Oxygen relights a glowing splint. What does this tell you about the chemical properties of oxygen, compared to nitrogen?

Answer:

Explanation:

A glowing splint exposed to pure oxygen will burst into flames

because the process of combustion will be greatly accelerated. The

glowing splint exists in a normal atmosphere comprised of

approximately 20% oxygen. Think of the effect of fanning over

glowing embers in order to restart a fire. You are 'pushing' more

oxygen over the embers. Exposing a glowing splint to 100% oxygen

has an even greater effect.

Which type of chemical bond holds the atoms together within a molecule of watermelon
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Water (H2O) can be called a molecule or a compound because it is made of hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms. There are two main types of chemical bonds that hold atoms together: covalent and ionic/electrovalent bonds. Atoms that share electrons in a chemical bond have covalent bonds.

What percentage of caterpillars original energy is available to the hawk?
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The percentage of caterpillars original energy available to the hawk is  = 0.6%.

Explanation:

the answer above is given by; 24 kcal/4000 kcal x 100

Caterpillars are the larval stage of members of the order Lepidoptera. As with most common names, the application of the word is arbitrary, since the larvae of sawflies are commonly called caterpillars as well. Both lepidopteran and symphytan larvae have eruciform body shapes.

Hawks are a group of medium-sized diurnal birds of prey of the family Accipitridae. Hawks are widely distributed and vary greatly in size. The subfamily Accipitrinae includes goshawks, sparrowhawks, sharp-shinned hawks and others. This subfamily are mainly woodland birds with long tails and high visual acuity.

Question 22 (Essay Worth 3 points) (02.01 HC) A prediction of the theory of Plate Tectonics is that new volcanoes can form at th
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

What would be the expected result of the experiment?

For the drawing of the map part, the scientific will find that effectively, a very large number of volcanoes are located near the meeting points of tectonic plates. The volcanoes that aren't now at the edge of the plate were most probably at the moment of their formation, and were moved away by the movement of the plate.

But I doubt the scientist would be able to identify many new volcanoes, because the creation of a volcano isn't something happening overnight.

How would you interpret the results if the scientist observes no new volcanic activity?

I would say that does NOT invalidate the theory because the observation period is extremely short.  10 years is an insignificant amount of time geologically speaking... the study would have to be conducted over at least 1,000 years to maybe have some results at all.   Just imagine how many volcanoes there would be if a new one was created every 10 years along the side of a tectonic plate.

What is a single celled organism that have no nucleus and can either benefit or harm the body
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Bacteria

Explanation:

Bacteria have no true nucleus because it's a prokaryote. It couldn't have been a virus because all naturally occurring viruses are pathogenic unless treated by radiation.

We have two types of bacteria,

  1. Pathogenic
  2. Commensals

Pathogenic bacteria will definitely cause disease. Commensals, however, have don't harm us and have the ability to help us.

Eg: Flora (bacteria) in our intestines produce vitamin K and most of the vitamin B complex. They also compete with the pathogenic bacteria that you might've ingested and don't allow them to increase to the number that can cause disease.
