<u>Answer</u>:

A solid will melt at the temperature at which the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The melting point is the state at which "a substance changes its temperature from a solid to liquid". At the melting point temperature, there is an equilibrium between the both the solid and the liquid phase. When the solid particle is heated by increasing the temperature the particle in the solid vibrate quickly and it absorbs kinetic energy.

It leads to the breaking of the organisation of particle in between the solid and that leads to the melting of solid. Thus, at the melting point, the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.

The isotope \left.\begin{array}{r}212 \\ 83\end{array}\right? Bi has a half-life of 1.01 yr. What mass (in mg) of a 2.00-mg samp

anyanavicka [17]

Half-life is the length of time it takes for half of the radioactive atoms of a specific radionuclide to decay. A good rule of thumb is that, after seven half-lives, you will have less than one percent of the original amount of radiation.

half-life, in radioactivity, the interval of time required for one-half of the atomic nuclei of a radioactive sample to decay (change spontaneously into other nuclear species by emitting particles and energy), or, equivalently, the time interval required for the number of disintegrations per second of a radioactive.

<h3>What affects the half-life of an isotope?</h3>

Since the chemical bonding between atoms involves the deformation of atomic electron wavefunctions, the radioactive half-life of an atom can depend on how it is bonded to other atoms. Simply by changing the neighboring atoms that are bonded to a radioactive isotope, we can change its half-life.

The solid product from reaction of sulfuric acid with sucrose is?

Mama L [17]

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {QUESTION:}}}$

The solid product from reaction of sulfuric acid with sucrose is?

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {ANSWER:}}}$

Concentrated <u>sulfuric acid</u> is added to sucrose forming carbon, steam and <u>sulfur</u> dioxide.

<h3>RELATED TO THE QUESTION </h3>

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {What \: is \: solid?:}}}$

<u>Solid is one of the four fundamental states of matter</u>. The molecules in a solid are closely packed together and contain the least amount of kinetic energy.
<u>A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface</u>.

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {What \: is \: sulfur \: acid?}}}$

<u>Sulfuric acid or sulphuric acid, also known as oil of vitriol, is a mineral acid composed of the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen</u>, with molecular formula H₂SO₄. It is a colorless, odorless and viscous liquid that is miscible with water at all concentrations.

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt{What \: is \: sucrose?}}}$

<u>Sucrose is common sugar. It is a disaccharide</u>, a molecule composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. Sucrose is produced naturally in plants, from which table sugar is refined. It has the molecular formula C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁.

If your lawn is 21.0 ft wide and 20.0 ft long, and each square foot of lawn accumulates 1350 new snow flakes every minute. How m

klemol [59]

Let us start with the total area of the lawn. Area= width x length, ie, 21 x 20 = 420 sq. ft. Snow flakes per square foot per minute = 1350 So Snow flakes for 420 sq.feet per minute = 420 x 1350 = 567000. Snow flakes for 1 hour = 567000 x 60 = 34020000 (60 minutes) Weight of 34020000 snow flakes = 34020000 x 1.60 = 54432000mg. To convert it into kilograms, divide this number by 1000000 (1 kilogram = 1000000 milligrams) Thus 54432000/1000000 = 54.432 kilograms or 54 kilograms and 432 grams.

What chemical is in plastic bottle and how it affect humans?

charle [14.2K]

BPA, or bisphenol A, is in most plastics and it is toxic to humans because it can bind to the estrogen hormone and greatly alter your body's natural functions from there. It can also bind to your thyroid hormone.
