Answer: The correct answer is "greater thermal conductivity".

Explanation:

Thermal conductivity: It is a ability to conduct heat. Heat transfers occur at a lower rate to material at higher thermal conductivity.

It is defined as the rate at which the heat is transferred through a unit thickness of the substance per area per change in the temperature.

In the given problem, A piece of wood and a piece of steel are at the same temperature. However, the steel feels hotter. The thermal conductivity of the steel is more than the thermal conductivity of the wood.

Therefore,  the correct option is "greater thermal conductivity".

Convert 1.248×1010 g to each of the following units.
Leona [35]

Answer:

a) 1.248 x 10⁷ kg

b) 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg

c) 1.248 x 10¹³ mg

d) 1.248 x 10⁴ ton

Explanation:

a) Since 1000 g = 1 kg we can convert grams to kg by multiplyig any given quantity in grams by the conversion factor ( 1 kg / 1000 g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * (1 kg / 1000 g) = 1.248 x 10⁷ kg

b) Since 1 Mg = 1 x 10⁶ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * (  1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g) = 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg

c) Since 1 mg = 1 x 10⁻³ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g) = 1.248 x 10¹³ mg

d) Since 1 metric ton = 1000 kg and 1000 g = 1 kg, we can use these conversions factors: ( 1 kg / 1000 g) and (1 ton / 1000 kg):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * ( 1 kg / 1000 g) * ( 1 ton / 1000 kg) = 1.248 x 10⁴ ton

A sample of pure calcium fluoride with a mass of 15.0 g contains 7.70 g of calcium. how much calcium is contained in 45.0 g of c
kolbaska11 [484]

In a sample of pure calcium fluoride of mass 15.0 g, 7.70 g of calcium is present. First convert the mass into number of moles as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.

Molar mass of Ca is 40 g/mol, putting the values,

n=\frac{7.70 g}{40 g/mol}=0.1925 mol

Similarly, molar mass of CaF_{2} is 78.07 g/mol thus, number of moles will be:

n=\frac{15.0 g}{78.07 g/mol}=0.1921 mol.

Thus, 0.1921 mol of CaF_{2} have 0.1925 mol of Ca, or 1 mole of CaF_{2} will have approximately 1 mole of Ca.

Now, mass of Ca needs to be calculated in 45.0 g of CaF_{2}. Converting mass into number of moles first,

n=\frac{45.0 g}{78.07 g/mol}=0.5764 mol

Thus, number of moles of Ca will also be 0.5764 mol, converting number of moles into mass,

m=n\times M=0.5764 mol\times 40 g/mol=23.06 g

Therefore, mass of Ca will be 23.06 g.

What are the differences between thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics? Give examples and draw a simple diagram to show what
Olenka [21]

<u><em>on the basis of the reaction of heat in plastic , their are two types of plastics : </em></u>

<h2><u><em>Thermoplastic & Thermosetting plastics </em></u></h2>

<u><em>Thermoplastics : Plastics which easily get deformed (become soft )on heating and also get bend easily are known as thermoplastics . </em></u>

<u><em>examples :  polythene , polyvinyl  chloride and polystyrene .</em></u>

<u><em>thermosetting plastics : plastics which once moulded into a shape do not become soft on heating and cannot be moulded again are called thermosetting plastics .</em></u>

<u><em>examples : bakelite , melamine and formica</em></u>
