When fat comes in contact with sodium hydroxide, it produces soap and glycerin. Determine whether this is a physical change or a

chemical change. Explain your answer.

A quick, easy way to decide whether there was a chemical change

is to look and see whether there are NEW substances after the

event, that weren't there when it started.


This particular scenario started out with fat and sodium hydroxide (lye).

And then, suddenly, POOF ! Soap and glycerin showed up. Where did

THOSE come from ? They came from the molecules in fat and lye,

getting broken up and recombined to make different substances.

THAT's exactly a chemical change.

Answer:

This is a chemical change because new substances are formed with different properties and identities.

Light of a given wavelength is used to illuminate the surfacce of a metal, however, no photoelectrons are emitted. In order to c
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

B. use light of a shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

We know that

E= \frac{hc}{\lambda}

h= plank's constant

c= speed of light

λ= wavelength of the incident light

so, in order to have sufficient energy for for the emission of electron, the incident's radiation must have λ small enough.

B. use light of a shorter wavelength.

What is the only possible value of ml for an electron in an s orbital?
Archy [21]

Answer:

  • zero

Explanation:

m_l     is the magnetic quantum number.

The only possible value for the magnetic quantum number for an electron in an s orbital is 0.

The first three quantun numbers are:

  • n: principal quantum number. It may have positive integer values: 1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6, 7, ...

  • l : Azimuthal or angular momentum quantum number. It may have integer values from 0 to n - 1.

       This quantum number is related to the type (or shape) of the orbital:

        For s orbitals l=0

        For p orbitals l=1

        For d orbitals l=2

         For f orbitals l=3

In this case, it is an s orbital, so we have l=0.

  • m_l , the third quantum number can have integer values  {from-l}   to    {+l}

       Since, for the s orbitals  l=0 , the only possible value for {m_l} is zero.

A ball of mass m, attached to the end of a horizontal cord, is rotated in a circle of radius r on a frictionless horizontal surf
kirza4 [7]

Answer:v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}

Explanation:

Given

Ball of mass m

maximum Bearable Tension in string is F

Let length of the cord be L m and moving at a speed of v m/s

Here Tension will Provide Centripetal Force

T=Centripetal Force

F=T=\frac{mv^2}{L}

v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}
