Products such as antifreeze are composed of organic compounds that are classified as <em>alcohols</em>. (a)

Maybe those other classes of chemicals also lower the freezing temperature of water, just like alcohol does.  I don't know.  But alcohol is what's used to make anti-freeze.  I'm guessing alcohol must be cheaper, less toxic, and less corrosive inside the engines' cooling systems than any of that other stuff is.

You rapidly swirl a mixture of substances with different densities
borishaifa [10]
Having different densities being swirled rapidly will cause sedimentation. Sedimentation is the segmentation of the mixture creating layers of particles of these different densities. The process of rapid swirling is called differential centrifugation. An example use of this method is separation human blood into, red, platelet and white blood cells.

80N force ;
lutik1710 [3]

The power of the engine is 320 W.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Power may be defined as the rate of doing work (or) work done per unit time. One unit of energy is used to do the one unit of work.

                          Power = Work done / Time taken

Given, Force = 80 N,    height = 5 m , final velocity = 4 m/s

To calculate the power, we must know the time taken.

To find the time, use the distance and speed formula which is given by

                              Time = Distance / speed

Here distance = 5 m and speed = 4 m/s

                              Time = 5 / 4 = 1.25 s.

Now,          Power = work done / time

                              = (F * d) / t  = (80 * 5) / 1.25

                  Power = 320 W.

The standard unit of power is watt (W) which is joule per second.

A type of Lead (Pb) ion has a + 4 oxidation number. Sulfur (S) has a — 2 oxidation number. What would be the chemical formula fo
serious [3.7K]

Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is PbS_2

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here metal lead is having an oxidation state of +4 called as Pb^{4+} cation and sulphur non metal has oxidation state of -2 called as S^{2-}. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral PbS_2

The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is PbS_2

A ball is dropped off the balcony of a hotel room and it takes 2.8s to fall to the ground . how high above the ground is the bal
RideAnS [48]

The height of the ball above the ground is 38.45 m

First we will calculate the velocity of the ball when it touch the ground by using first equation of motion

v=u+gt

v=0+9.81×2.8

v=27.468 m/s

now the height of the ground can be calculated by the formula

v=√2gh

27.468=√2×9.81×h

h=38.45 m

A sound wave with a frequency of 400 Hz is moving through a solid object. If the wavelength of the sound wave is 8 m, what is th
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

v = 3200 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the frequency of the sound wave is given as

f = 400 Hz

wavelength of the sound wave is given as

\lambda = 8 m

so now we have

speed = wavelength \times frequency

so we will have

v = (8m) \times (400 Hz)

v = 3200 m/s
