Drugs are substances that change a person's mental or physical state. They can affect the way your brain works, how you feel and behave, your understanding and your senses. This makes them unpredictable and dangerous, especially for young people. The effects of drugs are different for each person and drug.

Nistu is cooking rice in a pot. When she leaves the pot on the stove for a while, the temperature of the rice increases. What ha
Mila [183]

Answer:

Their average kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of the rice molecules increases as the pot is left on the cooking stove.

Heat is transferred to the pot by conduction from the heat source. The heat is then transferred to the rice in the cooking pot by convection.

  • As the water in the pot heats up.
  • The rice gains thermal energy.
  • This causes the molecules of the rice particles to start vibrating.
  • As the molecules vibrate about their fixed position, their thermal energy continues to increase.
  • Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed by the rice increases with time and this actually cooks the food.

Why is a cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane more stable thanits<br> trans isomer?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Explanation has been given below

Explanation:

  • In diaxial conformation of cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane, 4 gauche-butane interactions along with syn-diaxial interaction are present. Hence it readily gets converted to diequitorial conformation where no such gauche-butane interaction is present
  • In two possible conformations of trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane, 2 gauche-butane interactions are present in each of them.
  • Hence cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane exists almost exclusively in diequitorial form. But trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane has no such option.
  • Trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane experiences gauche butane interaction in each of the two conformations.
  • Therefore cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane is more stable than trans conformation

The graphic shows nutrient loss in millions of metric tons per year in the United States.
tia_tia [17]

Annually 126.0 million metric tons of soil nutrients are lost.                            

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • By the given data we can identify the loss of soil nutrients in the United States. In the first year, a total of 1.0 million soil nutrients are lost.
  • After that in the second year, the loss has doubled. 10.0 million metric tons of soil nutrients are lost.
  • In the third year, 16.0 million soil nutrients are lost in the US.
  • In the final year, 90.0 million soil nutrients are lost. It is a very huge loss. By calculating all the above , a total 126.0 million of soil nutrients in the US are lost annually.
