natita [175]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

D. bromine (Br)

Explanation:

Bromine is an element of halogen group.

Halogens, or "salt-formers," are located in group 17 of the periodic table. The halogens have  the following properties:

1) They have low melting points and low boiling points.

2) They exist as diatomic molecules in the gas phase.

3) They have seven electrons in their outermost shell, which means they have seven valence

electrons.

4) They are highly reactive nonmetals.

5) They tend to gain electrons and form negative ions.

Thus the given properties are of Bromine.

Fire ants move in to a new environment with the lizards.what will most likely happen to the lizard population over the next seve
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Some lizards in the eastern U.S. have adapted to invasive fire ants -- which can bite, sting, and kill lizards -- reversing geographical trends in behavioral and physical traits used to avoid predators. A new study describing this reversal appears online on November 29, 2018, in the journal Global Change Biology and reveals that new environmental challenges can override the historical influences that originally determined geographical trends in traits.

"Rapid environmental change, be it from changing climate or the introduction of invasive species, is putting a lot of pressure on native species," said Christopher Thawley, graduate student at Penn State at the time of the study and first author of the paper. "Usually when researchers look at how native species might respond to these kinds of threats, they might measure one characteristic of the animal and at one or a few sites. In this study, we looked at three separate characteristics of eastern fence lizards from thirteen sites spanning a thousand miles and found that these lizards are capable of adapting in a concerted way to meet the threat of invasive fire ants, and in a relatively short time frame."

Predict and Balance the following reaction:
Umnica [9.8K]

A. The balanced chemical reaction of Sodium metal and Water is 2Na  +  2H₂O  →  2NaOH    +   H₂.

<h3>What is a balanced chemical equation? </h3>

A balanced equation contains the same number of each type of atoms on both the left and right sides of the reaction arrow.

<h3>Reaction of Sodium metal and Water</h3>

Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2).

The balanced chemical reaction is written below;

2Na  +  2H₂O  →  2NaOH    +   H₂

Thus, the balanced chemical reaction of Sodium metal and Water is 2Na  +  2H₂O  →  2NaOH    +   H₂.

In the operation of the Heat Transfer Service Unit, one of the variables you can control is the rate of cooling water flowing ag
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

A. The rate of heat transfer through the material would increase.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat transfer in a heat exchanger you decide that there is not heat leakage to the surroundings, that means that  magnitude of the two transfer rates will be equal. Any heat lost by the hot fluid, is gained by the cold fluid. The equation that describes this is Q = m×Cp×dT

Where:

heat = mass flow ×specific heat capacity × temperature difference

So if we increase the rate of flow of cooling water and the other variables that ypu can control remain the same, the result is that the rate of heat transfer through the material would increase, as it is stated in option a.

Hydrogen has three naturally occurring isotopes which figure into the average atomic mass found on the periodic table (1.00974):
Art [367]
The number following the name of the element is the number of subatomic particles inside the nucleus of the atom. This means that it is the mass number of the isotope. The average atomic mass of the element is the sum of the products of the percentage abundance and mass number of the naturally occurring isotopes. 

Since, the average atomic mass of the hydrogen is nearest to 1 then, the most abundant isotope should be hydrogen-1.

Which of the following is true?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

a. A reaction in which the entropy of the system increases can be spontaneous only if it is endothermic.

Explanation:

The change in free energy (ΔG) that is, the <u>energy available to do work</u>, of a system for a constant-temperature process is:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

  • When ΔG < 0 the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction.
  • When ΔG > 0 the reaction is nonspontaneous. The reaction is

spontaneous in the opposite direction.

  • When ΔG = 0 the system is at equilibrium.

If <u>both ΔH and ΔS are positive</u>, then ΔG will be negative only when the TΔS  term is greater in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is large.
