The Big Bang theory is used to explain the origins of the universe. Why is this called a theory and NOT a law?

Answer:

It's called a theory because it has not been proven yet. so we can not claim it to be a fact without proof.

Answer: There is no concrete evidence.

Explanation: If we could do an experiment and create the Big Bang and watch it happen and study it, it would be law. It's for the same reason that evolution is considered a theory. We are not watching it take place and there is no eye witness account of evolution happening because evolution happens over millions and millions of years. If we could sit here and watch the universe be created without need for simulations or theories, then it would be law.

An insulated cup contains 66.0g of water at 22.00oC. A 28.50g sample of metal at 95.25oC is added. The final temperature of the
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Specific heat of metal of the metal is 0.8394J/g°C

Explanation:

The heat the water gain is the same losing for the metal. The equation is:

m(Metal)*ΔT(Metal)*S(Metal) = m(Water)*ΔT(Water)*S(Water)

<em>Where m is mass: 66.0g water and 28.5g Metal</em>

<em>ΔT is change in temperature: (95.25°C-27.84°C) = 67.41°C for the metal and (27.84°C - 22.00°C) = 5.84°C for the water</em>

<em>And S is specific heat of water (4.184J/g°C) and the metal</em>

<em />

Replacing:

28.5g*67.41°C*S(Metal) = 66.0g*5.84°C*4.184J/g°C

S(Metal) = 0.8394J/g°C

<h3>Specific heat of metal of the metal is 0.8394J/g°C</h3>

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

It is an example of coupling an exogenic reaction to an endogenic reaction.

Explanation:

The endergonic reaction is typically being pushed by coupling it to strongly exergonic reaction. This is in most cases via shared intermediates. Most chemical reactions are endergonic in nature. In other word, the are not spontaneous (i.e ΔG>0). Energy must also be applied externally to initiate the reactions. The reactions can also be coupled to exergonic reactions (with  ΔG<0) to initiate them through a process known as share intermediate. Because Gibbs Energy can be summed up (i.e is a state function), the combined  ΔG  of the coupled reaction will be thermodynamically favorable.  The decomposition of calcium carbonate is a typical example.

The solubility of oxygen in water A. allows for a greater concentration of O2 in water than in air. B. is responsible for thermo
Vanyuwa [196]

The ans should be C. ( if i'm not wrong )

This is because the solubility of oxygen increases when temperature in the water is cooler. Cold water can hold more dissolved oxygen than warm water, thus having a higher concentration of oxygen.
