Answer:
froth flotation is a technique commonly used in the mining industry. In this technique, particles of interest are physically separated from a liquid phase as a result of differences in the ability of air bubbles to selectively adhere to the surface of the particles, based upon their hydrophobicity.
Explanation:
Froth floatation method is commonly used to concentrate sulphide ore such as galena (PbS), zinc blende (ZnS) etc. (ii) In this method, the metaalic ore particles which are perferentially wetted by oil can be separated from gangue. (iii) In this method, the crushed ore is suspended in water and mixed with frothing agent such as pine oil, eucalyptus oil etc. (iv) A small quantity of sodium ethyl xanthate which act as a collector is also added. (v) A froth is generated by blowing air through this mixture. (vi) The collector molecules attach to the ore particles and make them water repellent. (vii) As a result, ore parrticles, wetted by the oil, rise to the surface along with the froth. (viii) The froth is skimmed off and dried to recover the concentration ore. (ix) The gangue particles that are preferentially wetted by water settle at the bottom.
Incomplete question. Full question reads;
Darwin developed the theory of evolution to explain why there are so many different kinds of living things. He could easily observe that offspring of any animals were slightly different from their parents and that this could allow for big changes over thousands of years. He did not know that genes caused the differences. Genes are now very important in the modern theory of evolution.
What most likely led to a change in the widely accepted theory of evolution?
Answer:
<u>new experiments involving genes and evolution </u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Indeed, the original theory of evolution has experienced several changes in its acceptance because of its imperfect and wrong assumptions not based on generally acceptable scientific facts,
Hence, new experiments involving genes and evolution has led to a change (disagreements and few agreements) in the widely accepted theory of evolution.
Answer:
D. It is converted into kinetic energy.
Explanation:
When a book is dropped from a desk to the floor, the potential energy of the book is converted to kinetic energy as it falls.
- Potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of the body.
- At a particular height, the potential energy is maximum.
- A body with mass and moving with velocity will have kinetic energy
- As the book drops through the height, to conserve energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
Answer:
Science is the study of the physical or material world. Science is important because it can answer questions about new ideas and can advance technologies
