What is the moons role in causing tides ?

Chemistry

The gravitational pull generates this cool thing called tidal force, which kinda pushes the water to the side closest to the moon. When the tide is high, that means the moons closer to that point than somewhere else.

Two sides will always have high tide and two sides will always have low tide.

Tides are caused by gravitational forces of the moon and sun. The moons gravitational force pulls on the water in the oceans and causes bulges that creates “high tide.”

A 125g metal block at a temperature of 93.2 degrees Celsius was immersed in 100g of water at 18.3 degrees Celsius. Given the spe
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

\large \boxed{34.2\, ^{\circ}\text{C}}

Explanation:

There are two heat transfers involved: the heat lost by the metal block and the heat gained by the water.

According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy can neither be destroyed nor created, so the sum of these terms must be zero.

Let the metal be Component 1 and the water be Component 2.

Data:  

For the metal:

m_{1} =\text{125 g; }T_{i} = 93.2 ^{\circ}\text{C; }\\C_{1} = 0.900 \text{ J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$}

For the water:

m_{2} =\text{100 g; }T_{i} = 18.3 ^{\circ}\text{C; }\\C_{2} = 4.184 \text{ J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$}

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Heat lost by metal + heat gained by water} & = & 0\\q_{1} + q_{2} & = & 0\\m_{1}C_{1}\Delta T_{1} + m_{2}C_{2}\Delta T_{2} & = & 0\\\text{125 g}\times 0.900 \text{ J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$} \times\Delta T_{1} + \text{100 g} \times 4.184 \text{ J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$}\Delta \times T_{2} & = & 0\\112.5\Delta T_{1} + 418.4\Delta T_{2} & = & 0\\112.5\Delta T_{1} & = & -418.4\Delta T_{2}\\\Delta T_{1} & = & -3.719\Delta T_{2}\\\end{array}

\Delta T_{1} = T_{\text{f}} - 93.2 ^{\circ}\text{C}\\\Delta T_{2} = T_{\text{f}} - 18.3 ^{\circ}\text{C}

\begin{array}{rcl}\Delta T_{1} & = & -3.719\Delta T_{2}\\T_{\text{f}} - 93.2 ^{\circ}\text{C} & = & -3.719 (T_{\text{f}} - 18.3 ^{\circ}\text{C})\\T_{\text{f}} - 93.2 ^{\circ}\text{C} & = & -3.719T_{\text{f}} + 68.06 ^{\circ}\text{C}\\4.719T_{\text{f}} & = & 161.3 ^{\circ}\text{C}\\T_{\text{f}} & = & \mathbf{34.2 ^{\circ}}\textbf{C}\\\end{array}\\\text{The final temperature of the block and the water is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{34.2\, ^{\circ}}\textbf{C}}$}

Sheena has a lump of sodium, a lump of potassium and a lump of lithium, but they’ve got mixed up and she doesn’t know which one
Arada [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Just saw your request regarding answering this so here it is:

All of them belong of Group 1 in periodic table and thus are highly reactive! Pattern of reactivity for Group 1 (Alkali metals) increases as you move down the group as their radius keeps increasing and thus electrons can be easily lost. Thus, to ID the lumps, Sheena should look at their reactivity and she should get the following trend:

Most reactive: Potassium (K)

Intermediate: Sodium (Na)

Least reactive: Lithium (Li)

Hope it helps!

Which statement describes the location of metalloids on the periodic table? The metalloids are located below metals and above no
Talja [164]
The metalloids are Boron, Silicon, Geranium, etc and are found to the right of the metals and the left of the nonmetals. Since that is not an option, the best choice would be: The metalloids are located below nonmetals and above metals within a group.
