Metalloids have properties of both metals and non-metals. Some of the metalloids, such as silicon and germanium, are useful in semi-conductors. This property makes metalloids useful in electronic components. Some allotropes of elements show more pronounced metal, metalloid or non-metal behavior than others.

Hope this helps! ;)

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Given :

Human blood should have around 1.04 kg/L platelets.

A blood sample of 4.01 milliliters is collected from a patient to be analyzed for a platelet count.

To Find :

The expected mass in grams of platelets in the blood sample.

Solution :

1 L of human blood contains 1.04 kg of platelets.

So, amount of platelets is 1 ml blood is :

=\dfrac{1.04}{1000}\ kg\\\\= \dfrac{1.04\times 1000}{1000}\ gram\\\\= 1.04 \ gram

Mass of platelets in 4.01 ml blood is :

m = 1.04\times 4.01\ gram\\\\m = 4.1704\ gram

Hence, this is the required solution.

_____ is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a gas. Density Enthalpy Pressure Temperature
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

  • Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of a gas.
  • Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object because of its motion. As an object absorbs heat the particles move faster so the average kinetic energy and therefore the temperature increases.
  • When the temperature of a body or an object is increased and hence the heat, there is more movement or vibration of particles which translates to more kinetic energy.

Answer:

Objective

Optics

For an optical instrument, the aperture is the diameter of the objective lens (refracting telescope) or the primary mirror (reflecting telescope). The larger the aperture, the more light the telescope can gather, and the fainter the limiting magnitude of the instrument.
