Read the selection from the section "Molecules In Motion." The molecules in the hot soup are traveling faster overall than they

did before the soup was heated. Conversely, the molecules in an ice cube are moving more slowly. Why did the author use the word "conversely"?

Answer: The author used the word "conversely" because the first statement he made is in CONTRAST to the second statement he made.

Explanation:

Matter is made up of atoms or molecules that are in constant motion. The motion of these tiny particles ( molecules) gives the object energy. The movement of these molecules depends on the state of matter which includes

--> GASEOUS STATE: Here, the particles are completely free to move and are always in motion.

--> LIQUID STATE: particles in this state slide by one another and are always in motion.

--> SOLID STATE: particles in this state are held tightly together but are always in motion.

Also, the molecules in motion are greatly affected by temperature changes. Increase in temperature will cause the particles in the liquid to move faster. Such is seen when soup is heated, the molecules travel faster than before. But the OPPOSITE is seen in an ice cube. This is because the ice cube is in solid state and of a lower temperature.

Which of the following explanations accounts for the fact that the ion-solvent interaction is greater for Li than for K
OLEGan [10]

Li+ has a smaller ionic radius than K+

and smaller molecules have more collisions/interactions between each other

<h3>What is ion-solvent interaction ?</h3>

In the case of ion-solvent interactions, the state in which the interac-tions exist is an obvious one; it is the situation in which ions are inside the solvent.

  • Ions are charged particles, and charges interact with other charges. So there will also be ion-ion, as well as ion-solvent, interactions in the solution.

  • In the process of solvation, ions are surrounded by a concentric shell of solvent. Solvation is the process of reorganizing solvent and solute molecules into solvation complexes.

A sample of 0.53 g of carbon dioxide was obtained by heating 1.31 g of calcium carbonate. what is the percent yield for this rea
Masja [62]

CaCO3(s) ⟶ CaO(s)+CO2(s) 

<span>
moles CaCO3: 1.31 g/100 g/mole CaCO3= 0.0131 </span>

<span>
From stoichiometry, 1 mole of CO2 is formed per 1 mole CaCO3, therefore 0.0131 moles CO2 should also be formed. 
0.0131 moles CO2 x 44 g/mole CO2 = 0.576 g CO2 </span>

Therefore:<span>
<span>% Yield: 0.53/.576 x100= 92 percent yield</span></span>

which of the following substances is least able to cross the blood-brain barrier.)a. waterb. sodium ionsc glucosed. white blood
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

d. white blood cells

Explanation:

It is the white blood cells that have the least tendency to cross the blood- brain barrier.

Blood- brain barrier is psychological barrier and restricts substances that circulate into the blood from crossing over the central nervous system.

Water, glucose as well as sodium ions can easily cross the barrier. As these are good for body supply energy to the brain.
