The physical world around us behaves as it does partly because it’s made of a huge number of tiny molecules, each behaving rando

mly. In the 1800’s, the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell imagined that seemingly non-random things would happen on a random basis in our real world. The fastest-moving molecules would occasionally all find themselves in one part of a water glass and begin to boil, while the slower ones, left to themselves for a bit, would freeze elsewhere in the glass. Or, at some point, all the molecules in a room would randomly be moving in just one direction, rather than every which way. The term associated with such weird hypothetical scenarios is “Maxwell’s demon.” Explain why you think we don’t see weird things like this happen, on a random basis in real life. Imagine this randomly weird world for a minute. Describe something that would make it very difficult (or at least interesting) to live in a “Maxwell’s demon” world.

1. Weird things like the one described above do not happen on a ramdom basis becuause molecules usually move within any enclosure in a ramdom manner. Thus, it is not possible for some types of particles to aggregate in one point while other types of molecule aggreagate in another point. Based on the kinetic energy that is available for each particle, each particle will move random
through the available space, colliding with one another and with the wall of container.

2. It will be a difficult thing to live in a Maxwell' demon world because, things will happen unpredictably and one will never know what to expect next because anything can happen at anytime. For instance, if one is drinking a glass of water, some of the particles of the water may just decide to aggregate to one part of the cup and start boiling. So, for someone who is taking a glass of water, the water may start boiling right inside his mouth when he is drinking, that will be a bad experience. When one is driving a car, the petrol particles may just decide to freeze up when one is busy speeding on the highway; that can cause a very serious accident. Thus, a world where the Maxwell law operates will be a chaotic world.

If the following weights have masses of 2, 4, 6 and 8 kg,
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

8 kg mass

Explanation:

As we can see in the image the weight of mass 8 kgs has a large surface area as compared to the surface area of other masses. In general, it has been observed that a wide surface area has more surface particle for heat conduction. Hence, the rate of heat transfer is directly proportional to the surface area of heat conducting surface. Thus, the larger the surface area, the faster is the rate of heat conduction.

Hence, weight of mass 8Kg wil transfer heat a fast rate.

QUESTION 7
Lera25 [3.4K]
Answer:
it’s quite simple.
The newton force in a aerodynamic space which could lead to a catastrophic entanglement will be added to the physical quantum molecular structure then subtracted by its opposite, inter dimensional indispensable aerobic activity, then finally multiplied by the sum which was subtracted by the addition to then divide the sum of it all with the solution of the multiplication which would equal to the answer.

Why is it unnecessary to include an aluminum trihalide in electrophilic aromatic bromination reaction of acetanilide wih molecul
Helen [10]
Many electrophilic aromatic halogenations require the presence of an aluminum trihalide as a catalyst. We generally acetylated the amino group as protection. Now, this acetanilide can be brominated at Ortho or para position. An atom that is attached to an aromatic system usually hydrogen is replaced by an electrophile is an organic reaction which is called Electrophilic aromatic substitution. There are what you called important electrophilic aromatic substitutions they are aromatic nitration, aromatic sulfonation, aromatic halogenation and acylation and alkylating Friedel-Crafts reaction. Aromatic bromination is an electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS) reaction, which will require benzene to act as a nucleophile to acquire an electrophile. Therefore, any directing groups that activate the ring will make it react more quickly with respect to aromatic bromination. Acetanilide is a moderately-activated ring <span>having a decent EWG.</span>

How many molecules of ammonia are contained in 10.4 moles of ammonia, NH3?
Crank

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{6.26 \times 10^{24} \ molecules \ NH_3}\\\\"

Explanation:

1-mole molecules as per Avogadro number= 6.02 \times 10^{23} \ molecules\\\\

1-mole NH_3 \to 6.02 \times 10^{23} \ molecules\\\\

10.4 \ moles \ of \ \ NH_3 :

\to \frac{ 6.02 \times 10^{23} \ molecules }{ 1 \ mole\ NH_3}  \times 10.4 \ mole \ NH_3\\\\ \to 6.02 \times 10^{23} \ molecules   \times 10.4\\\\\to 62.608 \times 10^{23} \ molecules \\\\\to 6.26 \times 10^{24} \ molecules \ NH_3\\\\
