Natural materials are those that are found in nature and have not been made by humans. By comparison, synthetic materials are man-made and cannot be found in nature.

Answer:

The difference between natural and synthetic material is that natural materials are those that can be found in nature while synthetic materials are those that are chemically produced in a lab. Note that a natural material that is altered physically is still considered a natural material.

Many different materials are used for clothing and other products. Common natural materials include cotton, paper and wool. Common synthetic materials include plastics, which are typically polymers. Synthetic materials are often designed to be stronger and more resistant to damage than any commonly available natural material. There is a limited amount of natural materials available, but a near limitless amount of potential materials that can by synthetically created.

What does a metal's position in an activity series indicate about the chemical properties of that particular metal?

Fed [463]

The closer to the top the metal is in the list, the more active the metal is and the stronger a reducing agent the metal is. When two different metals are involved in a redox reaction, the metal higher in the list will be oxidized and give up electrons that will reduce the cation of the less active metal.

Explain how you would decide which represents a greater mass: 3.25 x 1022 atoms of Ca or 2.45 grams of Mg?

elena55 [62]

Answer:

You need to convert the number of atoms of Ca into mass in grams, using Avogadro's number and the atomic mass of Ca.

Explanation:

The amount of matter is measured in grams. Thus, you need to convert the number of atoms of Ca (calcium) into mass to compare with 2.45 grams of Mg.

To convert the atoms of calcium into mass, you divide by Avogadro's number, to obtain the number of moles of atoms, and then divide by the atomic mass of calcium.

1. Number of moles, n

$n=\dfrac{\text{number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's number}}\\ \\ \\ n=\dfrac{3.25\times 10^{22}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}=0.053969mol$

2. Mass

mass = number of moles × atomic mass

mass = 0.053969mol × 40.078g/mol = 2.16g

Then, 2.45 g of Mg represent a greaer mass than the 3.25 × 10²² atoms of Ca.

use the heisenberg uncertainty principle to calculate the uncertainity in meters in the position of 0.68g and traveling at a vel

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

7.7439×10⁻³¹ m

Explanation:

The expression for Heisenberg uncertainty principle is:

$\Delta x\times \Delta v=\frac {h}{4\times \pi\times m}$

Where m is the mass of the microscopic particle

h is the Planks constant

Δx is the uncertainty in the position

Δv is the uncertainty in the velocity

Given:

mass = 0.68 g = 0.68×10⁻³ kg

Δv = 0.1 m/s

Δx= ?

Applying the above formula as:

$\Delta x\times 0.1=\frac {6.62\times 10^{-34}}{4\times \frac {22}{7}\times 0.68\times 10^{-3}}$

Δx = 7.7439×10⁻³¹ m
