Answer:

Option A) Atoms have lost or gained an electron and have a charge

Explanation:

The result of a loss or gained electron can cause a large or lesser number of protons than the electrons, which causes a charge imbalance because protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge.  If the number of protons or the number of electrons is unequal, then it means that the atom has a charge, and is an ion.  It is a cation if it lost an electron such that it has a positive charge and it is an anion if it gained an electron such that it has a negative charge.

When designing an engineering solution, certain criteria and constraints must be considered. Criteria are the features of the de
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The criteria listed in order of importance are;

1) To be inflated in the event of a collision in order to protect the occupants of the front of the vehicle

2) To be able to withstand the load of the breaking force of the occupants in the front seat of the vehicle during a collision

3) To be relatively tough so as to resist being torn on impact with a sharp object

The constraints listed in order of importance are;

1) How is the model design able to sense a collision that requires the airbag to be inflated

2) The uncertainty of the load the airbag will withstand upon collision

3) The possible hazard that could be caused by the gas used to inflate the airbag

4) The usage/interaction tendency between the vehicle occupant and the airbag system

Explanation:

In order to produce an effective design, it is important to be able to foresee the possible deficiencies of an idea so as to be able to mitigate the problems before an actual incident happens.

When the concentration of reactant molecules is increased
a_sh-v [17]

Complete question is;

When the concentrations of reactant molecules are increased, the rate of reaction increases. The best explanation for this phenomenon is that as the reactant concentration increases,

A)the average kinetic energy of molecules increases.

B)the frequency of molecular collisions increases.

C)the rate constant increases.

D)the activation energy increases.

E)the order of reaction increases.

Answer:

B) The frequency of molecular collisions increases.

Explanation:

When we increase number of reactant molecules, the effective collision between the reactant molecules will form a product which also increases. As a result, the overall rate of the reaction will also increase which means the frequency of the molecular collision will also increase as well.

Thus, the correct answer is Option B
