Answer/Explanation:

A lightning rod is a metal rod that is used to dislocate where lighting hits. Lightning is going to hit the closest point that it has been attracted too. So, the lightning rod was invented to attract lighting to something less potentially dangerous. Instead of hitting a building causing fires and collapsing, it takes the bolt so that nothing else has to.

Four ice cubes at exactly 0 ∘c with a total mass of 52.5 g are combined with 160 g of water at 90 ∘c in an insulated container.
horrorfan [7]
Heat gained by ice cubes would be equal to the - heat lost by warm water 

The moles of ice is: 50.5 g / 18.0 g/mol = 2.81 mol 

Heat required to melt all of the ice is equal to: 2.81 mol X 6.02 kJ/mol = 16.9 kJ = 16890 J 

Now, know whether the warm water will still be above 0C when it loses this much heat:
-1690 J = 160 g (4.184 J/gC) (Delta T) Delta T = -25C 

In order to solve for the final temperature, going back to include warming of the melted ice to a final temperature: 

q(ice/water) = - q(warm water) 

moles (Delta Hf) + m c (T2-T1) = - m c (T2-T1) 

50.5 g / 18.0 g/mol = 2.81 mol 

2.81 mol X 6.02 kJ/mol + 50.5g (4.184 J/gC) (T2-0) = -160g (4.184 J/gC) ( T2-80) 

16916 + 211.3T2 = -669.4 T2 + 53555 

36639 = 880.7 T2 

T2 = 41.6 C

Phantasy [73]

The density of the stone is 5 g/cm³.

Mass = 25 g

Volume = 7 mL – 2 mL = 5 mL = 5 cm³

Density = mass/volume = 25 g/5 cm³ = 5 g/cm³

describe how carbon skeletons may vary and explain how this variation contibutes to the diveristy and complecity of organic mole
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Carbon is a highly covalent element due to the presence of four valence electrons in its outermost shell. This helps it bond covalently with other elements in various ways.

Carbon is known to be the backbone for most compounds. The carbon backbone vary in length and in the mode of bonding such as having the ability to from straight, branched, rings, double or triple bond which contibutes to the diversity and complexity of organic molecules.
