If you leave a cup of hot chocolate sitting on a table what eventually happens to the temperature? Does the temperature ever rea
Ksivusya [100]

Ah , a cup of hot chocolate is alot of chocolate. Im gonna drool ; )

Well , heat flows from an area of high temperature to an area of low temperature. Here , hot chocolate has the high temp , and the surrounding has a room temp. So , the heat from the hot chocolate will dissipate into the surroundings and create a thermal equilibrium. So youre right.

What happens to a solid if thermal energy is reduced
kompoz [17]
When a substance is heated, it gains thermal energy. Therefore, its particles move faster and its temperature rises. When a substance is cooled, it loses thermal energy, which causes its particles to move more slowly and its temperature to drop.

What is the net charge of the peptide arg-ala-phe-leu at ph 8?
adell [148]
The structure of this oligopeptide is attached:

It consists of arginine - alanine - phenylalanine and leucine

From the picture we can see that N terminus charge is +1
Also Arginine is considered as basic amino acid with charge +1
C terminus charge is -1

At pH = 8, the whose pKa are less than pH will be deprotonated and the net charge will be +1 

So the net charge of this oligopeptide is +1 at pH = 8

Calculate the atomic mass of X. The three X isotopes have atomic mass and relative abundances of 27.9769 amu (92.2297%), 28.9765
Irina18 [472]
<h3>Answer:  Si   (choice D)</h3>

This is the element Silicon.

=========================================================

Explanation:

First convert each percentage to its decimal form.

For example, 92.2297% converts to 0.922297 after moving the decimal point two spots to the left.

After doing that, multiply those decimal values with their respective atomic mass unit (amu) values.

  • 27.9769 * 0.922297 = 25.8030109393
  • 28.9765 * 0.046832 = 1.357027448
  • 29.9738 * 0.030872 = 0.9253511536

Then we add up the results

25.8030109393 + 1.357027448 + 0.9253511536 = 28.0853895409

That rounds to about 28.085

Then look at the periodic table to see the atomic mass of Cobalt (Co), Aluminum (Al), Nickel (Ni) and Silicon (Si). The mass values listed in the periodic table are weighted averages of all the isotopes. The units for the mass are still in amu.

  • Cobalt = 58.933
  • Aluminum = 26.982
  • Nickel = 58.693
  • Silicon = 28.085

We have a match with silicon, showing that <u>choice D</u> is the final answer.
