Answer:

d). A catalyst lowers the activation energy for a chemical reaction.

Explanation:

From the given choices, it is true that a catalyst lowers the activation energy for a chemical reaction.

The activation energy is the energy barrier that must be overcome before a chemical reaction can occur.

Some reactions have very high activation energy and would not occur without the introduction of a catalyst.

The catalyst brings the reactants into contact by removing the energy deficiency in the system.

If fluorine 20 undergoes beta decay , what will it become ?
e-lub [12.9K]
Fluorine 20 (F - Atomic number 9 and atomic mass 20). Firstly we need to know what is beta decay. Beta decay occurs when one neutron changes into a proton and an electron therefore the atomic mass will remain the same as even though we loose a neutron it is replaced by a proton, the atomic number is always raised by 1 when one beta decay occurs. The produced electron is shot out of the nucleus at an incredible speed. This speedy electron we call a beta particle.

Ok now the reaction.

 20       20        0
F  -> Ne    +     e
 9         10       -1

Remember the atomic number determines the nature of the element ( i.e what elemnt it is).
Hope this helps :).

DaniilM [7]
<span>Africa was more south and west and South America was more south and east of their current positions. I would say this would be because because South America and Africa used to be together in Gondwanaland millions of years ago and then apparently drifted apart as Wegener thought and then with the advent of plate tectonics it became apparent that the mid-Atlantic ridge runs between them and due to spreading along it Africa and S America got separated.</span>

What energy sources boil the water in geothermal energy
GREYUIT [131]
The steam rotates a turbine that activates a generator, which produces electricity. Many power plants still use fossil fuels to boil water for steam. Geothermal power plants, however, use steam produced from reservoirs of hot water found a couple of miles or more below the Earth's surface.
