Answer:
A
Explanation:
Hydrocarbons with short chain lengths are more volatile than those with longer chains. A practical example of this can be seen in the first few members of the alkane series. They are mostly gaseous in nature and this is quite a contrast to the next few members which are solid in nature.
As we move down the group, we can see that there is an increase in the number of solids. Hence, as we go down the group we can see a relative increase in order and thus we expect more stability at room temperature compared to the volatility of the shorter chain
Answer:
Sedimentary rocks are the product of 1) weathering of preexisting rocks, 2) transport of the weathering products, 3) deposition of the material, followed by 4) compaction, and 5) cementation of the sediment to form a rock. The latter two steps are called lithification.
Answer:
Explanation:
Homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture are in the same proportion throughout any sample extracted from the mixture while an heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture differ in term of proportion when different samples of the mixture are extracted and compared.
For example, a sandy water will have some parts (usually the bottom) of the mixture with more sand than other parts of the mixture, hence, it (sandy water) is a heterogeneous mixture. While salty and ocean water has it's salt dissolved in the same proportion throughout the water in the mixture, hence salty and/or ocean water is a homogeneous mixture.
Sandy water can be separated by filtration (i.e using a filter paper to separate the sand from the water when the mixture is poured over a filter paper) while salty and ocean water can be separated by distillation (i.e boiling of the mixture so the water molecules can boil and move through a tube as gas or steam into another container where they are cooled and converted back to liquid or water while leaving the solid salt component of the mixture in the boiling tube).
<span>The
kingdom, protista’s characteristics are that the organism (not a plant,
animal or fungus) are:
unicellular however some are multicellular like algae, are heterotrophic or
autotrophic, others lives in water while some live in moist areas or human body,
have a nucleus, cellular respiration is primarily aerobic, some are pathogenic
(e.g. causing Malaria) and reproduction is mitosis or meiosis. This kingdom
includes: Sacordinians – pseudopods (e.g. Amoeba, Foraminiferans<span>.)</span>, Zooflagellates – flagellates
(e.g. Trypanosoma gambiense),
Ciliaphorans – ciliates (e.g. paramecium) and Sporozoans (e.g. Plasmodium).</span>
