What is the reason behind that the melting and boiling point of iron is more than that of sodium?​

Chemistry

Answer:

As metals are giant lattice structures, the number of electrostatic forces to be broken is extremely large, and so metals have high melting and boiling points. This means that the melting point and boiling point of metals are more similar to those for ionic compounds than for covalent substances.

Oxana [17]

4 neutrons that are produced along with the Zn and sm. The complete final equation is:  ²³⁵U + ¹n → \;^{72}Zn+\;^{160}sm + 4 n

<h3>What atomic mass?</h3>

Atomic mass, the quantity of matter contained in an atom of an element.

1) In the left side of the transmutation equation appears:

²³⁵U + ¹n →

Deleting the atomic number (subscript to the left) because the question does not show them as it is focused on a number of neutrons.

2) The right side of the transmutation equation has:

→ \;^{72}Zn+\;^{160}sm +?

3) The total mass number of the left side is 235 + 1 = 236

4) The total mass number of Zn and sm on the right side is 160 + 72 = 232

5) Then, you are lacking 236 - 232 = 4 unit masses on the right side which are the 4 neutrons that are produced along with the Zn and sm.

The complete final equation is:

²³⁵U + ¹n → \;^{72}Zn+\;^{160}sm + 4 n

The pathway by which carbon is transferred from living organisms to the atmosphere is called:
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

cellular respiration

Explanation:

All exergonic processes produced in the cell, through which substances oxidize and chemical energy is released, are grouped under the name of cellular respiration, but to break down an organic molecule the cells employ, mainly dehydrogenations that can be carried carried out in the presence or absence of atmospheric O2 oxygen. There are therefore two types of breathing: aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. The latter also called fermentation.

Aerobic respiration  (oxidative phosphorylation)

- Use molecular O2.

- It degrades glucose to CO2 and H2O

- Exergonic

- Recovers about 50% of chemical energy

- Present in most organisms.

- It uses enzymes located in the mitochondria.

Describe how the height of the tides changes from Monday to Thursday.
adoni [48]
One of the results is that the moon is near the earth and the other one, the oceans tide. Even though the earth can hold any object within
ts proximity, the ocean is partly attracted due to its liquid property. At night, the ocean tends to be attracted to the moon by creating a bulge and assigning it as ‘high tide’. This is due to the strong gravitational pull of th moon to the earth.

I hope this helps!
