Crank3 years ago

solution:

1yd^3=(0.9144m)^3\\
therefore,\\
150yd^3=150yd^3\times\frac{(0.9144m)^3}{1yd^3}\\
=114.68m^3
convert m^3 to cm^3by the conversion factor as follow\\
1m^3=(100)cm^3\\
114.68m^3=114.68\times\frac{(100cm)3}{1m^3}\\
convert cm^3 to mL by the conversion factor as follow\\
1cm^3=1mL\\
114.68\times10^6cm^3=114.68\times10^6cm^3\times\frac{1mL}{1cm^3}\\
=114.68\times10^6mL\\
convert mL to g by the conversion factor as follow\\
1mL=1g\\therefore,\\
114.68\times10^6mL=114.68\times10^6mL\times\frac{1g}{1mL}\\
114.68\times10^6g\\
convert g to kg the conversion factor as follow\\
1g=10^-3kg\\
therefore,\\
114.68\times10^6=114.68\times10^6g\times\frac{10^-3kg}{1g}\\
=114.68\times10^3kg\\
convert kg to Ib by the conversion factor as follow\\
1kg=2.2Ib\\
therefore,\\
114.68\times10^3kg=114.68\times10^3kg\times\frac{2.2Ib}{1kg}\\
=2.52\times10^5Ib

Elaborate on the classification of aluminum. A) Aluminum is a noble gas and has a full valence electron shell, is chemically non
scZoUnD [109]
The correct option is (B) <span>Aluminum is a metal and is shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.

Since Aluminium is in group 13, and all the elements in group 13 are either metals or metalloids(Boron). Hence we are left with option (B) and (D). Boron is the only metalloid in group 13 and aluminium is a metal(not a metalloid); therefore, we are left with only one option which is Option (B). And Aluminium is </span>shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.<span>

How do you reduce friction
choli [55]
To reduce friction between two surfaces, you have to
make the surfaces smoother. 

The best way to do that is to introduce a fluid between them,
like grease, oil, or air.

A process with a negative change in enthalpy and a negative change in entropy will generally be:________
valentina_108 [34]

A process with a negative change in enthalpy and a negative change in entropy will generally be: <u>spontaneous</u>.

<h3>Gibbs free energy:</h3>

Since the Gibbs free energy is a parameter that tells us whether a chemical reaction is spontaneous (Gibbs free energy less than 0) or nonspontaneous (Gibbs free energy greater than 0) in this situation, we can describe it mathematically as:

                                      ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Therefore, any process with a negative change in enthalpy and a positive change in entropy will be spontaneous. If the enthalpy and the entropy are both negative, the subtraction becomes always negative, for which the Gibbs free energy is also negative.

One of the most crucial thermodynamic functions for the characterization of a system is the Gibbs free energy. It influences results like the voltage of an electrochemical cell and the equilibrium constant for a reversible reaction, among others.
