Wind transports large rocks by _____.

1 answer:

8 0

Wind transports large rocks by rock erosion. Erosion should be distinguished from weathering. Erosion is the movement of rocks from one place to other location due to external factors like wind, water or gravity. Weathering, on the other hand, is the breaking of rock into smaller pieces by processes.

Chemical energy is stored in our food. What form of energy did this chemical energy start out as?

evablogger [386]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Plants used to prepare food in the presence of sunlight. Therefore, plants uses solar energy to make food.

Due to solar energy various chemical reactions take place in the food.

Thus, we can conclude that chemical energy is stored in our food and this chemical energy start out as light energy from the sun.

How do the properties of compounds often compare with the properties of the elements that make them

const2013 [10]

The properties of a compound are nothing like the properties of th elements that combine to make it.

sodium chloride,NaCl, table salt, is a white cubic crystal, stable ionic compound, soluble in water
sodium is a soft metal, very reactive with water and air
chlorine is a yellow green gas that is poisonous and very reactive.

carbon dioxide, CO2, is a clear, colorless gas that puts out fires, plants use but we breath out.
carbon is a black solid, or a diamond
oxygen is a clear colorless gas that is needed for burning and breathing.

What is the half-life of an isotope that decays to 6.25% of its original activity in 18.9 hours?

inessss [21]

Radioactive material obeys 1st order decay kinetics,
For 1st order reaction, we have
k = $\frac{2.303}{t}Xlog \frac{\text{initial conc.}}{\text{final conc.}}$
where, k = rate constant of reaction

Given: Initial conc. 100, Final conc. = 6.25, t = 18.9 hours

∴ k = $\frac{2.303}{18.9} X log \frac{100}{6.25}$ = 0.1467 hours^(-1)

Now, for 1st order reactions: half life = $\frac{0.693}{k} = \frac{0.693}{0.1467}$ = 4.723 hours.

Draw the Lewis structure for the compound with the formula COCl2COCl2. Use lines to show bonding electrons.

stira [4]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of $COCl_2$ is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $COCl_2$

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, chlorine has '7' valence electron and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $COCl_2$ = 1(4) + 2(7) + 1(6) = 24

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.
