Why do the two elements silver and iron have different properties?

1 answer:

4 0

Elements in same group / family tend to have similar properties ( but not exactly the same). Since, iron and silver are in two different group / families, they have different properties.

Also, Silver and iron have different properties because they have different atomic structure. Having different atomic structure means bonding differently with other elements. So, they have different properties.

Jeffrey wants to lose weight by using caffeine to

irinina [24]

Answer:

4. The amount of caffeine in the drinks

5. The heart rate of the participants of the experiments

6. Water

7. i) The volume of drink taken should be constant

ii) The frequency of taking their drink is constant

iii) The time of drinking by the brothers is constant

Explanation:

In the question, Jeffery intends to find the caffeine drink that will result in the heart rate increasing most

The variables (varieties) of drinks tested by Jeffery = Pepsi, espresso, and water

Drink variable arranged by the order of increasing Caffeine content are presented as follows;

Caffeine content of water < Caffeine content of Pepsi < Caffeine content of espresso

The triplet with the double shot of espresso = The triplet with the highest heart rate

4. The independent variable is the variable which is suspected to be the cause of the specified observation

Therefore, in the question, the independent variable are the drinks with different amount of caffeine

5. The dependent variable is the effect or the outcome of the independent variable

The dependent variable in the question is the heart rate of the subjects in the study

6. The control group is the independent variable or input that is expected to give the minimum effect or output compared to other independent variables in the study such that the control group does not contain the suspected cause of the observation or effect under investigation

The control group (or variable) in the question is water which does not contain caffeine

7. Three constants that all three brothers should be doing are;

i) The three brothers should be taking a constant or the same quantity of their preferred drink

ii) The frequency at which they take their drinks should be constant

iii) The time at which the brothers take the drink should be the same

Which of the following equilibria would not be affected by pressure changes at constant temperature?

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Option A) CO(g) + 1/2O2(g) <=> CO2(g).

Explanation:

A background knowledge of reaction rates shows that pressure will only affect gaseous reactant.

Further more, we understood that for pressure to effectively affect gaseous molecules, the total volume of the gaseous reactant must be different from the total volume of the gaseous products.

Now, let us consider the equation given in the question:

A) CO(g) + 1/2O2(g) <=> CO2(g).

B) CaCO3(s) <=> CaO(s) + CO2(g).

C) 2H2(g) + O2(g) <=> 2H2O(l).

D) 2Hg(l) + O2(g) <=> 2HgO(s).

E) CO2(g) + H2(g) <=> CO(g) + H2O(g).

From the above, only option A and E has gaseous reactant and product.

For option A:

CO(g) + 1/2O2(g) <=> CO2(g).

Total volume of reactant = 1 + 1/2 = 3/2 L

Total volume of product = 1 L

Since the volume of the reactant and that of the product are different, therefore, a change in pressure will affect the reaction.

For option E:

CO2(g) + H2(g) <=> CO(g) + H2O(g).

Total volume of reactant = 1 + 1 = 2 L

Total volume of product = 1 + 1 = 2 L

Since the volume of the reactant and that of the product are the same, therefore, a change in pressure will have no effect in the reaction.

A student makes several measurements of the density of an unknown mineral sample. She then reports the average value of these me

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

B). Precision.

Explanation:

During the course of measurements, two important factors are been seen to play key part which are accuracy and also precision. Precision here can reflect to the closeness of an answer towards the main value even though accuracy can show that too. Also it can show series of values been reproduced in the measurement flow; though in some cases can be a bit far from the actual value. Also its values are swen to be different because of repeatition and alsio in some cases, observational errors too.
