Albert Einstein showed in one of his papers in 1905 that Brownian motion could be explained by assuming that matter is made up of tiny particles. His paper predicted how the motion should look like and also allowed for the calculation of the mass of a single molecule. Current evidence includes: 1. Individual ions (atoms with an electric charge) can be manipulated using electric and magnetic fields. 2. Elevation maps can now be made that show bumps caused by individual atoms.

In an isolated system:
ipn [44]

Answer:

isolated system (plural isolated systems) (physics) A system that does not interact with its surroundings. Depending on context this may mean that its total energy and/or momentum stay constant.

Explanation:

An isolated system is a thermodynamic system that cannot exchange either energy or matter outside the boundaries of the system. ... The system may be enclosed such that neither energy nor mass may enter or exit.

is there both?

2. 2. Consider the following reaction occurring in a closed chemical system. Assume that this reaction is at equilibrium and tha
Alika [10]

1. This is a combustion reaction.<span>

<span>Combustion reactions can happen with the </span>presence of O</span>₂ <span>gas. O₂<span> reacts with another element or compound and </span></span>oxidize<span> it. Here ethanol reacts with O₂<span> and produces </span></span>CO₂ and H₂O as products.<span> <span>Combustion is also called as </span></span>burning. <span>

2. Reaction will shift to right. <span>

</span><span>If more CH</span>₃CH₂OH is added to the system, then the</span> amount of CH₃CH₂OH will increase.<span> <span>Then the equilibrium in the system </span></span>will be broken.<span> <span>To make the equilibrium again, the </span></span>added CH₃CH₂OH should be removed.<span> To do that system will consume more CH</span>₃CH₂<span>OH to make products which helps to decrease the amount of ethanol. Hence, the reaction will shift to right.<span>

3. The reaction will shift to right.</span><span>

</span><span>If the water is extracted from the system, the </span>amount of water will decrease. <span>That means the </span>amount of products decrease. Then the system will try to gain equilibrium by increasing the water. To increase water the forward reaction should be enhanced. <span>Hence, the</span> reaction will shift to right.<span>

4. The reaction will shift to right.

</span><span>This is an </span>exothermic reaction <span>since it </span>produces heat. If the produced heat is removed, then the system will be cold. To maintain the temperature, system has to increase the amount of heat produced. Then, the forward reaction should be enhanced. Hence, the reaction will shift to right.<span>

5. The Le Chatelier's principle.

</span>Le Chatelier's principle says if a condition changes in a system which was in an equilibrium state, the system will try to gain equilibrium by correcting the changed condition back to normal. Most of industries which make chemicals use this principle</span>
