Explain how light elements and heavy elements formed differently.

Chemistry
1 answer:
slega [8]3 years ago
5 0

A star's energy comes from the combining of light elements into heavier elements in a process known as fusion, or "nuclear burning". It is generally believed that most of the elements in the universe heavier than helium are created, or synthesized, in stars when lighter nuclei fuse to make heavier nuclei.

Determine whether or not each ion contributes to water hardness.
Virty [35]

Answer: The ion that contribute to water hardness are:

--> a. Ca2+

--> b. (HCO)3^- and

--> c. Mg2+

While K+ DOES NOT contribute to water hardness.

Explanation:

WATER in chemistry is known as a universal solvent. This is so because it is polar in nature and dissolves most inorganic solutes and some polar organic solutes to form aqueous solutions. It is composed of elements such as hydrogen and oxygen in the combined ratio of 2:1.

Water is said to be HARD if it does not lather readily with soap. There are two types of water hardness:

--> Permanent hardness: This is mainly due to the presence of CALCIUM and MAGNESIUM ions in the form of soluble tetraoxosulphate(VI) and chlorides. These ions are removed by adding washing soda or caustic soda.

--> Temporary hardness: This is due to the presence of calcium HYDROGENTRIOXOCARBONATES. It can be removed by boiling and using slaked lime.

Therefore from the above given ions, Ca2+,(HCO)3^- and Mg2+ contributes to water hardness.

When particles that attract each other are allowed to come to together, energy is ______
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Released

Explanation:

When particles that attract each other come together, energy is usually released. The combination of the two particles is expected to result in a lower energy system. This lower energy system will be more stable than the different individual particles.

Hence, as this lower energy system is formed, the excess energy originally possessed by the particles is evolved hence energy is released when particles that attract each other are allowed to come together.

As much as 25 percent of the fruits and vegetables grown in Chinese agricultural regions rot before they can be transported the
gulaghasi [49]

C. Developing effective methods of food preservation

Explanation:

The development of effective methods of food preservation is a much more smaller and manageable problem that contributes to the complex problem.

The percentage of food rotting is not as a result of lack of an effective preservation technique as highlighted in the passage. It is due to the long distances of agricultural area from where the farms are located.

  • To cut the loss, efficient and rapid transportation techniques needs to be put in place to carry the fruits and vegetables to the area where they are needed.
  • This is the most complex problem that if solved can peg back food rot.
  • Additional measures should be put in place to preserve the food.

Other options does not address the subject matter
