Explanation:

Diffusion is defined as the ability of a substance to spread readily. So, when molecules of a matter have high kinetic energy then they tend to spread readily because of more number of collisions.

In solids, molecules have strong intermolecular forces of attraction so they do not have spaces in between them. Hence, solids are not able to diffuse in solids.

Solids are able to diffuse into liquids as liquids have spaces in between their particles.

For example, NaCl is soluble in water.

Thus, we can conclude that the following apply to diffusion.

  • Solids can diffuse in liquids.
  • Liquids can diffuse in liquids.
  • It is the process of intermingling atoms from one substance into another.
  • A solid cannot diffuse in to another solid.

Correct answers are:

  • Solids can diffuse in liquids. Think of a sugar cube sitting at the bottom of a cup of tea.
  • Liquids can diffuse in liquids. Think of a drop of food colouring in water
  • It is the process of intermingling atoms from one substance into another.

The other answers are <em>incorrect</em> because:

  • Gas molecules are far apart and diffuse rapidly.  
  • A solid can diffuse into another solid. Pure lead can diffuse into gold, and pure gold can diffuse into lead.

Dinitrogen tetraoxide, N2O4, decomposes to nitrogen dioxide, NO2, in a first-order process. If k = 1.5 x 103 s-1 at 5 ºC and k =
Arada [10]

Answer:

The activation energy for the decomposition = 33813.28 J/mol

Explanation:

Using the expression,

\ln \dfrac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} =-\dfrac{E_{a}}{R} \left (\dfrac{1}{T_1}-\dfrac{1}{T_2} \right )

Wherem  

k_1\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_1

k_2\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_2

E_a is the activation energy

R is Gas constant having value = 8.314 J / K mol  

Thus, given that, E_a = ?

k_2=4.0\times 10^3s^{-1}

k_1=1.5\times 10^3s^{-1}  

T_1=5\ ^0C  

T_2=25\ ^0C  

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (5 + 273.15) K = 278.15 K  

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K  

T_1=278.15\ K

T_2=298.15\ K

So,

\ln \frac{1.5\times 10^3}{4.0\times 10^3}\:=-\frac{E_{a}}{8.314}\times \left(\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}\right)

E_a=-\ln \frac{1.5\times \:10^3}{4.0\times \:10^3}\:\times \frac{8.314}{\left(\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}\right)}

E_a=-\frac{8.314\ln \left(\frac{1.5\times \:10^3}{4\times \:10^3}\right)}{\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}}

E_a=-\frac{689483.53266 \ln \left(\frac{1.5}{4}\right)}{20}

E_a=33813.28\ J/mol

<u>The activation energy for the decomposition = 33813.28 J/mol</u>

1) How does the oxpecker benefit?
Bezzdna [24]

Explanation:

1)

Oxpeckers are a type of small bird that land on zebras and eat ticks and other parasites that live on the zebra's skin. The oxpeckers get food and the zebras get pest control. ... Tapeworms get food by eating the host's partly digested food, depriving the host of nutrients.

2)i. Fast Speed. Basically, we can process data that is stored in HDFS at lightning-fast speed with traditional SQL knowledge, by using Impala.

ii. No need to Move Data. ...

iii. Easy Access. ...

iv. Short Procedure. ...

v. File Format. ...

vi. Big Data. ...

vii. Relational model. ...

viii. Languages.

3) A parasite is an organism that lives on or in a host organism and gets its food from or at the expense of its host. There are three main classes of parasites that can cause disease in humans: protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites.

In the Internet, a hostname is a domain name assigned to a host computer. ... For example, en.wikipedia.org consists of a local hostname (en) and the domain name wikipedia.org. This kind of hostname is translated into an IP address via the local hosts file, or the Domain Name System (DNS) resolver.

4) Usually, although parasites harm their hosts, it is in the parasite's best interest not to kill the host, because it relies on the host's body and body functions, such as digestion or blood circulation, to live. Some parasitic animals attack plants.

5)The pollen sticks to the hummingbird and as the hummingbird goes to another cardinal flower for food the pollen is spread. This would qualify as a mutual relationship because both of the organisms benefit from the relationship. ... These two organisms have a relationship that is known as mutualism.

6)According to Campbell, moose populations are highest in areas 40 years after a major wildfire. But habitat loss is not the only probable cause of moose decline. Tiny ticks also could be a big problem. ... Without deep snow, then predators like wolves and mountain lions have an advantage over moose.”

Deforestation Led to Decline

The reasons why wolves have seen their population decimated mainly due to the diminishing forests in North America, where many of the wolves are found. Wolves were able to live in and survive in such an environment.
