Answer:
<em>a. The molecules of solid are closely packed together</em>
<em>b. particles are so close, hence a high density</em>
<em>c.rate of diffusion is slow due to strong force of attraction between molecules of solid.</em>
Explanation:
(a)The molecules of solids are very much packed together hence very hard to compress and the force of attraction between molecules is strong hence very hard to expand . For this reason solids occupy a definite volume.
b. Because the molecules of solid is more closer than those of liquid and gas. Solids have a much higher density, hence a higher relative density. Density = mass/volume. for solids a huge amount of mass occupies a low volume space. A low volume and huge mass will result in high density
c. The diffusion of solids is very slow due to the strong force of attraction between the molecules of solids. However this diffusion can be made faster by the application of heat. This will increase the kinetic energy of the solid molecules.
Explanation:
1 Kilocalories = 4,184 Joules
Answer:
1 mole of H2O is 18 grams (2 g H + 16 g Oxygen)
36 / 18 = 2
So 2 moles = 2 * 6.02E23 = 12.04E23 = 1.204E24
Answer:
5760 J
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass of block = 48 kg
Height (h) = 12 m
Gravitational field strength (g) = 10 N/Kg
Gravitational potential energy (PE) =?
The gravitational potential energy stored by the block can simply be obtained as follow:
PE = mgh
PE = 48 × 10 × 12
PE = 5760 J
Therefore, the gravitational potential energy stored by the block is 5760 J
Answer:
Describe three agricultural practices that led to increased soil erosion and how they create the problem?
Agricultural practices that increase the chances of erosion include Soil tillage, mowing, plowing, grazing e.t.c these exposes the soil and enables water run-off which allows erosion to take place
