ASHA 777 [7]2 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

1. diffusion is a physical process when there is random motion of molecules by which there is a net flow of matter from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

2. Osmosis is the diffusion of water where molecules of water move passively (without energy) from high concentration to low concentration. eg: the way water rushes into a sponge.

3. Active transport moves particles from low to higher concentration. The difference between diffusion and active transport is diffusion does not require energy (eg: oxygen moving from the airways to the lungs - there is very little oxygen in the lungs but lots in the air).  whereas active transport does require energy (eg: when plants take up nutrients from the soil. The soil does not have a large concentration of nutrients, but the plant does)

Which is a characteristic of nuclear fusion but NOT nuclear fission?
lisabon 2012 [21]
The answer is B. is the energy source of stars.

Fission is the type of nuclear energy simulated on Earth, as it is the one used to generate electricity. Fusion, on the other hand, is much more complicated to achieve because it requires extremely hot temperatures compared to fission. Fusion involves the combination of two hydrogen atoms to make helium, which releases a lot of energy. Stars such as the sun, exhibit fusion with its very hot temperature and abundant source of hydrogen.

Pick the correct statement for the following isotope: a. 42Ca 42 is the mass number and 20 is the atomic number. b. 42 is the nu
kramer

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To label an element correctly using a combination of the symbol, mass number and atomic number furnishes some important information about the element.

We can obtain these information from the element provided that correct labeling of the element is presented. Firstly, after writing the symbol of the element, the atomic number is placed as a subscript on the left while the mass number of the atomic mass is placed as a superscript on the same left.

Looking at the question asked, we have the element symbol in the correct position as Ca, with 42 also in the correct position which is the mass number. The third number which is 20 is thus the atomic number of the element.

What is the primary cause of diffusion? some substances can dissolve in solvents heat added to a substance random internal motio
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

random internal motion of atoms and molecule

Explanation:

The primary cause of diffusion is the random internal motion of atoms and molecules.

Randomness of atoms and molecules results in diffusion.

  • Diffusion is the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to that of lower concentration.
  • Substances often tend to spread out over the concentration gradient.
  • Therefore, they have this propensity to be randomized.
