Answer:a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature

Explanation:

Water has relatively high heat capacity i.e. it requires high amount of heat to raise a little increase in temperature.

Heat capacity is defined as ability of molecule to absorb heat . Mathematically heat capacity is defined as

C=\frac{Q}{\Delta T}

where C=heat\ capacity

Q=heat\ interaction

\Delta T=change\ in\ Temperature

During the deceleration of an ascending elevator, the normal force on the feet of a passenger is _____ her weight. During the de
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: Smaller than ; larger than

Explanation:

When the elevator is moving in the upward direction, then the force acting on it is negative in nature because of

N= mg +ma, (g is gravity and a is acceleration)

here ma is negative so the N= mg-ma

Hence, it feels smaller than its original weight.

When the elevator is moving downward , then the force acting will be positive in nature

N= mg+ma,

here ma will be positive so it feels larger the original weight of passenger.

Rubidium forms the positive ion Rb+. Does this ion have more or fewer electrons than the neutral atom?
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The ion has fewer electrons

Explanation:

As Rubidium forms a positive ion Rb⁺ the number of electrons becomes fewer for the atom.

  • A positive charge on an ion indicates that the number of protons for the atom is greater than the number of electrons.
  • This leaves a net positive charge on the atom.
  • For a negatively charged ion, the number of electrons is more than the number of protons because they have gained additional electrons.
  • In a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons are the same.
