Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

Normally, when the temperature of water gets colder than 4° C, it starts expanding and will become less dense the colder it becomes. As the temperature gets closer to freezing point, the colder water will float to the top and the warmer water sinks to the bottom. This is mainly because of how the density of water behaves with falling temperatures.

Thus, the lake/river water will freeze from top to down as a a result of that phenomenon of colder water floating to the top and the warmer water sinking to the bottom.

How would exercising, sleeping well, eating healthy foods, and receiving recommended vaccines affect a person's immunity?
notsponge [240]
With the lack of these 3 factors you throw off your health triangle and your health is unbalanced. When you eat well you can get vitamins such as "E" and "C". These vitamins help build up immune cells that help build the immune system. When a person does not get enough sleep that person is more open to viruses and bacteria. Getting the recommended vaccines help you to fight off possible diseases or illnesses. They make you immune system stronger so you can be healthier.

Which is least likely to be reduced? <br> A. Zn^2+ <br> B. Fe^3+ <br> C. Cu^2+ <br> D. Fe^2+
alekssr [168]

A. Zn²⁺

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Cations of several elements

Required

The least to be reduced

Solution

If we look at the voltaic series:

<em>Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe²⁺-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Fe³⁺-Ag-Pt-Au </em>

The electrode which is easier to reduce than the hydrogen (H2) electrode has a positive sign (E red= +) and is located to the right of the voltaic series (right of H)

The electrode which is easier to oxidize than the hydrogen (H2) electrode and is difficult to experience reduction has a negative sign (E red= -) and is located to the left of the voltaic series (left of H)

Or you can look at the standard reduction potential value of the metals in the answer options, and the most negative reduction E° value which will be difficult to reduce.

The Zn metal is located far left of the other metals in the answer choices, so it is the most difficult to reduce

mariarad [96]

Answer:

3.82 × 10 ^-23 g

Explanation:

6.02 x 10^23atoms = 1 mole of sodium

1 atom = 1/(6.02 x 10^23) mole

mass = mole × molar mass

= 1/(6.02 x 10^23) × 23

= 3.82 × 10 ^-23 g
