How might society have been most likely impacted if Nikola Tesla, the inventor of AC technology, had not become a scientist?
Nonamiya [84]
Cars might not be as insulated and as safe  because of the need to get cooler air into the vehicle, and im not fully sure but refrigerators would still run on ice to cool food. Houses wouldnt be as insulated from heat so when winter came around you would be colder than normal  <span />

All of the alkali earth metals, Group 2, have two valence electrons. Which of these would represent the oxidation number of the
chubhunter [2.5K]
Since Group 2 alkali earth metals have 2 valence electrons, they tend to lose those 2 when forming ionic bonds. And the Loss of Electrons = Oxidation (L.E.O. for short). Therefore this group, including Mg and Ca, have an oxidation of [+2].
So the correct answer is C) +2

When designing an engineering solution, certain criteria and constraints must be considered. Criteria are the features of the de
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The criteria listed in order of importance are;

1) To be inflated in the event of a collision in order to protect the occupants of the front of the vehicle

2) To be able to withstand the load of the breaking force of the occupants in the front seat of the vehicle during a collision

3) To be relatively tough so as to resist being torn on impact with a sharp object

The constraints listed in order of importance are;

1) How is the model design able to sense a collision that requires the airbag to be inflated

2) The uncertainty of the load the airbag will withstand upon collision

3) The possible hazard that could be caused by the gas used to inflate the airbag

4) The usage/interaction tendency between the vehicle occupant and the airbag system

Explanation:

In order to produce an effective design, it is important to be able to foresee the possible deficiencies of an idea so as to be able to mitigate the problems before an actual incident happens.

In a 51.0-g aqueous solution of methanol ch4o the mole fraction of methanol is 0.270. what is the mass of each component?
gladu [14]
Mole fraction<span> is another way of expressing the concentration of a solution or mixture. It is equal to the </span>moles<span> of one component divided by the total </span><span>moles.

mass CH4O = 0.270 (51) = 13.77 g methanol

water = 51 - 13.77 = 37.23 g water

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
