You are a researcher for a golf club manufacturer. You are given two identical looking cubes of a metal alloy. You are informed

that they are made of the exact same material, but one is a crystalline, while the other is amorphous. It is your job to determine which one is amorphous because this one is more stress-resistant and is useful in reinforcing golf clubs. Which of the following is the best way to determine which is which?
A. Determine the density of each cube. The more dense one is the amorphous solid.

B. Determine the density of each cube. The less dense cube is the amorphous solid.

C. Melt both cubes and look for a broader range of melting temperatures. The one that melts over a broader range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.

D. Melt both cubes and measure the range of melting temperatures. The one that melts over a narrower range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.

Answer:

C.Melt both cubes and look for a broader range of melting temperatures. The one that melts over a broader range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.

Explanation:

Amorphous solids is one that do not have a fixed melting points but melt over a wide range of temperature due to the irregular shape hence its name. Contrariwise crystalline solids, have a fixed and sharp melting point.

This comes in handy to solve the riddle. We can characterise the pair with the melting point property.

List all the ways you can change oceanic crust into continental crust using the sliders.<br> IS
Lorico [155]

Answer:

By moving the thickness slide just a little bit to the right and just before the oceanic crust turns to continental crust, I can use either the temperature slider or the composition slider by moving either of them to the right until the oceanic crust turns to be continental crust.

Use the periodic table to identify the element with the electron configuration 1s²2s²2p⁴. Write its orbital diagram, and give th
natta225 [31]

Answer:

1. Orbital diagram

2p⁴   ║ ↑↓ ║  "↑"  ║   ↑

2s²    ║ ↑↓ ║

1s²     ║ ↑↓ ║

2. Quantum numbers

  • <em>n </em>= 2,
  • <em>l</em> = 1,
  • m_{l} = 0,
  • m_{s} = +1/2

Explanation:

The fill in rule is:

  • Follow shell number: from the inner most shell to the outer most shell, our case from shell 1 to 2
  • Follow the The Aufbau principle, 1s<2s<2p<3s<3p<4s<3d<4p<5s<4d<5p<6s<4f<5d<6p<7s<5f<6d<7p
  • Hunds' rule: Every orbital in a sublevel is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied. All of the electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin (to maximize total spin).

So, the orbital diagram of given element is as below and the sixth electron is marked between " "

2p⁴   ║ ↑↓ ║  "↑"  ║   ↑

2s²    ║ ↑↓ ║

1s²     ║ ↑↓ ║

The quantum number of an electron consists of four number:

  • <em>n </em>(shell number, - 1, 2, 3...)
  • <em>l</em> (subshell number or  orbital number, 0 - orbital <em>s</em>, 1 - orbital <em>p</em>, 2 - orbital <em>d...</em>)
  • m_{l} (orbital energy, or "which box the electron is in"). For example, orbital <em>p </em>(<em>l</em> = 1) has 3 "boxes", it was number from -1, 0, 1. Orbital <em>d</em> (<em>l </em>= 2) has 5 "boxes", numbered -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
  • m_{s} (spin of electron), either -1/2 or +1/2

In our case, the electron marked with " " has quantum number

  • <em>n </em>= 2, shell number 2,
  • <em>l</em> = 1, subshell or orbital <em>p,</em>
  • m_{l} = 0, 2nd "box" in the range -1, 0, 1
  • m_{s} = +1/2, single electron always has +1/2

A 253 g block of wood has the following dimensions: Length 15.24 cm Width 6.64 cm Height 3.56 cm What is the density of the wood
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

0.7 g/cm³

Explanation:

<em>hey there,</em>

<em />

< The formula for density is p = \frac{m}{v}  where m = mass, v = volume, and p = density. An easy way to remember the formula is density equals love. I found this easy to remember because p = ♡ and when you think about it, if you split the heart in half through the middle like a fraction, it will make \frac{m}{v} (if you don't understand what I'm saying, try writing it out and you will be able to see what I'm talking about!)

We already know that the block is 253 g so the mass is 253 g.

To find the volume, always multiply the 3 values width, length, and height whenever you are trying to find the volume of a block.

15.24 cm x 6.64 cm x 3.56 cm = 360.25 cm³

Now plug it into the formula.p = \frac{m}{v}=\frac{253}{360.25} = 0.7 g/cm³ >

<u>Hope this helped! Feel free to ask anything else.</u>
