Answer:

The correct answer is <u><em>E) a material consisting of only one type of atom .</em></u>

Explanation:

A chemical element is called a substance that is formed by atoms of the same type whose nuclei have the same number of protons, called atomic number.

It is considered a chemical element to the simplest form of a substance, therefore it is that substance that cannot be decomposed by a chemical reaction into simpler ones.

The elements combine to form compounds. The chemical behavior of the elements is related to the structure of the nucleus and the configuration of its electrons.

The chemical elements and their characteristics are summarized in what is called a periodic table of the elements, where the elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number.

Finally, <u><em>the correct answer is E) a material consisting of only one type of atom .</em></u>

In a certain industrial process involving a heterogeneous catalyst, the volume of the catalyst (in the shape of a sphere) is 10.

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

We know that the

reaction catalyzing power of a catalyst ∝ surface area exposed by it

Given

volume V1= 10 cm^3

⇒ $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3= 10$

hence r= 1.545 cm

also, surface area S1= $4\pi r^2$

now when the sphere is broken down into 8 smaller spheres

S2= 8×4πr'^2

now, equating V1 and V2 ( as the volume must remain same )

$\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=8\times\frac{4}{3} \pi r'^3$

and solving we get

r'= r/2

therefore, S2= $8\times4\pi\frac{r}{2}^2$

S2= $2\times4\pi r^2$

S2= 2S1

hence the correct answer is

. The second run has twice the surface area.

How to find valency?

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

ork out which of the displacement (S), initial velocity (U), acceleration (A) and time (T) you have to solve for final velocity (V).

If you have U, A and T, use V = U + AT.

If you have S, U and T, use V = 2(S/T) - U.

If you have S, U and A, use V = SQRT(U2 + 2AS)
