Why Doesn't The Earth Usually Feel Solar Winds?

Answer:

When the solar winds approach the Earth, the magnetosphere (part of the Earth's natural magnetic defenses) deflects/repels most of the charged particles and shields our planet's surface from the winds. Sometimes, however, the magnetosphere isn't strong enough to block the Earth from these winds, so they do hit Earth and may cause catastrophic consequences, such as ruin power grids, cut off telecommunications (cell service/calls), etc.

Are plant cells affected when water is scarce

boyakko [2]

Water is vital to the existence of plant life. Not only do plants use it to keep their cells from drying out, but they need water to move nutrients and raw materials throughout their systems to areas where photosynthesis and seed production take place. When water stress occurs, whether caused by drought or root impairment, many invisible processes are affected.

Enter the correct ground-state (or lowest energy) configuration based on the number of electrons: 1s^4 2s^4 2p^12.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

The ground state configuration is the lowest energy, most stable arrangement. An excited state configuration is a higher energy arrangement (it requires energy input to create an excited state). Valence electrons are the electrons utilised for bonding.

Consider the following system at equilibrium:

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

A - Increase (R), Decrease (P), Decrease(q), Triple both (Q) and (R)

B - Increase(P), Increase(q), Decrease (R)

C - Triple (P) and reduce (q) to one third

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier principle, when a system is in equilibrium and one of the constraints that affect the rate of reaction is applied, the equilibrium will shift so as to annul the effects of the constraint.

P and Q are reactants, an increase in either or both without an equally measurable increase in R (a product) will shift the equilibrium to the right. Also, any decrease in R without a corresponding decrease in either or both of P and Q will shift the equilibrium to the right. Hence, Increase(P), Increase(q), and Decrease (R) will shift the equilibrium to the right.

In the same vein, any increase in R without a corresponding increase in P and Q will shift the equilibrium to the left. The same goes for any decrease in either or both of P and Q without a counter-decrease in R will shift the equilibrium to the left. Hence, Increase (R), Decrease (P), Decrease(q), and Triple both (Q) and (R) will shift the equilibrium to the left.

Any increase or decrease in P with a commensurable decrease or increase in Q (or vice versa) with R remaining constant will create no shift in the equilibrium. Hence, Triple (P) and reduce (q) to one third will create no shift in the equilibrium.

In order to predict whether or not a single replacement reaction takes place you need to consult a chart that shows the

erastova [34]

Activity series of metals. it is a series of metals based on their reactivity from highest to lowest. Potassium occupies the top most level of reactivity. The reactivity means the ability to displace hydrogen gas from water and acid solutions.
