Expansion

Explanation:

Expansion is the change is size of a body with increasing temperature and tension.

Bridges are built of iron. Iron thermally expands in the presence of increased temperature during the day. The length of the iron will increase by simple fractions. At night, when temperature drops, the bar returns back to its initial position.

  • The allowance for expansion of the metal is made in order to prevent tension within the structure.
  • Not doing this will cause the material to break since there is no free space for the bar to change shape.

What are the characteristics of a continental drift?
Eduardwww [97]

Continental drift was a theory that explained how continents shift position on Earth's surface. Set forth in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, a geophysicist and meteorologist, continental drift also explained why look-alike animal and plant fossils, and similar rock formations, are found on different continents.

Given the initial rate data for the reaction A + B –––> C, determine the rate expression for the reaction.
umka21 [38]

Answer:

B) Δ[C]/Δt = 3,60x10⁻² M⁻¹s⁻¹ [A] [B]

Explanation:

For the reaction A + B → C

The formula for rate of reaction is:

Δ[C]/Δt = k [A] [B]

As you have [A], [B] and Δ[C]/Δt information you can multiply [A] times [B] and take this value as X and Δ[C]/Δt as Y. The slope of this lineal regression will be k.

Thus, you must obtain:

y = 3,60x10⁻² X

Thus, rate of reaction is:

B) Δ[C]/Δt = 3,60x10⁻² M⁻¹s⁻¹ [A] [B]

I hope it helps!

Which of these functional groups is found in all amino acids? -NH2 -OH =O -PO42-
melisa1 [442]

Answer : The correct option is, -NH_2

Explanation :

Amino acid : The acid that contains two functional groups that are carboxylic group, -COOH and ammine group, -NH_2.

When the two or more that two amino acids join together with the help of peptide bond, they produces polypeptide chain or protein.

The bond present between the two amino acid is called a peptide bond.

The peptide bond is a chemical bond that is formed between the two molecules when the nitrogen of one amino acid react with the carbon of another amino acid by releasing a water molecule. This is a dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction.

From this we conclude that, only two functional groups carboxylic group, -COOH and ammine group, -NH_2 are present in all amino acids.

Hence, the correct option is, -NH_2
