Answer:

Explanation:

The saying “Ignorance is bliss” originates in Thomas Gray’s poem “Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College” (1742). The quote goes: “Where ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise.” Face it: you were better off not knowing that, weren’t you? Generally speaking, ignorance is a detestable state of mind. The more knowledge you have, the better equipped you are to deal with life. But ignorance itself doesn’t equal stupidity. For instance, I view myself as someone who is smart enough to realize his huge capacity for stupidity. I know there are massive gaps in my cultural and general knowledge. I would define my intellectual state as, at times, unaware. But who am I kidding? In some areas of life, I’m just plain ignorant, even if not by choice.

Decide whether each sentence is simple, compound, or complex. I took the dog for a long walk. The dog ran happily through the pa

baherus [9]

Answer:

I took the dog for a long walk. - simple

The dog ran happily through the park because he had been stuck in the house all day. - complex

He stopped to smell several flowers, and he chased a rabbit. - compound

Explanation:

A simple sentence is constituted of a only one independent clause. It has a subject and a predicate, and it expresses a complete thought. That is what we have in "I took the dog for a long walk."

A complex sentence is formed by joining two clauses, one independent and the other dependent/subordinate. The dependent clause needs the independent one to make sense, since it does not express a complete thought on its own. That is what we have in "The dog ran happily through the park because he had been stuck in the house all day." The subordinating conjunction "because" introduces the dependent clause.

A compound sentence is formed by joining two independent clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction - for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. That is what happens in "He stopped to smell several flowers, and he chased a rabbit." In this case, the conjunction is "and".

A 10.0-gram sample of nitrogen is at STP. Which property will increase when the sample is cooled to 72 K at standard pressure?

Komok [63]

Assuming nitrogen is an ideal gas, we use the relation PV=nRT tp predict what will happen to the system. From the equation, nR/P is constant. So, if the sample is cooled to 72K then volume would decrease. This decrease in volume would affect the density of the substance. It would increase its density. Therefore, the answer would be density.
