Answer:

The Moon of the Earth has some similarities, but also lot of differences with the other natural satellites in the Solar system.

The Moon is rocky, covered with dust, has lot of craters from asteroids and meteorites. Most of the planets in the solar system are actually gassy, frozen, and the craters tend to be very rare.

Compared to the planet around which it spins, the Earth, the Moon is actually very large, even though it is nowhere as large as some other moons in the Solar System. All the other moons tend to be much smaller in comparison the the planets around which they spin.

The Moon also has very low gravitational pull and very small mass for its size, and the reason for that is still not clear. All the other moons have gravitational pulls and masses that are expected by their size.

A) Devices that transfer kinetic energy have what for their source of power?

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

A) Devices that transfer kinetic energy have a source of power that is in motion

Kinetic energy is the energy in motion, as such, a device that transfers kinetic energy transfers the energy the power source has into other energy forms

B) Kerosene does not easily cold start like diesel which can burn after compression

C) The first law of thermodynamics states that energy is conserved and it can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be changed from one form to another.

Therefore, when energy is not available in a given location or body, it cannot be obtained from that body or location

Calculate the molar concentration of the Cl⁻ ions in 0.73 M MgCl2(aq).

Marta_Voda [28]

MgCl2(aq) is an ionic compound which will have the releasing of 2 Cl⁻ ions ions in water for every molecule of MgCl2 that dissolves.
MgCl2(s) --> Mg+(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
[Cl⁻] = 0.73 mol MgCl2/1L × 2 mol Cl⁻ / 1 mol MgCl2 = 1.5 M
The answer to this question is [Cl⁻] = 1.5 M
