<span>The two methods that can be used do break down compounds into simpler substances or smaller units, are known as Hydrolysis and Photolysis. 

Hydrolysis uses water to split a molecule. Water is used to break the bonds of a molecule. There are three main types of hydrolysis:</span>1. acid hydrolysis2. base hydrolysis 3. salt hydrolysis

Photolysis uses energy from light to split molecules.  This energy is called photons. As in hydrolysis, photons are used to break the bonds of a molecule. Photolysis is a chemical reaction.

<span>Photolysis and hydrolysis. These are two methods that can be used to break down a compound into simpler substances and smaller units.

Water which is used to break the bonds of molecules and split molecules is used from hydrolysis. Hydrolysis is made of three types which include;
1. salt hydrolysis.
2. acid hydrolysis.
3. Base hydrolysis.
 Photolysis is well known to use energy from light to split the molecule and the same energy is referred to as photons which are used to break builds of molecules.</span>

31. What are the major groups of microrganisms?
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

31.Microbial

32.Coke is a grey, hard, and porous fuel with a high carbon content and few impurities, made by heating coal or oil in the absence of air—a destructive distillation process. It is an important industrial product, used mainly in iron ore smelting, but also as a fuel in stoves and forges when air pollution is a concern.

33.examples to show that plastics are non corrosive in nature: Iron nails get rusted when exposed to moisture and air but plastic do not react with water and air. Plastic does not react with strong chemicals. Hence,cleansing chemicals are stored in plastic bottles and not in metal containers.

34.rainfall made sufficiently acidic by atmospheric pollution that it causes environmental harm, typically to forests and lakes. The main cause is the industrial burning of coal and other fossil fuels, the waste gases from which contain sulfur and nitrogen oxides, which combine with atmospheric water to form acids.

35.in an insect or amphibian) the process of transformation from an immature form to an adult form in two or more distinct stages.

Which of these is not an example of a possible additive used in ink?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

greases

Explanation:

Ink is manufactured in two stages: first varnish (a mixture of solvent, resins and additives) is made and then pigments are mixed into it. Varnish is a clear liquid that solidifies as a thin film. It binds the pigment to the printed surface, provides the printability of the ink and wets the pigment particles. Ink made with color usually includes the following ingredients: petroleum distillate solvent, linseed oil, some form of organic pigments, and soybean oil. Inorganic pigments are not commonly used.

Additives play a critical role in the formulation and production of inks, helping to impart the necessary characteristics the ink needs, whether it is to run more smoothly on press or to protect the finished product.

However, grease is not one of the likely additives to ink hence it is not essentially used in ink production.

Stimulation optimization helps
EastWind [94]
Optimization helps you make better choices when you have all the data, and simulation helps you understand the possible outcomes when you don’t. Frontline Solvers enable you to combine these analytic methods, so you can make better choices for decisions you do control, taking into account the range of potential outcomes for factors you don’t control.
