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.

Dos cargas iguales de 10^-7C estan separadas por una distancia de 2m. calcule la fuerza con que se repelen
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N

Explanation:

According to question,

Charge 1 and charge 2 are 10^{-7}\ C

The distance between charges is 2 m

We need to find the force with which two positive charges repel. It is called electrostatic force of repulsion. It can be given by :

F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (10^{-7})^2}{2^2}\\\\F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N

So, the electric force of repulsion is 2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N.

WHAT IS THE DENSTY OF ALL THE LAYER IN THE ATMOSPHERE
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The troposphere starts at the Earth's surface and extends 8 to 14.5 kilometers high (5 to 9 miles). This part of the atmosphere is the most dense. Almost all weather is in this region.

Assume you have an ice cube and also a small rock that is the same size and shape as the ice cube. Predict what would happen if
Step2247 [10]

Answer: The ice cube would float on top of the water and the rock would sink to the bottom.

Explanation: The ice cube has a smaller density than the rock which allows the ice cube to float but makes the rock sink to the bottom of the glass of water.

Two wheels with fixed hubs and radii 0.51 m and 1.9 m, each having a mass of 3 kg, start from rest. Forces 5 N and F2 are applie
Katarina [22]

Answer:

18.63 N

Explanation:

Assuming that the sum of torques are equal

Στ = Iα

First wheel

Στ = 5 * 0.51 = 3 * (0.51)² * α

On making α subject of formula, we have

α = 2.55 / 0.7803

α = 3.27

If we make the α of each one equal to each other so that

5 / (3 * 0.51) = F2 / (3 * 1.9)

solve for F2 by making F2 the subject of the formula, we have

F2 = (3 * 1.9 * 5) / (3 * 0.51)

F2 = 28.5 / 1.53

F2 = 18.63 N

Therefore, the force F2 has to 18.63 N in order to impart the same angular acceleration to each wheel.

Earlier we discussed the concept of isostasy, where lower density rocks rise higher than higher density rocks. How is the variat
Elena L [17]

The variation of water depth at spreading centers (ridges) controlled by isostasy  as convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.

<h3>What is convective heat transfer?</h3>

When heat transfer takes place between the two fluids in direct or indirect contact.

The lithosphere cools when it moves away from the ridge axis by sea floor spreading. The cooler rocks have low density, so the sea floor gets deeper as the lithosphere gets more dense.

Thus, the convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.
