<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

a) It allows electrons to flow from the anode to the cathode.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

<em><u>Voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell in which a spontaneous chemical reaction produces the flow of electrons</u></em>.
Electrons are produced by the oxidation reaction occurring at the anode. Electrons flow through the conducting wire from the anode to the cathode. At the cathode these electrons are used to reduce copper(II) ions to copper atoms.
<em><u>A conducting wire or a wire play connects the two electrodes allowing electrons to flow from the anode to the cathode</u></em>.

A balloon contains 5 L of oxygen at a pressure of 90 kPa. How much oxygen will the balloon contain if the pressure is lowered to

laila [671]

Answer is: volume will be 6,7 L.
Boyle's Law: the pressure volume law - <span> volume of a given amount of gas held varies inversely with the applied pressure when the temperature and mass are constant.
p</span>₁V₁ = p₂V₂.
90 kPa · 5 L = 67 kPa · V₂.
V₂ = 90 kPa · 5 L / 67 kPa.
V₂ = 6,7 L, but same amount of oxygen.

When energy is transferred from the air to the water, what happens to most of the energy? A. It travels through the water. B. It

BigorU [14]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When energy is transferred from the air to the water then energy is absorbed by the water molecules.

This energy travels through one molecule of water to another molecule of water by the process of convection.

Thus, we can conclude that when energy is transferred from the air to the water, then it travels through the water.

What are the atomic number and mass number of this atom

lina2011 [118]

No diagram is given therefore I cannot answer however, use this for reference.
The atomic mass of an atom would be the number of protons PLUS the number of neutrons. Because this atom shown has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, they add up to 12. In this case, the atomic mass of this atom is 12. Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, in this case it is 6. The atomic number is 6.
