A hollow conductor is positively charged. A small uncharged metal ball is lowered by a silk thread (insulating material) through

a small opening in the top of the conductor and allowed to touch its inner surface. After the ball is removed, it will have: A. A positive charge B. A negative charge C. A charge whose sign depends on where the small hole is located in the conductor D. A charge whose sign depends on what part of the inner surface it touched E. No appreciable charge

Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since, the conductor is hollow which means that it is opened on both the ends. Hence, when a small uncharged metal ball is passed through it with the help of a silk thread then due to the presence of this insulating thread the ball will not come directly in contact with the charged rod.

As a result, there will occur no formation of opposite charge on the metal ball. Therefore, the ball will remain uncharged in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that after the given ball is removed, it will have no appreciable charge.

What should be the temperature of the solvent before adding it to the sample to be recrystallized?
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Near the boiling point of the solvent

Explanation:

The process of recrystallization is hinged on the fact that the amount of solute that can be dissolved by a solvent increases with temperature. The process involves creation of a solution by dissolving a solute in a solvent at or near its boiling point.  At the boiling point of the solvent, the solute has a greater solubility in the solvent; not much volume of  the hot solvent is required to dissolve the solute.

Before the solution is later cooled, you can now filter out insoluble impurities from the hot solvent. The quantity of the original solute drops appreciably because impurities have been removed. At this lower temperature, the solution becomes saturated and the solute can no longer be held in solution hence it forms pure crystals of solute, which can be recovered.

Recrystallization must be carried out using the proper solvent. The solute must be relatively insoluble in the solvent at room temperature but more soluble in the solvent at elevated temperature.

The measure of the attraction that an atom has for electrons involved in chemical bonds is known as: ? electron affinity / radio
swat32
The answer is the last option. Electronegativity is the measure of the attraction that an atom has for electrons involved in chemical bonds.  It relates to covalent bonds where electrons are shared. The Pauling scale is the most used.

100!!!POINTS PLZ HELP Explain (on the molecular level) what pumping a tire with air will do to
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Gases are easily compressed. We can see evidence of this in Table 1 in Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids, where you will note that gases have the largest coefficients of volume expansion. The large coefficients mean that gases expand and contract very rapidly with temperature changes. In addition, you will note that most gases expand at the same rate, or have the same β. This raises the question as to why gases should all act in nearly the same way, when liquids and solids have widely varying expansion rates.

The answer lies in the large separation of atoms and molecules in gases, compared to their sizes, as illustrated in Figure 2. Because atoms and molecules have large separations, forces between them can be ignored, except when they collide with each other during collisions. The motion of atoms and molecules (at temperatures well above the boiling temperature) is fast, such that the gas occupies all of the accessible volume and the expansion of gases is rapid. In contrast, in liquids and solids, atoms and molecules are closer together and are quite sensitive to the forces between them.

Writing the net ionic equation
vazorg [7]

First write the molecular equation with states:


(NH4)2S (aq) + 2AgNO3(aq) → Ag2S (s) + 2NH4NO3


Now write a full ionic equation by separating into ions all substances that dissociate: anything (s) (g) or (l) does not dissociate


2NH4 + (aq) + S 2-(aq) + 2Ag+ (aq) + 2NO3- (aq) → Ag2S(s) + 2NH4 + (aq) + 2NO3- (aq)


To write the NET IONIC equation, inspect the full ionic equation above and delete anything that appears on both sides of the → sign:


Net ionic equation:

S 2-(aq) + 2Ag + (aq) → Ag2S(s)

Scientists can tell recycling reduces atmospheric emissions by knowing which of the following? o it takes more Btu to manufactur
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

According to the Environmental Paper Network's Paper Calculator, it takes about 32 million BTUs of energy to produce 1 ton of virgin paper fiber. To produce 1 ton of recycled paper, it takes about 22 million BTUs.

so the answer could be it takes less Btu to manufacture recycled products than new ones
