how can an xray image show differences between bone and soft tissues, such as muscles and lungs? How might the atoms that make u

p bones be different from the atoms that make up soft tissues?

Answer with Explanation:

1. An "x-ray image" shows the difference between the bones and soft tissues because the <em>bones appear white in color </em>while the <em>soft tissues appear gray in color.  </em>

2. The reason behind the difference in the appearance of bones and soft tissues on the x-ray film is their<em> density.</em> <u><em>Bones are denser than soft tissues</em></u>, which means that<em> its atoms are closely-knitted when compared to the soft tissues that are far apart from each other. </em>This allows the<em> </em><em>x-ray radiation to be absorbed by the bone </em>while <em>it passes through most of the soft tissues.</em>

This is the reason why pregnant women are advised not to undergo an x-ray examination because<u><em> the fetus is denser and it will surely absorb the x-ray radiation.</em></u>

What is the strongest type of intermolecular force between solute and solvent in each solution?
Elenna [48]

Hydrogen bonding is the strongest type of intermolecular force between solute and solvent.

<h3>What is Intermolecular Force ?</h3>

Intermolecular force is also called secondary force is the force of attraction between molecules. It acts between ions and atoms.

<h3>What is Hydrogen Bonding ?</h3>

Hydrogen bond is the attractive forces which binds the hydrogen atom of 1 molecule with electronegative atom of other molecule.

CH₃OCH₃ form hydrogen bonding and H₂O can also form hydrogen bonding.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that Hydrogen bonding is the strongest type of intermolecular force between solute and solvent.

Explain Newton's first law and create a real world scenario where the law is being used
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Newton's first law is a object at rest stays at rest unless acted by and outside force

Explanation:

say there is a ball sitting still it is at rest well say a kid comes over and kicks the ball the kid is the outside force that puts the ball in motion so the ball goes from sitting still to moving by the outside force also known as the kid

What is a key property of crystals?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: Crystals differ in physical properties, i.e., in hardness, cleavage, optical properties, heat conductivity, and electrical conductivity.

These properties are important since they sometimes determine the use to which the crystals are put in industry.

hope this helps :)

A student made a sketch of a potential energy diagram to represent an endothermic reaction.
loris [4]

Answer:

Incorrect

Explanation:

X is the reactants

Y is the products

In an endothermic reaction where energy is absorbed, the enthalpy the products (Y) is always higher than the enthalpy of the reactants (X).

Enthalpy change (∆H) = products (Y) - Reactants (X)

For an endothermic reaction, the ∆H value should be positive.

Enthalpy change

The diagram sketched by the students shows the opposite. The diagram shows that the enthalpy of the products (Y) is lower than the enthalpy of the reactants (X). This will give a negative value of ∆H.

It represents an exothermic reaction rather than endothermic.

Therefore, the student is incorrect.
