Answer: *Scientists can easily classify mixtures of unknown substances.

*Engineers can design better bridges because they know how metal changes shape.

*Engineers can design safer structures because they understand the flammability of building materials.

Explanation:

Physical properties of the material can be define as the properties which can be observed or measured without changing the composition of the material. These properties includes texture, odor, color, boiling point, density, polarity, solubility, melting point, and others.

*Scientists can easily classify mixtures of unknown substances. : The mixtures of the metals can be separated by their physical properties such as color, shape and size of the metal particles.

*Engineers can design better bridges because they know how metal changes shape.: The change in shape is a physical property, understanding this property can help the engineers to design the bridges better.

*Engineers can design safer structures because they understand the flammability of building materials. :

Flammability is indicating towards the melting point of the building materials. Thus engineers must design the materials which is safe from flammability and must have a high melting point.

Answer:

*Engineers can design better bridges because they know how metal changes shape.

*Scientists can easily classify mixtures of unknown substances.

Explanation:

Tensile strength and the properties of mixtures are physical properties because the substances are not changed into different ones.

A. and C. are wrong. Combustion and other reactions are chemical properties because the substances are changed into different ones

Explain how ice acts as an agent of erosion and deposition
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Ice is the last major agent of weathering, erosion, and deposition.

Explanation:

Water often seeps into the cracks in rocks. When the temperature drops, the water in the cracks freeze and expand, causing the crack to widen. Eventually, the rock is broken into smaller pieces.

Lastly, Snape thinks we should try one more calculation.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

E) 0.90

Explanation:

In TLC (Thin-Layer-Chromatography) retention factor RF is defined as the ratio between distance of the sample and the solvent front. RF is very important in chemistry to know the composition of any sample by comparison.

In the problem, as the sample has a distance of 0,20cm from the solvent front, the distance of the sample is:

2,0cm - 0,20 cm =<em> 1,8 cm</em>. Thus, RF is:

RF = 1,8cm / 2,0cm = 0,90

<em>E) 0,90</em>

<em />

How do I solve this?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The heat contained is 1236 Joules

Explanation:

As we know

Q = mc\DeltaT

Where

\DeltaT is the change in temperature

m is the mass in grams

c is the specific heat of water (ice) = 2.06 joules/gram

Substituting the given values, we get -

Q = 20 * (-15+45)*2.06\\Q = 20*2.06*30\\Q = 1236Joules
