Answer:

Hope this helps u!!

Explanation:

A useful application of half-lives is radioactive dating. This has to do with figuring out the age of ancient things. If you could watch a single atom of a radioactive isotope, U-238, for example, you wouldn't be able to predict when that particular atom might decay. :) :)

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{6 L}}

Explanation:

We can use Gay-Lussac's Law of Combining Volumes to solve this problem.

Gases at the same temperature and pressure react in the same ratios as their coefficients in the balanced equation.

1. Write the chemical equation.

Ratio:  1 L     3 L

           N₂ + 3H₂ ⟶ 2NH₃  

V/L:      2

2. Calculate the volume of H₂.

According to Gay-Lussac, 3 L of H₂ react with 1 L of N₂.

Then, the conversion factor is (3 L H₂/1 L N₂).

\text{Volume of H}_{2} = \text{2 L N}_{2} \times \dfrac{ \text{3 L H}_{2} }{\text{1 L N}_{2}}= \textbf{6 L H}_{2}\\\text{You need $\large \boxed{\textbf{6 L}}$ of hydrogen,}

break down food into energy

Explanation:

Hereditary information is contained in genes and genes are found inside the cell. This implies that the cell contains hereditary information of organisms. This hereditary information is passed on during cell division from parent to daughter cells.

Metabolism occurs in the cells. The cells use oxygen to break down food materials to produce energy.

Describe Chemical and physical changes of ice water placed in the refrigerator
Talja [164]
So in a chemical change, the product would loses its properties, would form new products and would not be easily reversed.


In a physical change, the products WILL NOT lose any of their properties, WILL NOT form any new products and WILL be easily reversed.

Talking about Water turning to ice I would say it’s all about physical change and not chemical change.
But I would suggest you to either make a research about it or ask your teacher :))

What kind of reaction happens when two compounds switch elements? Apex
maw [93]

Answer:

A replacement reaction occurs when elements switch places in compounds. This type of reaction involves ions. Generally, more reactive elements replace less reactive elements. A single replacement reaction occurs when one element replaces another element in one compound.

Explanation:

Just figured it out!
