Answer:

Even though plants are rooted in the ground, they still move, exert force, and do work.

Plant cells have very strong cell walls that allow pressure to build up inside of the cell as water is absorbed. This pressure is called turgor.

When turgor pressure is high enough in a cell, the cell walls become firm and as a result, the cell becomes rigid and the plant is able to stand tall and straight.

When a plant does not get enough water, the turgor pressure inside of the cells decreases. A decrease in pressure pushing against the cell wall causes the cells to lose their shape and shrink. This causes the plant to begin to droop or wilt.

When the wilted plant gets enough water, the cells will become rigid again, and the plant will stand firm and straight once again.

If a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy:________
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: If a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

Explanation:

The relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\

This means that energy is inversely proportional to wavelength.

As it is given that energy of a hydrogen atom and a helium atom is same.

Let us assume that E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'. Hence, relation between their wavelengths will be calculated as follows.

E_{hydrogen} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}}    ... (1)

E_{helium} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}}         ... (2)

Equating the equations (1) and (2) as follows.

E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'\\\frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}} = E'\\\lambda_{helium} = \lambda_{hydrogen} = E'

Thus, we can conclude that if a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

A very old tree limb contains an amount of carbon-14 that is approximately 1/8 of the current atmospheric 14C levels.. Calculate
Tomtit [17]

A.       The radioactive decay equation is N = N0e^{-ln(2)*t/T }

where T is the half-life (5730 years), N0 is the number of atoms at time t = 0 and N is the number at time t.

Rewriting this as:

(N/N0) = e^{-ln(2)*t/T }

Since N = (1/8) N0 and substituting known values:

1/8 = e^{-ln(2)*t/5730}

Taking ln of both sides:

ln(1/8)= -ln(2)*t/5730

t = - 5730 * ln(1/8) / ln (2)

t = 17,190 years

The tree was cut down 17,190 years ago.

B.   N0 = 1,500,000 carbon-14 atoms

Since N = (1/8) N0

N = 187,500 carbon atoms left

1. Show the mechanism for the main product for the monochlorination of 2-methylbutane. List all other products.
Bad White [126]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

First, we need to understand that the monochlorination of an alkane like this one, involves substitution of one of the atoms of hydrogen of the molecule for an atom of chlorine.

This reaction takes place when the alkane reacts with Cl₂ in presence of light or heat.

When this happens, the first step involves the breaking of the double bond of the chlorine to form the ion Cl⁻.

The next step involves the substraction of the hydrogen of the molecule by the Chlorine. This will leave the alkane with a lone pair available for reaction.

The third step, the alkane with the lone pair of electron substract a chlorine for the beggining and form the mono chlorinated product.

The final step involves forming the remaining products with the remaining reagents there.

In the picture attached you have the mechanism and product for this reaction:
