Answer:

Tough outer shell

Explanation:

Three types of space suits based on their purpose are IVA (Intravehicular activity), EVA (extravehicular activity), and IEVA (intra/extravehicular activity)

Space suits have an outer layer known as the Integrated Thermal Micrometeoroid Garment also known as the TMG or ITMG

The functions of the TMG includes the provision of an insulation medium to the wearer of the suit thereby preventing loss of heat and keeping the wearer warm, protect the wearer from solar radiation which are harmful as well as from Micrometeoroid and debris orbiting in space known as MMOD

The outermost layer of the EMU TMG suits is white Ortho-Fabric that consists of Nomex, Kevlar and Gore-Tex, making it fire resistant, very strong and very tough, and water proof as well as breathable.

The mass number for an atom is numerically equal to which quantity
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The mass number of an atom is equal to the number of protons plus the number of neutrons that it contains. In other words, the number of neutrons in an atom is its mass number minus its atomic number.

Explanation:

protons

The mass number of an atom is its total number of protons and neutrons. Atoms of different elements usually have different mass numbers , but they can be the same. For example, the mass number of argon atoms and calcium atoms can both be 40.

The activation energy of a certain uncatalyzed reaction is 64 kJ/mol. In the presence of a catalyst, the Ea is 55 kJ/mol. How ma
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

About 5 times faster.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the Arrhenius equation is considered for both the catalyzed reaction (1) and the uncatalized reaction (2), one determines the relationship between them as follows:

\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{Aexp(-\frac{Ea_1}{RT} )}{Aexp(-\frac{Ea_2}{RT})}  \\\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{exp(-\frac{Ea_1}{RT} )}{exp(-\frac{Ea_2}{RT})}

By replacing the corresponding values we obtain:

\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{exp(-\frac{55000J/mol}{8.314J/molK*673.15K} )}{exp(-\frac{64000J/mol}{8.314J/molK*673.15K} )} =4.8

Such result means that the catalyzed reaction is about five times faster than the uncatalyzed reaction.

Best regards.
