Answer:

By repelling water, the tiny water striders stand on the water's surface and the captured airs allows them to float and move easily.  so number 2. Surface Tension.

Explanation:

The attraction between water molecules creates tension and a very delicate membrane. Water striders walk on this membrane. ... The legs have tiny hairs that repel water and capture air.

Answer:

Water striders use the high surface tension of water and long, hydrophobic legs to help them stay above water.

Hope this helps! (:

The average kinetic energy of 1 mole of a gas at -32 degrees Celsius is:
 
3.80 x 103 J

The relationship between volume and temperature of a gas, when pressure and moles of a gas are held constant, is: V*T = k.

FALSE

The relationship between moles and volume, when pressure and temperature of a gas are held constant, is: V/n = k. We could say then, that:
If the moles of gas are tripled, the volume must also triple.


 If the temperature and volume of a gas are held constant, an increase in pressure would most likely be caused by an increase in the number of moles of gas.

TRUE

If the vapor pressure of a liquid is less than the atmospheric pressure, the liquid will not boil.

TRUE

Write half reactions and the overall reaction occurred during discharging of acid lead battery.
Gre4nikov [31]
When  battery  discharge / delivering  current  the  lead  at  the  anode  is  oxidized
that  is ;
pb---->pb+  2e-
since  the  lead  ions  are  in  presence  of  aquous   sulfate  in  insoluble  lead  sulfate  precipitate onto the  electrode
the  overall   reaction  at  the  anode  is  therefore
Pb +  SO4^2-  ---> PbSO4  +  2e-

The specific heat of a substance is the heat that must be absorbed to increase the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 deg
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise one gram of a particular substance by one degree Celsius or Kelvin.

Formula for calculating specific heat is the amount of heat absorbed or released = mass x specific heat x change in temperature.

= m * Cp * delta T
