Explain how the four states of matter differ at the molecular level

1 answer:

4 0

In solids, strong bonds between atoms/molecules keep them in place. There is not much movement of the individual particals. If you add heat, your substance will go through the different states of matter because the energy you put in is enough to break these bonds between particles. Plasma is a bit different. These are just gas particles BUT they have a charge (that can move from one particle to another) which causes electricity.

Identify both the cellular structure that assembles these proteins and the kinds of molecules that are used as the building bloc

Blizzard [7]

The basic building blocks of proteins are the amino acids. There are 20 amino acids in a protein that we consume and the protein in our body. These amino acids link together to form large molecules. The 20 amino acids are divided into two groups called the essential and non-essential amino acids.

HELP PLEASE! :(

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Part 1: W = 116 Y = 163

Part 2: Since 232 is the mailing point of 2 kg then you would divide 232 by 2 to get the melting point for 1 kg, the same with Y.

A 420-N force acts on a 400-N object, and the force is from the north. In which direction will the object move?

garik1379 [7]

Answer: The object will move in the South direction.

Explanation: We are given an object of 400 N and force acting on it is 420 N from the north direction, it means the force is acting towards south.

The object will move in the direction of the net force, which is south direction.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Perform the calculation and record the answer with the correct number of significant figures.

kotykmax [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A. (6.5-6.10)/3.19

B. (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

Answer:

For A: The answer becomes 0.1

For B: The answer becomes 0.4884

Explanation:

Significant figures are defined as the figures present in a number that expresses the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy.

Rules for the identification of significant figures:

Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 664, 6.64 and 66.4 all have three significant figures.
All zeros between the integers are always significant. For example: 5018, 5.018 and 50.18 all have four significant figures.
All zeros preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.00058 has two significant figures.
All zeros after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 2.500, 25.00 and 250.0 all have four significant figures.
All zeroes used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant. For example: 10000 has one significant figure.

Rule applied for addition and subtraction:

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Rule applied for multiplication and division:

In case of multiplication and division, the number of significant digits is taken from the value which has least precise significant digits

For A: (6.5-6.10)/3.19

This a a problem of subtraction and division.

First, the subtraction is carried out.

$\Rightarow \frac{6.5-6.10}{3.19}=\frac{0.4}{3.19}$

Here, the least precise number after decimal was 1.

$\Rightarrow \frac{0.4}{3.19}=0.125$

Here, the least precise number of significant digit is 1. So, the answer becomes 0.1

For B: (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

This a a problem of subtraction, addition and division.

First, the subtraction and addition is carried out.

$\Rightarow \frac{34.123+9.60}{98.7654-9.249}=\frac{43.723}{89.5164}=\frac{43.72}{89.516}$

Here, the least precise number after decimal in addition are 2 and in subtraction are 3

$\Rightarrow \frac{43.72}{89.516}=0.48840$

Here, the least precise number of significant digit are 4. So, the answer becomes 0.4884
