "Molecules In Motion." The molecules in the hot soup are traveling faster overall than they

Hoochie [10]

Answer: The author used the word "conversely" because the first statement he made is in CONTRAST to the second statement he made.

Explanation:

Matter is made up of atoms or molecules that are in constant motion. The motion of these tiny particles ( molecules) gives the object energy. The movement of these molecules depends on the state of matter which includes

--> GASEOUS STATE: Here, the particles are completely free to move and are always in motion.

--> LIQUID STATE: particles in this state slide by one another and are always in motion.

--> SOLID STATE: particles in this state are held tightly together but are always in motion.

Also, the molecules in motion are greatly affected by temperature changes. Increase in temperature will cause the particles in the liquid to move faster. Such is seen when soup is heated, the molecules travel faster than before. But the OPPOSITE is seen in an ice cube. This is because the ice cube is in solid state and of a lower temperature.
