To separate, filtration would work best. Sand particles and water molecules differ drastically in size. So when filtered, the sand would not flow out of the device as the water would. This will effectively separate the water and sand with the smallest amount of material lost.

Hope this helps :)

Depends, does the teacher just care about the water and sand being separated or does the teacher want you to separate them and still have both substances in their original form. If the teacher just cares about the separation I'd use evaporation. It was still water and sand the only thing is the water changed forms and became a gas. If the teacher wants both substances in their original state then I'd use filtration. You can separate the sand from the water and still have them both.

A car tire has a pressure of 2.38 atm at 15.2 c. If the pressure inside reached 4.08 atm, the tire will explode. How hot would t
stich3 [128]

The correct answer is 221.06 °C hot.  

If P₁ is the pressure at T₁ and P₂ is the pressure at T₂ then,  

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

It is given that P₁ = 2.38 atm

T₁ = 15.2 degree C = 273 + 15.2 = 288.2 K

P₂ = 4.08 atm

T₂ = x

Thus, 2.38 / 288.2 = 4.08 / x  

x = (4.08 × 288.2) / 2.38  

x = 494.06 K

x = 494.06 - 273 °C = 221.06 °C

Therefore, the tire would get 221.06 °C hot.

Covert to scientific notation.
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

19) 3.6920 × 10⁻⁵

20) 4.059× 10²

21) 2.46810121416 × 10³

22)  1.0000× 10⁻³

Explanation:

Scientific notation is the way to express the large value in short form.

The number in scientific notation have two parts.

The digits (decimal point will place after first digit)

× 10 ( the power which put the decimal point where it should be)

For example:

0.000036920

In scientific notation =  3.6920 × 10⁻⁵

405.9

In scientific notation  = 4.059× 10²

2468.10121416

In scientific notation  = 2.46810121416 × 10³

0.0010000

In scientific notation  = 1.0000× 10⁻³

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

HCl.

Explanation:

Of all the type of bond, Ionic bonds are the strongest. Among all the compounds in the options only HCl has ionic bond, rest have covalent bonds. So, the strongest intermolecular forces is in HCl.  Ionic bond are formed with the transfer of electrons, one atom is donor and the other is acceptor.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

1. A

2. C

Explanation:

For the first question, we know that the water transformed into a gas. This fact eliminates choices C and D, primarily because they describe the change as "gas to liquid" instead of liquid to gas.

What separates B from A is that B is saying the liquid changed to a gas in response to sunlight, which is completely false and impertinent to the prompt.

A is the correct answer.

for the second question, we know that condensation causes clouds -- and that neither evaporation nor water vapor would clear clouds to make more of them, which eliminates choices B and D. Going back to condensation, the accumulation of water vapor plays a big role in the formation of clouds. While evaporation does play a part in [it] as well, condensation is what caused the sudden appearance of clouds in the troposphere.

C is the correct answer.
