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.

N₂ + 3H2 → 2NH3
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

187 moles NH₃

Explanation:

To find the amount of ammonia formed, you need to multiply the given value by the mole-to-mole ratio consisting of both relevant molecules. The mole-to-mole ratio is made up of the molecules' coefficients in the balanced equation. The desired unit should be placed in the numerator of the ratio. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the lowest amount of sig figs among the given values.

2L of hydrogen has an initial pressure of 750 mmHg, what is the final pressure in mmHg if the volume increases to 20 L with a co
Verdich [7]

Answer: The final pressure is 75 mm Hg.

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature the pressure of a gas in inversely proportional to volume.

Since, it is given that the temperature is constant. Hence, formula used is as follows.

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}\\750 mm Hg \times 2 L = P_{2} \times 20 L\\P_{2} = \frac{750 mm Hg \times 2 L}{20 L}\\= 75 mm Hg

Thus, we can conclude that the final pressure is 75 mm Hg.

13. Would you expect oxygen to form a cation or anion? How many electrons would it gain or lose? Why?
netineya [11]

Answer: C)Anion, it would gain 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule.

Explanation:

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration of oxygen with 8 electrons is

O:8:1s^22s^22p^4

The cation is formed by loss of electrons and anions are formed by gain of electrons.  

In order to complete its octet and get stable, it gains 2 electrons and thus would form an anion.

O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6

18. a) The materials that are in contact. The two materials and the nature of their surfaces. ...
b) The force pushing the two surfaces together. Pushing the surfaces together causes the more of the asperities to come together and increases the surface area in contact with each other.

19. the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity.

20. According to Newton's third law of motion, action force is equal to reaction but acts on two different bodies and in opposite directions. When a horse pushes the ground, the ground reacts and exerts a force on the horse in the forward direction. This force is able to overcome friction force of the cart and it moves.

21. The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

22. R12. Mass is more fundamental because it is an intrinsic property of an object. Weight varies with location depending upon the acceleration due to gravity eg. for a mass m = 10kg on Earth it`s weight is W = mg = 10 x 10 = 100N.
