As a result of the generator in a wind turbine breaking, the electricity would not be produced.

Generally, the wind turbines work on a very basic phenomenon, here the energy from the wind is used to turn two or three propeller-like blades around a rotor. After this rotor is associated with the main shaft that spins a generator to produce electricity. Therefore, if any of the element of the wind turbine breaks, there will be no electricity produced.

Answer:

C. If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false.

Explanation:

The burning of magnesium in air produces magnesium oxide as shown by the equation;

2Mg(s) + O2(g) -----> 2MgO(s)

The magnesium oxide solid is recovered as a white ash. This is a typical example of an oxidation reaction which is also a combustion reaction.

The reason has nothing at all to do with the assertion hence the answer given.

Magnesium oxide is basic just like the oxides of other metals and dissolves in water to yield an alkali.

When scientists use one of their five senses to gather information, they are A. making an observation. B. making an inference. C

Goshia [24]

A. making an observation.

Explanation:

When scientists use one of their five sense to gather information, they are simply making an observation.

Most physical properties of matter are studied using sense of taste, of feel, sight, hearing and smell.

Observation is the act of making a measurement or studying.
It helps to investigate particular phenomenon in nature.
Most observations made with our senses are usually qualitative in nature.
They cannot be assigned values like quantitative ones.

Name each of the following species for the following acid-base reactions. (The equilibrium lies to the right in each case, i.e.,

DaniilM [7]

Answer: a) $H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O$

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) $CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-$

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) $NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-$

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

The species accepting a proton is considered as a base and after accepting a proton, it forms a conjugate acid.

The species losing a proton is considered as an acid and after loosing a proton, it forms a conjugate base

For the given chemical equation:

a) $H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O$

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) $CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-$

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) $NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-$

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion
