Why can certain things only be turned into certain other things? For example, if you mixed flour, sugar, eggs, and other ingredi

ents, you will not make gold. You will not make rubber, or diamond, or straw either. Why not? In the following space, explain why someone cannot make gold by mixing flour, sugar, and eggs.

kow [346]4 years ago

Answer:

You cannot make gold with bakery ingredients as gold is made with hydrogen and helium. Not everything follows the same recipe as some objects. There are different recipes for each material which makes sense because minerals aren't made of wheat. Those minerals feel like stone and act like stone, so it wouldn't be logical if it was crafted with flour, sugar and eggs.

Hope this helps.

1. Addition of which of the following will increase the solubility of CaCO3 in water? Consider the equilibrium process:
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer: HCl

Explanation:

calcium carbonate dissolves in HCl acid producing CO 2 gas. It will not dissolve in pure water. The Ksp for calcium carbonate in water is 3.4 x 10-9 moldm-3 which is very low. What takes place here is actually a chemical reaction:

CaCO 3 (s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl 2 (aq) + H 2CO 3(aq)

This reaction accounts for the solubility of the Calcium carbonate in HCl and not in pure water.

An inverted pyramid is being filled with water at a constant rate of 45 cubic centimeters per second. The pyramid, at the top, h
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

Explanation:

Length of the base = l

Width of the base  =  w

Height of the pyramid = h

Volume of the pyramid = V=\frac{1}{3}lwh

We have:

Rate at which water is filled in cube = \frac{dV}{dt}= 45 cm^3/s

Square based pyramid:

l = 6 cm, w = 6 cm, h = 13 cm

Volume of the square based pyramid = V

V=\frac{1}{3}\times l^2\times h

\frac{l}{h}=\frac{6}{13}

l=\frac{6h}{13}

V=\frac{1}{3}\times (\frac{6h}{13})^2\times h

V=\frac{12}{169}h^3

Differentiating V with respect to dt:

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{d(\frac{12}{169}h^3)}{dt}

\frac{dV}{dt}=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}

45 cm^3/s=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times h^2}

Putting, h = 4 cm

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times (4 cm)^2}

=13.20 cm/s

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

How do the chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules?
Tom [10]

Answer:

The chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules due to its tetravalent nature. It has four valence electrons in which it shares with other elements in order to form an octet configuration.

Carbon atoms are also capable of forming double and triple bonds with other atoms. These properties help determine the functional group present and gives us a knowledge of the chemical features such as polarity, melting and boiling present in the compound.
