A helium atom would never explode and is non-reactive, whereas a hydrogen atom is.

A helium atom is not flammable because it is one of the Inert Gasses; In contrast, Hydrogen is flammable. It reacts explosively with Oxygen

I think I am correct, but comment if I'm wrong :-)

The other answer here says nothing about the structures
of a Hydrogen atom or a Helium atom.

In "classical terms" ... where we picture an atom something
like a tiny tiny solar system ...

-- The nucleus of a Hydrogen atom is a single proton,
whereas the nucleus of a Helium atom is a tightly bound
bundle of four particles ... 2 protons and 2 neutrons.
This also means that every atom of Helium has 4 times
the mass of a Hydrogen atom.

-- In addition to the atomic nucleus, one electrically-neutral
atom of Hydrogen has an electron associated with the nucleus
and at some distance from it, whereas an electrically-neutral atom
of Helium has two electrons.

Effect of Solvent:

Naddik [55]

1. H2O- The water completely dissolved the salt.

Alcohol- The alcohol dissolved the salt slightly.

Glycerin-The salt has not dissolved at all.

2. Water

3. Like dissolve like basically works on the principle of polarity. It means the substances which possess similar chemical properties may dissolve in each other. For example, ethanol can be dissolved in water because both are polar in nature whereas non-polar molecules can be dissolved in non-polar solvents only.

4. Generally, a solute dissolves faster in a warmer solvent than it does in a cooler solvent because particles have more energy of movement. For example, if you add the same amount of sugar to a cup of hot tea and a cup of iced tea, the sugar will dissolve faster in the hot tea.

(Mass vs. Weight) HELP PLZ!!

Lina20 [59]

$\huge \boxed { \sf{Answers}}$

c. The weight of an object on the moon will be the same as its weight on Earth. It is false because the weight of an on the moon will be 1/6 th times its weight on Earth.
d. The weight of an object is its mass multiplied by the force of gravity. The statement is false because the formula of weight is mass × acceleration due to gravity, not force of gravity.
e. The mass and weight of an object are the same thing. The statement is false because mass means a body of matter. While weight of an object is its mass multiplied by the force of gravity.
f. The mass of an object is the force of gravity acting upon an object. It is false because it will be the weight of the object not mass.
So, the answers are c, d, e and f.

Hope you could understand.

If you have any query, feel free to ask.

(a) Calculate the absolute pressure at the bottom of a freshwater lake at a point whose depth is 30.0 m. Assume the density of t

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

(a) The absolute pressure at the bottom of the freshwater lake is 395.3 kPa

(b) The force exerted by the water on the window is 36101.5 N

Explanation:

(a)

The absolute pressure is given by the formula

$P = P_{o} + \rho gh$

Where $P$ is the absolute pressure

$P_{o}$ is the atmospheric pressure

$\rho$ is the density

$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity (Take $g = 9.8 m/s^{2}$ )

h is the height

From the question

h = 30.0 m

$\rho$ = 1.00 × 10³ kg/m³ = 1000 kg/m³

$P_{o}$ = 101.3 kPa = 101300 Pa

Using the formula

$P = P_{o} + \rho gh$

P = 101300 + (1000×9.8×30.0)

P = 101300 + 294000

P =395300 Pa

P = 395.3 kPa

Hence, the absolute pressure at the bottom of the freshwater lake is 395.3 kPa

(b)

For the force exerted

From

P = F/A

Where P is the pressure

F is the force

and A is the area

Then, F = P × A

Here, The area will be area of the window of the underwater vehicle.

Diameter of the circular window = 34.1 cm = 0.341 m

From Area = πD²/4

Then, A = π×(0.341)²/4 = 0.0913269 m²

Now,

From F = P × A

F = 395300 × 0.0913269

F = 36101.5 N

Hence, the force exerted by the water on the window is 36101.5 N

What quantities are related by Ohm's law? Check all that apply. voltage conductivity current resistance insulation

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer: Current, resistance and voltage are the quantities which are related by Ohm's law.

Explanation:

A law which states that electric current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance is called Ohm's law.

Mathematically, it is represented as follows.

$I = \frac{V}{R}$

where,

I = current

V = voltage

R = resistance

This means that the quantities related by Ohm's law include current, voltage and resistance.

Thus, we can conclude that current, resistance and voltage are the quantities which are related by Ohm's law.
