Answer:
1) Transition states are short-lived
Explanation:
Transition state theory explains the rates of elementary chemical reactions. It assumes a quasi-equilibrium between reactants and activated transition state complexes.
The following are the characteristics of transition states
- Instability
- Ill-defined
- High energy
- short-lived
The species that must collide for the reaction to occur are shown by the mechanism of reaction and not the balanced reaction itself
Intermediates are consumed in each step of the overall reaction, they are not short lived
From reliable sources in the internet, the half-live of carbon-14 is given to be 5,730 years. In a span of 10,000 to 12,000 years, there are almost or little more than 2 half-lives. Thus, there should be
A(t) = A(0)(1/2)^t
where t is the number of half-lives, in this case 2. Thus, only about 1/4 of the original amount will be left.
Answer:
See Below
Explanation:
Okay, I thinkkk what it is asking by what you summarzied for me issss:
They split the total time into four quarters. They then took (for the first quarter) the start time. Then when the first quarter ends and the second quarter starts is the "end" time.
They then subtract the start time of the second quarter from the end time of the first quarter.
I hope this helps, good luck! :D
Answer: Go to the harbor. When a ship sails off toward the horizon, it doesn't just get smaller and smaller until it's not visible anymore. Instead, the hull seems to sink below the horizon first, then the mast. When ships return from sea, the sequence is reversed: First the mast, then the hull, seem to rise over the horizon.
Climbing to a high point will allow you to be able to see farther if you go higher. If the Earth was flat, you'd be able to see the same distance no matter your elevation
Momentum is a product mass and velocity. If a certain object posses a kinetic energy, then it should have a momentum since it is moving which has a velocity. However, if the object is at rest and only has potential energy, then it would not have momentum. So, for the first question the answer would be yes, an object can have energy without having any momentum. For the second question, every object whether it is moving or at rest, possess some energy, potential for an object at rest and kinetic for an object that is moving. Thus, the answer would be no, an object having momentum would always have energy.
