Throughout most of its history, Florida has been under water. Portions of the Florida peninsula have been above or below sea level at least four times. As glaciers of ice in the north expanded and melted, the Florida peninsula emerged and submerged.

<span>When the sea level was lowest, the land area of Florida was much larger than it is now. The sea level was as much as 100 feet lower than at present. Florida�s west coastline was probably 100 miles further out. As the climate warmed, the glaciers melted. This raised the sea level and flooded the Florida peninsula. The sea level stood at least 100 to 150 feet above the present level. Florida probably consisted of islands.</span>

At room temperature, the surface tension of water is 72.0 mJ·m–2. What is the energy required to change a spherical drop of wate
Keith_Richards [23]
It is given that the surface area of sphere is 4 π r² and its volume is (4/3 π r³)
With a diameter of 1.2 mm you have a radius of 0.6 mm so the surface area about 4.5 mm² and the volume is about 0.9 mm³ 
The total surface energy of the original droplet is (4.5 x 10⁻⁶ m x 72) = 3.24 x 10⁻⁴mJ
The five smaller droplets need to have the same volume as the original so:
5 V = 0.9 mm³ so the volume of smaller sphere will equal 0.18 mm³
Since this smaller volume still have volume (4/3 π r³) so r = 0.35 mm
Each of the smaller droplets has a surface are = 1.54 mm² 
The surface energy of the 5 smaller droplet is then (5 x 1.54 x 10⁻⁶ m x 72) = 5.54 x 10⁻⁴ mJ
From this radius the surface energy of all smaller droplets is 5.54 x 10⁻⁴ and the difference in energy is (5.54 x 10⁻⁴) - (3.24 x 10⁻⁴) = 2.3 x 10⁻⁴ mJ
Therefore we need about 2.3 x 10⁻⁴ mJ of energy to change a spherical droplet of water of diameter 1.2 mm into 5 identical smaller droplets

Well, we might as well try a similar question. Magnesium metal reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas and an aque
Andrei [34K]

Answer: Magnesium Mg

Explanation:

Oxidization is the process by which a substance either gains oxygen or losses electrons.

The chemical reaction of the above is denoted by,

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Mg went from a 0 to a +2 state which would mean that it lost electrons.

It was therefore oxidized.

Please do react or comment if you need clarification or if the answer helped you. This can help other users as well. Thank you.
