Answer:

The answer is d. water molecules near the surface produce more buoyant force than water molecules within the liquid

Explanation: Surface tension is defined as the attraction on the water of like particles to one another. Water molecules on a surface undergoes cohesion or the sticking together of one molecule to another of the same material.

Answer:

D)Water molecules near the surface produce more buoyant force than water molecules within the liquid.

Explanation:

Buoyant force that is provided by water molecules such that the object can float on the surface of the water. According to Archimedes principle for flotation to occur the buoyant force must be equal to the weight of the object.  If the buoyant force is less than the weight of the object, then the object will sink.

Pasteur's study of fermentation was critical to the development of microbiology because A. fermentation chemistry occurs in the
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

B. It showed that microorganisms bring about chemical changes

Explanation:

In 1857 Pasteur was working to solve a problem with the distillers of Lille in wich in their barrels the alcoholic fermentation become in a  lactic fermentation, and of course, that was something that they didn't want. Throughout diferents studyes Pasteur discover that different microorganism where involved directly (where responsible) in different types of fermentation.

It's important to remember that elements are
miv72 [106K]

No, unless you're doing some sort of course where they demand that you do. It's useful to remember the general features of the periodic table (what each block is, where they are in relation to each other, roughly where the most common elements are), but memorizing the entire thing would simply be a mnemonic exercise

Empirical formula of ch2 and molar formula of 56 grams what is molecular formula
attashe74 [19]
<span>One mole of carbon weighs 12 grams and one mole of hydrogen weighs 1 gram. Therefore, one mole of CH2 weighs 12 + 1 + 1 = 14 grams.

56 divided by 14 = 4

Therefore, you need 4 "moles" of CH2 to equal 56 grams of the unknown substance. To get the equivalent of 4 "moles" of CH2 you need one mole of C4H8.


Hope this helps :)
