Yes they can have origins in nature. A bunch of the elements on the periodic table are chemicals and this are basic substances and cannot be man made.

How can professionals increase their levels of stress as a result of personal work habits?
zmey [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Developing work ethics won't lower your stress although it may make your conscience a little happier. Not B

Not C. Procrastinating just makes things harder. The mountain of things to do is not diminishing at all and your stress knows it.

Not D. Although D is the second best answer, setting goals is not really an action. It is a plan for how to work. But it is not work. Still having a goal is useful.

The answer is A. Just keep hitting what you have to do at a steady pace.

rusting of steel can be prevented by coating the steel with a layer of zinc. Explain, in terms of electron transfer, why steal d
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Wouldn't rust because zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron and will therefore oxidize first.

Explanation:

This process whereby rusting of steel is prevented by coating the steel with a layer of zinc is known as galvanization.

Now, in this process, the steel object will be coated in a thin layer of zinc. This coating will prevent oxygen and water from reaching the underneath metal since the zinc will also act as a sacrificial metal.

Now, Zinc is used because it has a lower reduction potential than iron and thus it will get easily more oxidized than iron. Which means the zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron.

Also, since zinc has a lower reduction potential, it is therefore the more active metal. Thus, even if the zinc coating is scratched and the steel is exposed to moist air, the zinc will still get to oxidize before the iron.

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. How long will it take for 112. 5 g of a 120. 0-g sample to decay radioactively? 5,730
vichka [17]

The time taken by Carbon-14 to decay radioactively from 120g to 112.5g is 22,920 years.

<h3>How do we calculate the total time of decay?</h3>

Time required for the whole radioactive decay of any substance will be calculated by using the below link:

T = (n)(t), where

  • t = half life time = 5730 years
  • n = number of half life required for the decay

Initial mass of Carbon-14 = 120g

Final mass of Carbon-14 = 112.5g

Left mass = 120 - 112 = 7.5g

Number of required half life for this will be:

  • 1: 120 → 60
  • 2: 60 → 30
  • 3: 30 → 15
  • 4: 15 → 7.5

4 half lives are required, now on putting values we get

T = (4)(5730) = 22,920 years

Hence required time for the decay is 22,920 years.

Discuss the different observations that you would record during an investigation into the energy transformations of a lamp that
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

See the answer below, please.

Explanation:

Take as an example a light bulb inside a lamp to illuminate a room. When you plug it in a plug and turn it on, light is generated. More precisely, heat (Joule effect) is produced inside the lamp by its internal filament (conductive material) when it passes through the electrical energy, generated by the friction of the atoms that are inside it when it encounters a resistance.

Nickel + oxygen = nickel oxide. What is the balanced redox reaction?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:

2 Ni0 - 4 e- → 2 NiII

(oxidation)

2 O0 + 4 e- → 2 O-II

(reduction)

Ni is a reducing agent, O2 is an oxidizing agent.
