An insect would have a harder time walking on ethanol than it would water. Water has stronger intermolecular forces which leads to higher surface tension. The higher surface tension allows for the insect to be easily supported

Answer:
An insect would have an easier time walking on the surface of water than on the surface of ethanol.
Water’s stronger intermolecular forces lead to higher surface tension.
Higher surface tension allows water to support the insect.

Two substances, A and Z, are to be identified. Substance A can not be broken down by a chemical change. Substance Z can be broke
I am Lyosha [343]
The answer is 3). This is because elements are the simplest form of a substance, and cannot be broken down any further. Compounds on the other hand are much more complex than elements and can be broken down INTO elements. For example, Na, sodium, is an element and cannot be broken down further. H2O, water, is a compound and can be broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

Enter the atomic symbol, including mass number and atomic number, for iodine-130.
WINSTONCH [101]

<u>Answer:</u> The atomic symbol of the given element is _{53}^{130}\textrm{I}

<u>Explanation:</u>

The general isotopic representation of an element is given as:  _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents the atomic number of the element

A represents the mass number of the element

X represents the symbol of an element

For the given isotope: 130-iodine

Mass number = 130

Atomic number = 53

Hence, the atomic symbol of the given element is _{53}^{130}\textrm{I}

What will happen if a peeled banana is put on a hotplate? Will it undergo a physical or a chemical change?
FinnZ [79.3K]
I would say physical, because a physical change is affecting the form of a chemical substance, but not it's chemical makeup.
