A. the height of the cactus plants

Explanation:

The dependent variable in this experiment designed to test this hypothesis is the height of the cactus plants.

In a hypothesis statement, we can always deduce the dependent and independent variables.

  • Independent variables do not rely on other variables. They are usually the cause of the phenomenon observed in an experiment. In this experiment, it is the rainfall on the cactus plant.
  • Dependent variable is that variable that relies on the independent variable. It is usually the effect of changes in independent variable.
  • The height of the cactus plant depends on the amount of rainfall in an area.

What is an example of equilibrium?
frez [133]

A good example of equilibrium would be the mixing of oil and water in a closed container.

<h3>What is chemical equilibrium?</h3>

Chemical equilibrium is a condition in which the concentrations of components of a chemical reaction remain unchanged and have no tendency to change.

Of all the options, the only one where the concentrations of the component reactants cannot change is a mixture containing oil and water in a closed container.

Oil and water are immiscible and thus, their concentrations remain constant.

2Ni(OH) → Ni2O + H2O <br> How many moles of water forms from 4.20 mol of nickel (I) hydroxide?
butalik [34]

Answer:

2.1 moles of water formed.

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of water formed = ?

Moles of Ni(OH) = 4.20 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Ni(OH)    →  Ni₂O + H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of Ni(OH)  with water.

             Ni(OH)           :            H₂O

                2                 :              1

              4.20             :            1/2×4.20 = 2.1 mol

2.1 moles of water formed.

Which gas will effuse at the rate closest At a particular pressure and temperature, nitrogen gas effuses at the rate of 79mLs. U
Contact [7]

Answer : The rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide gas is 52 mL/s.

Solution :

According to the Graham's law, the rate of effusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of gas.

R\propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{M}}

or,

(\frac{R_1}{R_2})=\sqrt{\frac{M_2}{M_1}}       ..........(1)

where,

R_1 = rate of effusion of nitrogen gas = 79mL/s

R_2 = rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide gas = ?

M_1 = molar mass of nitrogen gas  = 28 g/mole

M_2 = molar mass of sulfur dioxide gas = 64 g/mole

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

(\frac{79mL/s}{R_2})=\sqrt{\frac{64g/mole}{28g/mole}}

R_2=52mL/s

Therefore, the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide gas is 52 mL/s.

Two categories of compounds are
crimeas [40]

Answer is: (3) ionic and molecular.

Ionic compounds are made of ions held together with ionic bonds.

Ionic bond forms when a cation transfers its extra electron to an anion who needs it.  

For example compound magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) has ionic bond (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).  

Magnesium (metal) transfers two electrons (became positive cation) to chlorine (became negative anion).  

Molecular compounds are made up of molecules whose atoms are connected with covalent bonds.

Covalent bond is bond between nonmetals.  

For example, molecule carbon monoxide CO has covalent bond.

Carbon (C) and oxygen (O) are nonmetals.  

Carbon atom and oxygen atom are connected by a triple bond (six shared electrons in three bonding molecular orbitals) that is formed of two covalent bonds and one dative covalent bond.

What’s the pattern of a Gas and Plasma?!!
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Gas turns into plasma when heat or energy is added to it. The atoms that make up the gas start to lose their electrons and become positively charged ions. The lost electrons are then able to float freely. This process is called ionization..

Hope it help!
