Answer:
A. evaporation
Explanation:
Evaporation is a surface phenomenon as the molecules of the surface gets sufficient energy to overcome the force of attraction which will help in converting to the vapor phase.
Answer:
In D: 3J
Explanation:
Potential energy: Ep=mgh where m is the mass, h altitude.
In point A: h=20cm=0.2m
Epa=12=0.2×mg. Thus mg=12/0.2=60N
For point D: hd=5cm=0.05m
Epd=mg×0.05=60×0.05=3J
Answer:
The electron cloud
Explanation:
Metallic bonds result from interaction of positively charged metal ions with free valence electrons which now forms an electron cloud around the metal ions. Electrostatic interaction between the metal ions and the electron cloud holds the metal ions together in the metallic bond.
<h3><u>Answer and explanation;</u></h3>
-Rate of reaction is the speed at which the reactants are converted to products.
-Rate of reactions depends on a number of factors which includes<u>;</u>
- <em><u>Concentration of reactants</u></em>;<u><em> increasing the concentration of reactants</em></u> increases the rate of reaction.
- <u><em>Temperature;</em></u><u><em> </em></u>An <u><em>increase in temperature results to an increased rate of reaction.</em></u> Increase in temperature increases the kinetic energy of molecules thus the collision per unit time also increases and hence the rate of reaction increases.
- <u><em>Decreasing the size of particles of solid reactants</em></u> also increases the rate of reaction. This is because smaller particles increases the surface area on which more collisions can occur thus a faster rate of reaction.
- <em>Adding a catalyst also increases the rate of reaction.</em> This is because catalysts lower the activation energy of reactants, minimum energy require by reactants for the reaction to take place. This thus increases the rate of reaction.
