Answer:

14. 13.2cg = 1.32dg

15. 3.8m = 0.0038km

16. 24.8L = 24800mL

17. 0.87kL = 870L

18. 26.01cm = 0.0002601km

19. 0.001hm = 10cm

Explanation:

14. 13.2/10 = 1.32

15. 38/1000 = 0.0038

16. 24.8(1000) = 24,800

17. 0.87(1000) = 870

18. 26.01/100000 = 0.0002601

19. 0.001hm(10000) = 10

An easy way to do these by yourself is to familiarize yourself with what each prefix means. Once you do this, you can multiply the value of the prefix when converting from a smaller unit of measurement to a larger one and divide the value of the prefix when converting from a large unit of measurement to a smaller one.

The Law of _____states that substances combine in predictable proportions and that excess reactants remain unchanged.
RideAnS [48]

Answer: definite proportions.


Explanation:


1) The definite proportions law states that compounds will always have the same kind of atoms (elements) in the same mass proportion (ratios).


2) For example, a molecule of water will alwys have the same mass ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms. That is what permits to obtain the chemical formula of the water molecule as H₂O.


The mass of the two hydrogen atoms will be in a fixed ratio respect to the mass of the oxygen atoms.


Then, if you have one reactant in less proportion than the other, respect to the ratio stated by the chemical formula of water, the former will react completely (it is the limiting reactant) with the corresponding (proportional) mass of the later. Then there will be an excess of the later reactant which will not react (will remain unchanged).


The reactants can only react in the proportion defined by the chemical formulas of the final products.

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.

Which sub-atomic particle is NOT found at the center of the atom?
Ostrovityanka [42]
All the positive charge of an atom is contained in the nucleus, and originates from the protons. Neutrons are neutrally-charged. Electrons, which are negatively-charged, are located outside of the nucleus.

HELP ASAP! Chemical reactions involving liquids only will be influenced by ALL of the following EXCEPT: a) temperature of the sy
Rom4ik [11]
<span>Chemical reactions involving only liquids will be influenced by ALL of the following EXCEPT: </span><span><span>c) size of reactant particles d) pressure of the system.

</span>Reason:
1) As per Arrhenius theory, rate of chemical reactions is influence by temperature. Mathematically it is expressed as: k = A exp(-Ea/RT)
</span>where, k = rate constant, A = collision frequency, Ea = activation energy, T = temp. From above relation, it can be seen that, chemical reactions involving only liquids will be influenced temperature.

2) Also, if know that, rates of chemical reactions is mathematically expressed as: Rate = [A]^{x} B^{y}....,
where A, B, .. are the reactants.
From above relation, it can be seen that, chemical reactions involving only liquids will be influenced concentration i.e. number of particle. 

3) However, since all the reactant and catalyst used (if any) is in liquid state, particle size of same  will not influence the reaction.

4) Also, since there are no gas-phase reactant, pressure will not affect the reaction.
