The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
In the 1800s, a popular belief known as vitalism stated that life processes could not be explained by the laws of physics and chemistry,and were instead dictated by an independent life force. Which discovery most likely caused scientists to revise this hypothesis regarding the origin of life on Earth?
a. that inorganic compounds existed within live organisms
b. that organic compounds could be synthesized in a laboratory
c. that RNA could serve as a template to synthesize DNA
d. that self-replicating molecules existed inside cells
Answer:
b. that organic compounds could be synthesized in a laboratory
Explanation:
Vitalism is the belief that "living organisms are fundamentally different from non-living entities because they contain some non-physical element or are governed by different principles than are inanimate things"(wikipedia).
This theory held that the molecules involved in life processes could not be synthesized in the laboratory.
All these were upturned after Fredrich Whöler's synthesis of urea in 1828. He was able to show that molecules involved in life process can also be synthesized in the laboratory. This gave rise to modern synthetic organic chemistry.
Answer:
the answer is three protons
Everything requires energy to move. If the desk is moving, then it has energy.
The formula of Aldehyde is represented by <span>C2H4O. It has two atoms of Carbon, four atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Aldehyde is an organic compound. It's organic because it contains carbon. It has a structure of R-CHO, that consists a carbonyl center bonded to R group and to hydrogen.</span>
Answer:
Answer E.
For a collision to be completely elastic, there must be NO LOSS in kinetic energy.
We can go through each answer choice:
A. Since the ball rebounds at half the initial speed, there is a loss in kinetic energy. This is NOT an elastic collision.
B. A collision involving sticking is an example of a perfectly INELASTIC collision. This is NOT an elastic collision.
C. A reduced speed indicates that there is a loss of kinetic energy. This is NOT elastic.
D. The balls traveling at half the speed after the collision indicates a loss of kinetic energy, making this collision NOT elastic.
E. This collision indicates an exchange of velocities, characteristic of an elastic collision. We can prove this:
Let:
m = mass of each ball
v = velocity
We have the initial kinetic energy as:
KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2KE=21mv2+0=21mv2
And the final as:
KE = 0 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2KE=0+21mv2=21mv2
