Explanation:
Polymerization is the process whereby two or more monomers link together to form a compound of high molecular mass called a polymer.
There are two kinds of polymers;
-Addition polymers
-Condensation polymers
Addition polymers are formed by the joining of two or more monomers to form a polymer without the elimination of a small molecule.
Condensation polymers are formed by the joining of two or more molecules to form polymers with the elimination of a small molecule.
The main difference between polyethene and polyester is that polyethene is an addition polymer while polyester is a condensation polymer.
In polyethene, ethene molecules are joined together having the repeating unit as [-CH2-CH2-]n.
In polyester, the polymer arises from the reaction of carboxylic acid and an alcohol and loss of water molecules.
Answer:
A) 7.9 x 10⁶ inches
B) 1004 g
C) 2.8 x 10³ inches/ min
D) 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mm
Explanation:
A) Since 39.37 inches = 1 m, you can convert meters to inches by multiplying by the conversion factor (39.37 inches / 1 m).
Notice that if 39.37 inches = 1 m then 39.37 inches / 1 m = 1. That means that when you multiply by a conversion factor, you are only changing units since it is the same as multiplying by 1 :
2.0 x 10⁵ m * (39.37 inches / 1 m) = 7.9 x 10⁶ inches
B) Conversion factors : (2.205 pounds / 1 kg) and (453.59 g / 1 pound), because 2.205 pounds = 1 kg and 1 pound = 453.59 g. Then:
1.004 kg * ( 2.205 pounds / 1 kg) * ( 453.59 g / 1 pound) = 1004 g
C) Conversion factor: (39.37 inches / 1 m) and (60 s / 1 min)
1.2 m/s * (39.37 inches / 1 m) * ( 60 s / 1 min) = 2.8 x 10³ inches/ min
D)Converison factor ( 1 mm / 1 x 10⁶ nm):
120 nm (1 mm / 1 x 10⁶ nm) = 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mm
It is always half of what the o2 is
<span>Energy is transferred through the separate trophic levels of a food chain or web by feeding.The first trophic level (producers) is that of plants which are examples of autotrophs – they make their own food. Photosynthesis occurs when the plants use solar energy and convert it into chemical energy so it can be stored in a carbon compound. Once this has happened the energy can be taken up by the primary consumers – these are in the second trophic level (herbivores and omnivores). Secondary consumers also need to gain energy in some way, and this is by eating the primary consumers that have gained energy from the producers, this means that the second trophic level has successfully transferred energy into the third level containing omnivores and carnivores. A succession in energy transferral means that a food web or food chain has a tertiary and/or quaternary trophic level which can contain carnivores and omnivores which are plant and animal eaters (this includes humans).This transfer in energy is fairly efficient for the organisms involved as around 10% of light energy that is converted into chemical energy through photosynthesis is transferred through the trophic levels, the rest is lost in respiration, as heat, faeces and urine. Not all of the energy can be passed along a food web or chain as it must be used in other things too, so it cannot be 100% efficient.</span>
<span>Cause and Effect relationship questions can be answered through science. Science can't answer definite explanations of a question but can show the relationships that they have concluded through research. As an example I did an experiment when I was a kid on mold growing on applesauce if Cinnamon slowed growth or not. I could conclude that there did seem to be a relationship with cinnamon and applesauce that cinnamon slowed growth. I can't say it definitely proved it it just showed the relationship.</span>
