C. The gravity on the Moon is less than the gravity on Earth.

Explanation:

The weight of Neil Armstrong changed because the gravity on the Moon is less than the gravity on earth. We can infer that the gravity on moon is one-sixth the gravity earth.

  • Mass of Armstrong on earth and moon is the same. Mass is the quantity of matter contained in a substance. Since he has the same quantity of matter on earth and moon, his mass will be the same.

Weight is a function of mass and gravity on a body.

Since his weight reduced, we can infer that the gravity on the moon is lesser:

        Weight = mass x gravity.

¿Cómo se escribe la fórmula molecular (orden de los iones)?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

A la izquierda el catión y a la derecha el anión.

Explanation:

¡Hola!

En este caso, y basado en las normas IUPAC para la escritura de las fórmulas moleculares, es necesario primero escribir el catión a la izquerda, seguido del anión a la derecha, tal y como se muestra en los siguientes ejemplos, recordando que el catión es el ion cargado positivamente y el anión, negativamente:

K^+Cl^-\\\\Ag_2^+(SO_4)^{2-}

Los cuales son cloruro de potasio y sulfato de plata respectivamente. También es necesario tener en cuenta que los metales tienden a ser cationes por su capacidad de perder electrones, mientras que los no metales a ganarlos y por ende resultar como aniones.

¡Un gusto ayudarte!

Identify the following example as a physical or chemical change. Moisture in the air forms beads of water on a cold window pane.
denis23 [38]

<u>Answer:</u> The given example is a physical change.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A chemical change is defined as the change in which chemical composition of a substance changes and results in the formation of a new substance. These are usually irreversible process.

A physical change is defined as the change in which only the shape and size of the substance changes and no new substance is formed. Only phase change occurs in these processes. These are usually considered as a reversible change.

For the given example: Moisture in the air forms beads of water on a cold window pane.

This is a physical change because water was initially present in the gaseous state (Moisture in the air) and when it is coming in contact with the cold window pane, the gaseous state of water gets converted into a liquid state.

Hence, the given example is a physical change.
