Technically speaking, walking over pure water isn't possible. The only way it can be done is by converting it to a high density fluid or one with high viscosity. Also, if you think you can run at 108 km/hr (30 m/s), then you'll have the ability to run across water.

This happens because of surface tension. Water molecules are attracted to each other. They form weak bonds between each other. Where these molecules meet air, the exposed water molecules can't attach to any more molecules in front of them — there's air there.

Answer:

The dissociation equations for NaBr gives Na+ and Br-

The dissociation equations for ZnCl2 gives Zn2+ and 2 Cl-

Explanation:

The following pictures shows that the dissociation of one particle of NaBr produces one particle of Na+ (sodium cation) and one particle of Br- (bromine anion).

The dissociation of one particle of ZnCl2 produces one particle of Zn+2 (Zinc cation) and two particles of Cl- (chlorine anion).

2.50 L of gas originally at 50 K is warmed to 80 K. If the pressure remains constant, which gas law needs to be used to find the

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

You want an equation that includes both V and T. Charles' Law states that V =kT or V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂, so this is the best formula to use.

B: The Combined Gas Law is p₁V₁/T₂ = p₂V₂/T₂ will work, but it's overkill for the situation. You can assume any constant value for the pressure, and it will cancel from each side of the equation,

C is wrong. Boyle's Law is p₁V₁ = p₂V₂. It does not include the temperature.

D is wrong. Gay-Lussac's Law is p₁/T₂ = p₂/T₂. It does not include the volume.
