The kinetic energy of a charged particle is related to the electric field potential via the following equation:

1/2*m*v² = q* E -----(1)

where m = mass of the particle

v = velocity

q = charge

E = potential

since kinetic energy KE = 1/2mv², eq (1) can be written as:

KE = q*E

i.e kinetic energy of a charge is directly proportional to the strength of the electric field potential (E)

Therefore, as the charge moves from a higher to a lower potential, its kinetic energy will also decrease.

Ans: B)

The kinetic energy decreases

Which of the following best explains why ionic crystals are brittle?​
Natalka [10]

Packing

Explanation:

Ionic crystals are  brittle due to the tight packing of their crystals. This provides little to no mobility between one another.

  • Brittleness implies having little to no elasticity.
  • Ionic crystals are held together by strong crystal lattice forces
  • These forces prevents crystals from freely rotating and moving space.
  • It holds them rigidly and fixed in place.
  • Ionic crystals are hard and held electrostatic forces.

A sample of ammonia ^NH3h gas is completely decomposed to nitrogen and hydrogen gases over heated iron wool. If the total pressu
icang [17]

Answer : The partial pressure of N_2 and H_2 is, 216.5 mmHg and 649.5 mmHg

Explanation :

According to the Dalton's Law, the partial pressure exerted by component 'i' in a gas mixture is equal to the product of the mole fraction of the component and the total pressure.

Formula used :

p_i=X_i\times p_T

X_i=\frac{n_i}{n_T}

So,

p_i=\frac{n_i}{n_T}\times p_T

where,

p_i = partial pressure of gas

X_i = mole fraction of gas

p_T = total pressure of gas

n_i = moles of gas

n_T = total moles of gas

The balanced decomposition of ammonia reaction will be:

2NH_3\rightarrow N_2+3H_2

Now we have to determine the partial pressure of N_2 and H_2

p_{N_2}=\frac{n_{N_2}}{n_T}\times p_T

Given:

n_{N_2}=1\\\\n_{H_2}=3\\\\n_{T}=4\\\\p_T=866mmHg

p_{N_2}=\frac{1}{4}\times (866mmHg)=216.5mmHg

and,

p_{H_2}=\frac{n_{H_2}}{n_T}\times p_T

Given:

n_{H_2}=1\\\\n_{H_2}=3\\\\n_{T}=4\\\\p_T=866mmHg

p_{H_2}=\frac{3}{4}\times (866mmHg)=649.5mmHg

Thus, the partial pressure of N_2 and H_2 is, 216.5 mmHg and 649.5 mmHg

Rosa drew a flow chart of the carbon cycle.
Lisa [10]

The correct Answer is A.

The Flow chart of the Carbon Cycle, will look as follows:

1. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

2. Producers undergo photosynthesis (in this process plants among other producers like algae, use CO2 to produce energy).

3. Consumers eat producers (a primary level of consumer like a rabbit eats the producers or plants).

4. Decomposers return Carbon to the soil and release waste.

And the  cycle continues again, by going back to step 1.
