Answer:An element cannot be broken down into any other substance. ... Compounds are substances made from atoms of different elements joined by chemical bonds. They can only be separated by a chemical reaction. Common examples are water (H2O), salt (sodium chloride, NaCl), methane (CH4).
Explanation:I hope this helps
Bit of an odd question. Power Plants are known to use water-powered turbines to generate electricity, but can also make use of nuclear fission.
Answer:
The speed of sound, in m/s, through air at this temperature is 343.5 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
distance traveled by sound, d = 1,687.5 meters
time taken for the sound to travel, t = 5 seconds
air temperature, θ = 10°C
Speed of sound = distance traveled by sound / time taken for the sound to travel
Speed of sound = d / t
= 1687.5 m / 5 s
= 337.5 m/s
Speed of sound at the given temperature is calculated as;
c = 337.5 + 0.6θ
c = 337.5 + 0.6 x 10
c = 337.5 + 6
c = 343.5 m/s
Therefore, the speed of sound, in m/s, through air at this temperature is 343.5 m/s
Answer: The acceleration of the object is 0.67m/s^2 west.
Explanation: Here we are given the initial velocity and final velocity as well as the time taken. Acceleration is the change in velocity per unit time, thus the equation becomes.
a=dv/t
a=vf-vi/t
a=-2.1-4.7/3.9
a= 0.66m/s^2 west
The answer is C.
Ionic compounds are those that bring together anions and cations bonded together by ionic bonds. The electrostatic forces of the different charges are significant in the bonds that make them strong hence require high energy to break them (high melting point). Due to the regular structure of ionic compound that tend to form lattices in solid form, when struck, they shatter along the lines of weakness of the lattice.
