Answer:

the positive charges of the nuclei and the negative charges of delocalized electrons

Explanation:

The interatomic forces that joins a piece of metal atoms together are the positive charges of the nuclei and the negative charges of delocalized electrons.

This bond type is the metallic bond.

  • The metallic bond is an attraction between the positive nuclei of all the closely packed atoms in the lattice.
  • Also, the electron cloud jointly formed by all the atoms losing their outermost shell electrons.

How often does tides occur
Butoxors [25]
Because the Earth rotates through two tidal “bulges” every lunar day, coastal areas experience two high and two low tides every 24 hours and 50 minutes. High tides occur 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. It takes six hours and 12.5 minutes for the water at the shore to go from high to low, or from low to high.

you observe the light from a distant star through a spectroscopy. According to the belief that the universe is expanding from a
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The galaxies outside of our own are moving away from us, and the ones that are farthest away are moving the fastest. This means that no matter what galaxy you happen to be in, all the other galaxies are moving away from you.

However, the galaxies are not moving through space, they are moving in space, because space is also moving. In other words, the universe has no center; everything is moving away from everything else. If you imagine a grid of space with a galaxy every million light years or so, after enough time passes this grid will stretch out so that the galaxies are spread to every two million light years, and so on, possibly into infinity. The universe encompasses everything in existence, from the smallest atom to the largest galaxy; since forming some 13.7 billion years ago in the Big Bang, it has been expanding and may be infinite in its scope. The part of the universe of which we have knowledge is called the observable universe, the region around Earth from which light has had time to reach us.

One famous analogy to explain the expanding universe is imagining the universe like a loaf of raisin bread dough. As the bread rises and expands, the raisins move farther away from each other, but they are still stuck in the dough. In the case of the universe, there may be raisins out there that we can’t see any more because they have moved away so fast that their light has never reached Earth. Fortunately, gravity is in control of things at the local level and keeps our raisins together.The American astronomer Edwin Hubble made the observations in 1925 and was the first to prove that the universe is expanding. He proved that there is a direct relationship between the speeds of distant galaxies and their distances from Earth. This is now known as Hubble’s Law. The Hubble Space Telescope was named after him, and the single number that describes the rate of the cosmic expansion, relating the apparent recession velocities of external galaxies to their distance, is called the Hubble Constant. It might be easier to explain about the beginning of the universe and the Big Bang Theory, than to talk about how it will end. It is possible that the universe will last forever, or it may be crushed out of existence in a reverse of the Big Bang scenario, but that would be so far in the future that it might as well be infinite. Until recently, cosmologists (the scientists who study the universe) assumed that the rate of the universe’s expansion was slowing because of the effects of gravity. However, current research indicates that the universe may expand to eternity. But research continues and new studies of supernovae in remote galaxies and a force called dark energy may modify the possible fates of the universe.

The specific heat of ethanol is 2.44 J/g ֯C. How many kJ of energy are required to heat 50.0 grams of ethanol from -20 ֯C to 68
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Heat energy required (Q) = 10.736 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

Specific heat of ethanol (C) = 2.44 J/g °C

Mass of ethanol (M) = 50 gram

Initial temperature (T1) = -20°C

Final temperature (T1) = 68°C

Find:

Heat energy required (Q) = ?

Computation:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 68°C - (-20°C)

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 88°C

Heat energy required (Q) = mC(ΔT)

Heat energy required (Q) = (50)(2.44)(88)

Heat energy required (Q) = 10,736 J

Heat energy required (Q) = 10.736 KJ
