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.

The characteristic of epithelial cells that makes them ideal for providing this type of protection is that the cells are packed tightly together. 
Skin, the body's largest organ,is our first and best defense against external aggressors. The many layers work hard to protect us, however when its condition is compromised, its ability to work as an effective barrier is impaired.

Write a brief essay describing how Newton’s Laws explain how a rocket in space can move objects
statuscvo [17]
The First Law describes how an object acts when no force is acting upon it. So, rockets stay still until a force is applied to move them. Likewise, once they're in motion, they won't stop until a force is applied. Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry. Newton's Third Law states that "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In a rocket, burning fuel creates a push on the front of the rocket pushing it forward.

Donna drove to the mountains last weekend. There was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 8 hours. When Donna drove
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

d=360 miles

Donna lives 360 miles from the mountains.

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

We apply the formula to calculate uniform moving distance[

d=v*t   Formula (1)

d: distance in miles

t: time in hours

v: speed in miles/hour

Development of problem

The distance Donna traveled to the mountains is equal to the distance back home, equal to d,then,we pose the kinematic equations for d, applying formula 1:

travel data to the mountains: t₁= 8 hours ,  v=v₁

d= v₁*t₁=8*v₁ Equation (1)

data back home : t₂=4hours ,  v=v₂=v₁+45

d=v₂*t₂=(v₁+45)*4=4v₁+180 Equation (2)

Equation (1)=Equation (2)

8*v₁=4v₁+180

8*v₁-4v₁=180

4v₁=180

v₁=180÷4=45 miles/hour

we replace v₁=45 miles/hour in equation (1)

d=8hour*45miles/hour

d=360 miles

An object appears red when viewed with white light. What color would it appear when viewed with blue light?
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Colour of any object is by the colour of light it reflects i.e if white light is incident on the object,it will reflect blue color.so it will appear blue.But if red light is incident on it,it will not reflect that and absorb it.so as it will not reflect any light it will appear black.
