Answer: B-- the length of the chain and degree of cross-linking.

Explanation: Silicones can be oils or rubber-like materials depending on ___the length of the chain and degree of cross-linking.____

Silicone rubber is an elastomer which is composed of silicone containing silicon together with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. silicone rubber can be found in a wide variety of products because of its ability to withstand very high temperatures and pressures. eg cooking and food storage products; clothing apparels , automotive devices etc   while

Silicone oil is a linear chain siloxane repeating units Si--0 with radical side group as such as methyl, phenyl etc  bonded to it. They are oils because of they are  viscose  and have ability to  repel. Silicone oils are mostly employed in medicine for surgical tools.

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

d = 0.93 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of object = 28 g

Volume of object = 3cm×2cm×5cm

density of object = ?

Solution:

Volume of object = 3cm × 2cm ×5cm

Volume of object = 30 cm³

Density of object:

d = m/v

by putting values,

d = 28 g/ 30 cm³

d = 0.93 g/cm³

aliina [53]
<h2>Answer : Option D) Solutions of salt and water conduct electricity. </h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

The best description of salt is that when they are dissolved in water they dissociate into ions and become electrolytic in nature. This is observed that these solutions of salt will conduct electricity. Dissociation of ions helps the solution to conduct electricity. Usually salts dissociate into respective cations and anions of the salt compound. Most of the salts can be obtained as a product from neutralization reactions.
