The branched structure isomer will require less energy to melt than the straight chain isomer
explanation
Branched structure isomer has weak intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to straight chain isomers. In addition the branched isomer has a low boiling point as compared to straight chain isomers. Since boiling require the of the intermolecular forces tend to have lower boiling point than straight chain
C and D
surface water is evaporated by the sun and concentrated the ocean salt and oceans are diluted when rivers flow into them
Mineral resources are solid, crystalline substances made inside the Earth. These include granite, marble, limestone and precious stones which are used for jewellery. Minerals are used to make all sorts of different things which we use every day. Energy resources are things we can use to turn into electrical power.
The mass of magnesium should be less than 0.09g to enable a faster reaction rate. Magnesium reacts to form a white coating around it which stops the reaction. The lesser the gram the faster the reaction before the coating is formed. It is also advisable to use magnesium fillings to increase the rate of reaction.
