Answer:

1. Galvanic oxidation. Example is the corrosion of aluminium wires when in contact with copper wires under wet conditions.

2. Rainwater or Damp/moist air

3. Chromium-plated steel screws or stainless steel screws or galvanized steel screws

Explanation:

1. Galvanic oxidation or corrosion occurs when two different metals with different electrode potentials are brought into contact with each other by means of an electrolyte (usually a aqueous solution), such that a redox reaction occurs leading to one metal with the more negative electrode potential (the anode) becoming oxidized, while the other less negative potential (the cathode) is reduced.

In order for galvanic corrosion to occur, three elements are required.

i. Two metals with different corrosion potentials (anode and cathode)

ii. Direct metal-to-metal electrical contact

iii. A conductive electrolyte solution (e.g. water) must connect the two metals on a regular basis.

For example oxidation (corrosion) of aluminium wires when in contact with copper wire under wet conditions.

2. The most likely electrolyte will be rainwater containing dissoved solutes (if the panel is in an exposed part of the house) or damp/moist air.

3. From the table, the most likely screw will be chromium-plated steel screws or stainless steel (made of iron and nickel) screws or galvanized steel (zinc-plated) screws.

All these possible screw components have a more negative electrode potential than copper. Thus they will serve as the anode in a galvanic oxidation with copper.

Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g

Lerok [7]

The mass of water decomposed to produce 50 g oxygen has been 56.28 g. Thus, option D is correct.

The reaction for the decomposition of water has been:

$\rm 2\;H_2O\;\rightarrow\;H_2\;+\;O_2$

From the balanced equation, 2 moles of water decomposes to form 1 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen.

The mass of oxygen produced has been 50 g. The moles of oxygen has been given by:

$\rm Moles=\dfrac{mass}{molar\;mass}$

The moles of oxygen has been:

$\rm Moles_O_2=\dfrac{50}{32}\;mol\\Moles_O_2=1.5625\;mol$

The moles of oxygen produced has been 1.5625 mol.

The moles of hydrogen decomposed has been given from the balanced chemical equation as:

$\rm 1 \;mole\;O_2=2\;mole\;H_2O\\1.5625\;mol\;O_2=1.5625\;\times\;2\;mol\;H_2O\\1.5625\;mol\;O_2=3.125\;mol\;H_2O$

The moles of hydrogen decomposes has been 3.125 mol.

The mass of hydrogen decomposed has been given by:

$\rm Mass=moles\;times\;molar\;mass\\Mass_{H_2O}=3.125\;\times\;18.01\;g\\Mass_{H_2O}=56.28\;g$

The mass of water decomposed to produce 50 g oxygen has been 56.28 g. Thus, option D is correct.

What are land plants used for?

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Land plants are also known as Embryophytes. Embryophytes are complex multicellular eukaryotes with specialized reproductive organs. The name derives from their innovative characteristic of nurturing the young embryo sporophyte during the early stages of its multicellular development within the tissues of the parent gametophyte.

Which statement is true?

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: c. Matter and energy are conserved in chemical reactions.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of matter, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side.

For every chemical reaction, the law of conservation of energy is applicable which states that the energy of the system remains conserved. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can be transformed from one form to another.

Is Newton's statement a law or a theory? It is a theory because it developed and changed over time as new technology provided ne

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

It is a law because it is a statement of fact that does not need any more experimental support.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is an acceptable assumption that is formulated through the collection of information and data and that attempts to explain some phenomenon. In other words, a hypothesis is a conjecture with which one tries to explain an observed fact. The formulation of a hypothesis can be derived in two different ways: by generalization, from a certain number of cases or observed phenomena; and, by analogies observed in the occurrence of different phenomena.

A theory is something that attempts to explain some phenomenon and that is accepted as true by the scientific community. In other words, a theory is a set of rules that describe the behavior of a particular system.

A law is a statement that expresses the constant relationships between phenomena of nature, society or the mind. Scientific law can be defined as an invariable relationship of terms. In other words, a law is what is scientifically proven to be true, it is universally applicable.

So scientific theories and scientific laws are based on hypotheses. But a theory is the explanation of an observed phenomenon, while a scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon.

The movements of bodies in space are governed by Newton's Laws. These are laws why they are demonstrated by mathematical formulas and Universal application.

Then, the correct option is <u><em>"It is a law because it is a statement of fact that does not need any more experimental support."</em></u>
