Answer:

Explanation:

One of the properties of a liquid is that, <u>it's particles move freely (not tightly packed)</u> hence the reason for <u>it's free flowing (no definite shape)</u> when shaken in a container, unlike a solid whose <u>particles are tightly packed with restricted/no movement</u> and hence the reason for it's compactness and it's definite shape.

When a plastic solid (whose particle is tightly packed and have a restricted movement/no movement) is placed near a heat source, <u>it's particles gains energy in the process and starts to move (though slightly free) and become less tightly packed</u> hence the reason it is observed that plastic solids near a heat source melts.

From the above, it can be deduced that a liquid and a plastic solid near a heat source <u>have there particles move freely (and not tightly packed) hence making the two substances flow freely with no definite shape.</u>

Does solubility have any unit​
Contact [7]

Answer:

Solubility may be stated in various units of concentration such as molarity, molality, mole fraction, mole ratio, mass (solute) per volume (solvent) and other units. The extent of solubility ranges widely, from infinitely soluble (without limit) ( miscible) such as ethanol in water, to poorly soluble, such as silver chloride in water.

What resources should the scientist use to research water pollution?
Alla [95]
A scientist needs to check several parameters before coming to a conclusion about the amount of water pollution. The scientists needs to check the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water, temperature of the water, the clarity of the water, the PH level of the water and also the amount of bacteria present in the water. There may be other criteria’s, but the mentioned ones are enough to gauge the amount of pollution in the water. Scientists often takes fish and aquatic plants from the water to be tested to check the amount of pollution indirectly affecting these species.

1) Look at the graph. What is the independent variable and the dependent variable?
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Independent Variable = Years

Dependent Variable = Number of Mobiles phone owners

Explanation:

Independent variables are plotted on x-axis and the dependent variables are plotted on y-axis.

In given graph the "Years" belong to x-axis hence, years are the independent variables.

Also, "Number of Mobile phones owners" belong to y-axis hence, this number is the dependent variable.

Which tiny, round “factory” puts together protein and is often found in the endoplasmic reticulum?
hodyreva [135]
<span>In the cytoplasm, ribsomal RNA (rRNA), a type of RNA, and protein combine to form a nucleoprotein called a ribosome. The ribosome serves as the site and carries the enzymes necessary for protein synthesis. They are often takes the shape of small round particles attached in the endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosome attaches itself to m-RNA and provides the stabilizing structure to hold all substances in position as the protein is synthesized. Several ribosomes may be attached to a single RNA at any time.  <span> </span></span>
