Yes. Strong bases are too. In fact, they’re more dangerous to your skin than acids.
Light travels at precisely <span>299,792,458 metres every second (abbreviated to 3 x 10^8 metres every second but let's be precise)
There are 60 seconds in every minute (</span><span>299 792 458 x 60 = 17,987,547,480m)
60 minutes in every hour (17,987,547,480 x 60 = 1,079,252,849,000m)
96 hours in 4 days (</span><span>1,079,252,849,000 x 96 = 10,360,827,350,000m)
</span><span>Now let's convert to km to make this number (slightly) more manageable
(</span>10,360,827,350,000 / 1000 = <span>103,608,273,500km)
</span>Light travels <span>103,608,273,500km in 4 days - that's the equivalent of going around the equator of the earth 813,124 times!</span><span>

The oxidation number of hydrogen in HNC is +1.
In fact, the oxidation number of hydrogen in any compound will generally be +1; a major exception would be in the case of metal hydrides (e.g., NaH), where the hydrogen exists as a negative ion.
Answer:
A FUSE is a type of conductor which protects the circuit by shorting it down when there is excess flow of current passing through it.
Explanation:
A fuse wire is made up of conducting materials such as alloy of tin and lead that has high resistivity. It has a low melting point of 200°C. It works based on the principle of heating effect of electric current. The functions of fuses include the following:
--> Fuses are made up of thin wire CONDUCTORS which interrupts or breaks the current flow of a circuit when in excess, thereby protecting the circuit from damage.
--> it prevents overload of current. In the event where too many appliances are connected to a single circuit, this can lead to overload which triggers a fuse to terminate the circuit connection.
--> It prevents total black-out: SWITCH-LIKE devices known as CIRCUIT BREAKERS share this function with the fuses. The nearest circuit breaks if any dysfunction occurs in the components of the circuit thereby preventing blackout.
