<span>Silver is usually alloyed with copper to increase the hardness and strength of sterling silver. Pure silver is relatively soft and prone to tarnishing so other metals like those that copper is used to reduce tarnishing and act as a solute in sterling silver. Copper is usually soluble in most solvents.</span>

The components of the substance is the solute and the solvent. The one that exists in a larger amount is most referred to as the solvent and the one that is in smaller amount is the solute. Comparing the amounts of the substances, the solute would be the copper.

A. draw the structure of the tetrahedral intermediate initially formed in the reaction shown. you do not have to consider stereo
julsineya [31]
The reaction is shown below, Acid protonates the carbonyl oxygen and makes the carbonyl carbon more electrophilic. Water attacks on activated carbonyl group and forms a tetrahedral intermediate.

Intermediate:
                    Structure of Intermediate is shown both in 2-D and 3-D (below attached). 

Carbonyl group is regenerated with the elimination of ethanol.

Reaction is as below, The final product is carboxylic acid.

A houseplant is placed on a window sill that gets direct, bright sunlight
Molodets [167]

Answer:

D. Phototropism

Explanation:

Plants, like every other living organism, responds to external stimulus. In this question, the stimulus is LIGHT from the sun entering through the window sill. The plant is responding positively to the light stimuli by growing towards the direction where the light is coming from. This exhibit is called PHOTOTROPISM.

Phototropism, comes from two words viz photo- meaning light and tropism- meaning movement. Hence, phototropism is the growth of an organism (plant in this case) in response to a light stimulus. The case described in this question is POSITIVE PHOTOTROPISM because the growth occurs towards the light source.

Boyle's law states that gas volume is Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to temperature. directly prop
ankoles [38]

<u>Answer:</u> Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to pressure.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Boyle's law is one of the law used to determine the Ideal Gas equation.

This law states that pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles

Mathematically,

P\propto \frac{1}{V}          (at constant temperature and number of moles)

The above expression can also be written as:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are initial pressure and volume of the gas

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are final pressure and volume of the gas

Hence, Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to pressure.
