Answer:

All of the following statements are true regarding wood versus metal except:

c) Under sustained loads wood stops to deform

Explanation:

Wood is known to deform under stress.  It undergoes warping, thereby, losing its original straight shape when its moisture unevenly dries up.  Even concrete deforms under long-time loads.  Similarly, wood, under sustained loads, experiences faster deformation than it ordinarily warps.  To prevent further wood deformation, it must be treated, and its moisture dried up evenly.

Alborosie
Answer : S)  33.2 °C

Explanation : When the equal amounts of gases are placed in identical containers but subjected to different temperatures would exert pressure in different amount which will in turn increase the rate of collision between the molecules of gas.

So, when the temperature is increased to maximum greater amount of force would be exerted and the gas molecules will collide with a larger force. Hence the answer will be as the highest temperature i.e. 33.2 °C

Answer:

Atoms are indivisible

I had a hard time finding this out.

Explanation: Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe all matter in terms of atoms and their properties. Dalton based his theory on the law of conservation of mass and the law of constant composition. The first part of his theory states that all matter is made of atoms, which are indivisible.

Which liquid has the strongest base?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

water

Acidity and basicity are usually determined in a solvent. The strongest acid in the solvent is always the conjugate acid of the solvent and the strongest base is the conjugate base of the solvent. So, in water, the strongest acid is H3O+ and the strongest base is OH- (conjugate base of water).
