Chemistry
1 answer:
allochka39001 [22]3 years ago
7 0

False

Explanation:

Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves.

Mechanical waves are waves that requires a medium to propagate them.

  • A transverse wave is a wave that is propagated perpendicularly to its source.
  • An example is electromagnetic radiation.
  • A longitudinal wave is a wave that is directed parallel to their source.
  • Sound wave is a longitudinal wave.
  • It has series of rarefaction and compression along its travel path.
  • Rarefaction are areas of sparse particles.
  • Compression are areas with dense particles.

How many moles would be equal to 22.4 g of CO2?
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Number of moles = 0.51 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CO₂ = 22.4 g

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of CO₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol

by putting values,

Number of moles = 22.4 g/ 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.51 mol

Use Table 1: Analysis of Decay in the laboratory guide to answer this question: Scientists find a piece of wood that is thought
sashaice [31]
1/2=5750 years, 1/2(1/2)=1/4, (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/8, (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/6
4 halflives have passed so 4(5750)=23000 years since the tree was chopped down
1000000 atoms (1/2)=500000 atoms(1/2)=250000(1/2)=125000(1/2)=62500 atoms would remain in the wood after 4 halflives
Dinosaurs became extinct around 62 million years ago, so if 14C's half life has a value of 5750 years, it would be gone or in such small amounts that dating would be ineffective today.
As Potassium decays into Argon in 1.3 billion years, apart from volcanic activity, it would enable geologists to effectively date things that are really, really, really old.

How might cell division help multicellular organisms maintain and repair cells
Komok [63]
Because when the cells divide (resulting in more cells) the multicellular organism mantains its strong cells and when one cell is damaged the other cells compensate for that damaged cell.
