I guess you could call them that. In chemistry, we call them Metalloids though.

A scientist is studying a shock wave from an earthquake. What kind of wave is being studying?
Naily [24]

Answer:

A scientist is studying a shock wave from an earthquake, he is studying mechanical wave.

Explanation:

The shock waves are experienced during earthquake. At the area of increased pressure shock wave are created as the object in that places moves faster as compared to the speed of sound. Shock wave are type of mechanical wave. For its transfer it requires a medium. An electromagnetic wave can travel of its own without any medium, under electromagnetic wave gamma ray and radio wave comes. they are transverse wave.

In a first-order decomposition reaction, 50.0% of a compound decomposes in 10.5 min.
mihalych1998 [28]

In this reaction 50% of the compound decompose in 10.5 min thus, it is half life of the reaction and denoted by symbol t_{1/2}.

(a) For first order reaction, rate constant and half life time are related to each other as follows:

k=\frac{0.6932}{t_{1/2}}=\frac{0.6932}{10.5 min}=0.066 min^{-1}

Thus, rate constant of the reaction is 0.066 min^{-1}.

(b) Rate equation for first order reaction is as follows:

k=\frac{2.303}{t_{1/2}}log\frac{[A_{0}]}{[A_{t}]}

now, 75% of the compound is decomposed, if initial concentration [A_{0} ] is 100 then concentration at time t [A_{t} ] will be 100-75=25.

Putting the values,

0.066 min^{-1}=\frac{2.303}{t}log\frac{100}{25}=\frac{2.303}{t}(0.6020)

On rearranging,

t=\frac{2.303\times 0.6020}{0.066 min^{-1}}=21 min

Thus, time required for 75% decomposition is 21 min.

Nitrogen is used to keep food frozen during transportation.
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Gaseous nitrogen has unique chemical and physical properties that make it suitable for use in food processing. Nitrogen is inert which means it will not react with prepared food materials, which can alter their aromas or flavors. Also, gaseous nitrogen will effectively displace oxygen minimizing oxidation and the growth of microorganisms that cause foods to lose their freshness and deteriorate faster.

Why are the oxidation and reduction half-reactions separated in an<br> electrochemical cell?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<h2>It makes the current viable enough to pass through an exterior wire.</h2>

Explanation:

Electrochemical cells primarily comprise of two half-cells. These half-cells assist in isolating the oxidation and reduction half-reactions. These two reactions are linked by a wire which allows the current to move from one edge to the other. The oxidation at the anode and the reduction take place at the cathode and the addition of a salt bridge helps in completing the circuit and permits the current to flow and leads to the generation of electricity.
