Chlorine has the smallest atomic radius since the atomic radius decreases as you travel to the right and up

In the process of peppering the question with those forty (40 !) un-necessary quotation marks, you neglected to actually show us the illustration. So we have no information to describe the adjacent positions, and we're not able to come up with any answer to the question.

The specific heat of substance A is greater than that of substance B. Both A and B are at the same initial temperature when equa

Sonja [21]

Answer:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)$

For this case, if we try to find the final temperature of A and B, we see that we will obtain an expression in terms of specific heats and masses, from the information given we know the relationship between specific heats, but we don't know the relationship that exists among the masses, then the best option for this case is:

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

Explanation:

For this case we know the following info:

$c_{pA} > c_{pB}$

Where c means specific heat for the substance A and B.

We also know that the initial temperatures for both sustances are equal:

$T_{iA}= T_{iB}$

We assume that we don't have melting or vaporization in the 2 substances. So we just have presence of sensible heat given by this formula:

$Q = m c_p \Delta T$

And for this case we know that Both A and B are at the same initial temperature when equal amounts of energy are added to them, so then we have this:

$Q_A = Q_B$

And if we replace the formula for sensible heat we got:

$m_A c_{pA} \Delta T_A = m_B c_{pB} \Delta T_B$

And if we replace for the change of the temperature we got:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T_{iA}) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T_{iB})$

And since $T_{iA}= T_{iB}= T$ we have this:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)$

For this case, if we try to find the final temperature of A and B, we see that we will obtain an expression in terms of specific heats and masses, from the information given we know the relationship between specific heats, but we don't know the relationship that exists among the masses, then the best option for this case is:

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

A 200.0 kg piano is elevated by a crane to a height of 10.0 meters above a sidewalk. If the rope holding the piano breaks, what

Nitella [24]

All that business about the crane and the rope and the falling
is only there to confuse us.

The piano ended up 5 meters above the ground.

   Potential energy = (mass) (gravity) (height)

   = (200 kg) (9.81 m/s²) (5 m)

   = (200 · 9.81 · 5) (kg-m²/s²)

   = 9,810 joules .

Why are all bodies in nature electrically neutral? short answer please

DENIUS [597]

Answer: because they have equal numbers of protons

Explanation: Atoms are electrically neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). If an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion

Define relative density

weeeeeb [17]

Hello There!

Relative density is another word for specific gravity. Relative density is comparing the density of one thing to the density of another. Most of the time, you look at the density of water so we look at the density of an object relative to the density of water.
