The moon would have appeared more vividly and brightly due to the absence of light pollution and smog

Answer:

It would have looked bigger. Active volcanoes might have been visible on it.

Explanation:

The most widely accepted theory of the Moon formation is Giant Impact hypothesis which states that a giant Mars sized celestial body: Theia hit planet Earth and the material that ejected out of the Earth coalesced and formed Moon. The Moon as observed today is moving away at a rate of around 4 cm per year which means that in ancient times it would have looked much bigger in the sky.

Frozen lava has been seen on the Lunar surface which are called as Maria (dark spots). In ancient times we could have witnessed those active volcanoes.

_____ are isotopes that emit radiation because they have unstable nuclei.

alexandr1967 [171]

The correct answer among the choices given is option B. Radioisotopes are isotopes that emit radiation because they have unstable nuclei. These are radioactive isotopes of an element. They are defined as atoms that contain an unstable combination of neutrons and protons.

At 2000°C, the equilibrium constant for the reaction below is Kc = 4.10 ´ 10–4 . If 0.600 moles of NO is placed in a 1.0-L react

erastova [34]

Answer:

At equilibrium, the concentration of $N_{2 (g)}$ is going to be 0.30M

Explanation:

We first need the reaction.

With the information given we can assume that is:

$N_{2 (g)}$ + $O_{2 (g)}$ ⇄ 2 $NO_{(g)}$

If there is placed 0.600 moles of NO in a 1.0-L vessel, we have a initial concentration of 0.60 M NO; and no $N_{2 (g)}$ nor $O_{2 (g)}$ present. Immediately, $N_{2 (g)}$ and $O_{2 (g)}$ are going to be produced until equilibrium is reached.

By the ICE (initial, change, equilibrium) analysis:

I: [ $N_{2 (g)}$ ]=0 ; [ $O_{2 (g)}$ ]= 0 ; [ $NO_{(g)}$ ]=0.60M

C: [ $N_{2 (g)}$ ]=+x ; [ $O_{2 (g)}$ ]= +x ; [ $NO_{(g)}$ ]=-2x

E: [ $N_{2 (g)}$ ]=0+x ; [ $O_{2 (g)}$ ]= 0+x ; [ $NO_{(g)}$ ]=0.60-2x

Now we can use the constant information:

$K_{c}=\frac{[products]^{stoichiometric coefficient} }{[reactants]^{stoichiometric coefficient} }$

$4.10* 10^{-4} =\frac{(0.60-2x)^{2}}{(x)*(x)}$

$4.10* 10^{-4}$ = $\frac{(0.60-2x)^{2}}{x^{2} }$

$4.10* 10^{-4} * x^{2}$ = $(0.60-2x)^{2}}$

$\sqrt{4.10* 10^{-4} * x^{2}}$ = $\sqrt{(0.60-2x)^{2}}}$

$0.0202 x =0.60 - 2x$

$2x+0.0202x=0.60$

$x=\frac{0.60}{2.0202}$ $= 0.30$

At equilibrium, the concentration of $N_{2 (g)}$ is going to be 0.30M

in their mechanism of action, a difference between lipid-soluble and water-soluble hormones is that _____.

LenKa [72]

<span>In their mechanism of action, a difference between lipid-soluble and water-soluble hormones is that </span>lipid-soluble hormones diffuse into the cell's plasma membrane to access protein receptors, while water-soluble hormones bind to protein receptors on the plasma membrane without diffusion.

Examples of lipid-soluble hormones are steroids. Examples of water-soluble hormones are polypeptides.
