Chemistry

Softa [21]3 years ago

Answer and explanation;

Na - metal

Cl - poisonous gas

NaCl - cyrstaline solid that is edible

An emergent property is a property which a collection or complex system has, but which the individual members do not.  

Water emergent properties: cohesion & adhesion, versatile solvent, temperature moderation, freezing.

The properties of a compound can be very different from the properties of the elements that make them, for example, Sodium is an explosive metal, and  Chlorine is a toxic gas, however, sodium chloride is a Delicious table salt!

Answer:

It helps the body remove heat through sweating.

Explanation:

When the weather is hot, the body tries to keep cool by sweating. The high specific heat capacity means that the body doesn't have to lose much water to stay cool.

The high specific heat capacity of water doesn’t heat the body, but it slows down the rate of heat loss when the weather is cool.

B is wrong. The body uses glucose, not water, as an energy source.

C is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water is not connected with the body's ability to store it.

D is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water doesn't heat the body, but it slows the rate at which it cools.

How many cm 3 are in 0.014 in 3? (1 in = 2.54 cm)
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

0.229 cm³.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Volume (in in³) = 0.014 in³

Volume (in cm³) =?

1 in = 2.54 cm

Next, we shall determine a conversion scale to convert from in³ to cm³. This can be obtained as follow:

1 in = 2.54 cm

Therefore,

1 in³ = 2.54³ cm³

1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

Finally, we shall convert 0.014 in³ to cm³. This can be obtained as follow:

1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

Therefore,

0.014 in³ = 0.014 in³ × 16.387 cm³ / 1 in³

0.014 in³ = 0.229 cm³

Thus, 0.014 in³ is equivalent to 0.229 cm³.
