Answer:
D
Explanation:
I think they would design a airplane with this new metal first because they have to find the right balance for this new type of metal. They can't just sell a airplane with a new metal that has a different weight immediately they need to test it and design it first.
Answer: The activation energy is 10 kJ and the reaction is exothermic.
Explanation: Exothermic reactions are those in which heat is released and thus the energy of products is less than the energy of reactants.
Endothermic reactions are those in which heat is absorbed and thus the energy of products is more than the energy of reactants.
Activation energy is the extra amount of energy required by the reactants to cross the energy barrier to convert to products.
Given : Energy of reactants = 40kJ
Energy of activation: (50-40)=10 kJ
Energy of products = 50 kJ
Energy of products = 15 kJ
Thus Energy of products (15kJ) < Energy of reactants(40kJ), the reaction is exothermic as energy has been lost to surroundings in the form of heat.

Answer: ice is less dense than liquid water. If ice was more dense, Earth would freeze.
Explanation: There are many reasons why life on Earth depends on the characteristics of water. One could discuss hydrogen bonds and its role as a solvent, but the unusual property of water is is the change in density with change in temperature. Water is densest at 4 degC, which is why ice floats - it is less dense than cold water (it melts quickly in warm water, so density isn’t impotant at higher temperatures). Most liquids are less dense than the solid, frozen form. If this was the case with water, any ice that formed would sink, and sease would freeze from the bottom up. Furthermore, the lowest layers would be insulated and would not all melt in summer. Thus over time, the seas would become a thin layer of liquid water at best, over solid ice. Life could not develop without liquid seas. In addition, ice is reflective, reducing the amount of sunlight absorbed, further reducing temperatures. Without ocean circulation, polar areas would be even colder, and there would be no rain.
