Slime flows like a liquid, but unlike familiar liquids (e.g., oil, water), its ability to flow, or viscosity, is not constant. So it's a fluid, but not a regular liquid. Scientists call a material that changes viscosity a non-Newtonian fluid. The technical explanation is that slime is a fluid that changes its ability to resist deformation according to shear or tensile stress.
What this means is, when you pour slime or let it ooze through your fingers, it has a low viscosity and flows like a thick liquid. When you squeeze a non-Newtonian slime, like oobleck, or pound it with your fist, it feels hard, like a wet solid. This is because applying stress squeezes the particles in the slime together, making it hard for them to slide against each other.
Most types of slime are also examples of polymers. Polymers are molecules made by linking together chains of subunits.
The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other.
Two solutions are combined to make classic slime. One is diluted school glue, or polyvinyl alcohol in water. The other solution is borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) in water.
Borax dissolves in water into sodium ions, Na+, and tetraborate ions.
The tetraborate ions react with water to produce the OH- ion and boric acid:
B4O72-(aq) + 7 H2O <—> 4 H3BO3(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)
Boric acid reacts with water to form borate ions:
H3BO3(aq) + 2 H2O <— > B(OH)4-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Hydrogen bonds form between the borate ion and the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules from the glue, linking them together to form a new polymer: slime.
Answer: The amount of time needed to plate 14.0 kg of copper onto the cathode is 295 hours
Explanation:
We are given:
Moles of electron = 1 mole
According to mole concept:
1 mole of an atom contains 
number of particles.
We know that:
Charge on 1 electron = 
Charge on 1 mole of electrons = 
is passed to deposit = 1 mole of copper
63.5 g of copper is deposited by = 193000 C
of copper is deposited by =
To calculate the time required, we use the equation:
where,
I = current passed = 40.0 A
q = total charge = 42551181 C
t = time required = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Converting this into hours, we use the conversion factor:
1 hr = 3600 seconds
So, 
Hence, the amount of time needed to plate 14.0 kg of copper onto the cathode is 295 hours

Answer:
<h2>Saturated</h2>
Explanation:
<em>A</em><em>saturated solution is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved. Table salt (NaCl) readily dissolves in water.</em>
Answer:
C5H5N is the base and C5H5NH+ is the conjugate acid
H2O is the acid and OH− is the conjugate base
Explanation:
<u>Hydrogen + is also called a proton</u>
C5H5N is the base because it receives the proton (H+) and C5H5NH+ is its conjugate acid
H2O is the acid because it gives up the proton and OH− is the conjugate base because it is capable of receiving the proton
Answer:
HNO3 is the acid and NO3- is the conjugate base
H2O is the base and H3O+ is the conjugate acid
Explanation
HNO3 is the acid and NO3− is its conjugate base, capable of receiving a proton
H2O is the base because it receives the proton and H3O+ is a conjugate acid capable of giving up the proton.
