Answer:

The correct answer is - D. Freezing point depression.

Explanation:

When rock salt is spread over snow-covered icy roads, it generates a liquid layer over it by melting from the surface thereby lowering or depression in the freezing point below the ice.

Therefore, due to this liquid layer comes into the contact with the ice present on the road and causes other ice to melts. This keeps on decreasing the volume of the ice on the road therefore, rock salts spread on the roads during a snowstorm.

The table below shows two types of electromagnetic waves and three random applications of electromagnetic waves.
Reptile [31]
Correct Answer is 1 i.e. Gamma rays—2 and radio waves—3

Reason: 
1) In a hypernova, star<span> as similar to </span>nuclear fusion<span> converts lighter elements into heavy elements. If fusion is not capable of generating enough pressure to counteract gravity, star immediately collapses to form a </span>black hole<span>. During this process, energy will be released, along the axis of rotation to form </span>gamma-ray burst. Such gamma-ray burst was first detected using <span>Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Thus, gamma-ray is capable of providing information of gravity fields.

2) Radiowaves are capable of inducing transitions that requires less energies. These transition includes nuclear excitation and electron excitation (in rotational energy level). Depending upon the value to Jmax, it is possible to determine the temperature and </span><span>heat released by astronomical objects</span><span>

A chemist has some 40% acid solution, some 60% acid solution, and a wholebunch of free time. How many liters of each should be u
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

30 Liters of 40% acid solution and 10 L of 60% acid solution is needed.

Explanation:

Let volume of the 40% acid solution be x.

Let volume of the 60% acid solution be y.

Volume of solution formed after mixing both solution = 40 L

x + y = 40 L..[1]

Volume of acid 40% solution = 40% of x= 0.4x

Volume of acid 60% solution = 60% of y= 0.6y

Volume of acid formed = 45% of 40 L = \frac{45}{100}\times 40=18L

0.4x+0.6y=18 L..[2]

Solving [1] and [2]

x = 30 L  ,   y = 10 L

30 Liters of 40% acid solution and 10 L of 60% acid solution is needed.
