Answer:

Magnesium oxide

Explanation:

When magnesium reacts with oxygen, the magnesium atoms donate electrons to O2 molecules and thereby reduce the oxygen. Magnesium therefore acts as a reducing agent in this reaction. The O2 molecules, on the other hand, gain electrons from magnesium atoms and thereby oxidize the magnesium.

Pls give me three examples of stimuli that will make you run fast

photoshop1234 [79]

Stimuli that can make you run faster:
1. sound: if you hear a wild animal running after you that will make you run faster
2. vision: viewing something scary or unpleasant acts as a stimuli to make you run faster
3. pain: pain as a stimulus will make you run faster as it your bodies way of protecting you from harm
Hope this helps good luck <span />

You can obtain a rough estimate of the size of a molecule with the following simple experiment: Let a droplet of oil spread out

mina [271]

Answer:

The diameter of the oil molecule is $4.4674\times 10^{-8} cm$ .

Explanation:

Mass of the oil drop = $m=9.00\times 10^{-7} kg$

Density of the oil drop = $d=918 kg/m^3$

Volume of the oil drop: v

$d=\frac{m}{v}$

$v=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{9.00\times 10^{-7} kg}{918 kg/m^3}$

Thickness of the oil drop is 1 molecule thick.So, let the thickness of the drop or diameter of the molecule be x.

Radius of the oil drop on the water surface,r = 41.8 cm = 0.418 m

1 cm = 0.01 m

Surface of the sphere is given as: a = $4\pi r^2$

$a=4\times 3.14\times (0.418 m)^2=2.1945 m^2$

Volume of the oil drop = v = Area × thickness

$\frac{9.00\times 10^{-7} kg}{918 kg/m^3}=2.1945 m^2\times x$

$x= 4.4674\times 10^{-10} m= 4.4674\times 10^{-8} cm$

The thickness of the oil drop is $4.4674\times 10^{-8} cm$ and so is the diameter of the molecule.

If a substance changes from one phase to another, is it still same substance? why

shutvik [7]

When you boil water, you aren't changing the elements. You're just making water vapor. However, when you burn paper, it becomes carbon (mostly). So physical changes will not change the substance, only chemical changes will.

5. an atom that has lost or gained an electron and has become charged

densk [106]

Answer:

It would be compound.

Explanation:

It is this way because if it adds another proton it becomes more positive that nuetral, and if you add an electron it just makes the atom more dense. That is why the answer is compound. Hope this helped :)

Find the ph of a buffer that consists of 0.18 m ch3nh2 and 0.73 m ch3nh3cl (pkb of ch3nh2 = 3.35)?

ozzi

Hello!

First, we need to determine the pKa of the base. It can be found applying the following equation:

$pKa=14-pKb=14-3,35=10,65$

Now, we can apply the Henderson-Hasselbach's equation in the following way:

$pH=pKa+log( \frac{[CH_3NH_2]}{[CH_3NH_3Cl]} )=10,65+log( \frac{0,18M}{0,73M} )=10,04$

So, the pH of this buffer solution is 10,04

Have a nice day!
