A location along stream where most erosions occur

Chemistry

Answer:

At a stream's headwaters, often high in the mountains, gradients are steep. The stream moves fast and does lots of work eroding the stream bed.As a stream moves into lower areas, the gradient is not as steep. Now the stream does more work eroding the edges of its banks.

hope that helps bby<3

Oxycodone (C18H21NO4), a narcotic analgesic, is a weak base with pKb = 5.47. Calculate the pH of a .00500 M oxycodone solution.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

pH = 10.11

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since it is possible to realize that this base is able to acquire one hydrogen atom from the water:

$C_{18}H_{21}NO_4+H_2O\rightleftharpoons C_{18}H_{21}NO_4H^+OH^-$

We can therefore set up the corresponding equilibrium expression:

$Kb=\frac{[C_{18}H_{21}NO_4H^+][OH^-]}{[C_{18}H_{21}NO_4]}$

Which can be written in terms of the reaction extent, $x$ :

$Kb=\frac{x^2}{0.00500M-x}=3.39x10^{-6}$

Thus, by solving for $x$ we obtain:

$x_1=-0.000132M\\\\x_2=0.0001285M$

However, since negative solutions are now allowed, we infer the correct $x$ is 0.0001285 M; thus, the pOH can be computed:

$pOH=-log(x)=-log(0.0001285)=3.89$

And finally the pH:

$pH=14-pOH=14-3.89\\\\pH=10.11$

Best regards!

Which of the following observations indicates that there is a small, dense, positively charged part in the center of an atom?

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Rutherford deduced that the atomic nucleus was positively charged because the alpha particles that he fired at the metal foils were positively charged, and like charges repel. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons, so they are positively charged. In Rutherford's experiments most of the alpha particles passed straight through the foil without being deflected. However, occasionally the alpha particles were deflected in their paths, and rarely the alpha particles were deflected backward at a 180 degree angle.

Since like charges repel, Rutherford concluded that the cause of the deflections of the positively charged alpha particles had to be something within the atom that was also positively charged. Rutherford concluded from his metal foil experiments that most of an atom is empty space with a tiny, dense, positively charged nucleus at the center that contains most of the mass of the atom.

Using two different instruments I measured the length of my foot to be 27 centimeters and 27.00 centimeters. Explain the differe

Sophie [7]

Answer:

As you used two diferent instruments, one is more sensitive than the other.

Explanation:

The sensitivity of an instrument is the minimum amount of magnitude that can be differentiate a measurement system.

In method A, you got 27 cm, so if in method B, you got 27.00, method B is more sensitive. It's like saying that one system measures more than the other
