Answer:
D
Explanation:
Human activities that contribute to desertification include the expansion and intensive use of agricultural lands, poor irrigation practices, deforestation, and overgrazing. ... Some meteorologists and soil scientists measure the impacts and length of a drought to determine if it is an example of desertification.
Answer:
neutral
Explanation:
19+3=22
22 protons & 22 neutrons --> neutral net charge
Answer:
c =0.2 J/g.°C
Explanation:
Given data:
Specific heat of material = ?
Mass of sample = 12 g
Heat absorbed = 48 J
Initial temperature = 20°C
Final temperature = 40°C
Solution:
Specific heat capacity:
It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = 40°C -20°C
ΔT = 20°C
48 J = 12 g×c×20°C
48 J =240 g.°C×c
c = 48 J/240 g.°C
c =0.2 J/g.°C
Because the oily part of its molecule tends to lay up against solid surfaces, but without much in the way of areas of electric charge that would cause it to stick more firmly to that surface.
Answer:
d. compound
Explanation:
<u>Mixture </u>: It is defined as the substance that is made by the combination of two or more different components which are physically combined.
<u>Homogeneous mixture</u> are the mixtures in which the composition of the substances in it are uniformly mixed. <u>Heterogeneous mixture</u> are the mixtures in which the composition of the substances in it are not uniformly mixed.
<u>
Compound :</u> It is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass and are chemically bonded.
<u>
Element :</u> It is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.
<u>As discussed above, The different elements in the compounds are chemically bonded and hence, it is the substance which can be broken down into the simpler units when it subtend only by the chemical change.</u>
