Catalyst has found usage in non-scientific terms as an almost metaphorical word for something provokes or speeds up action or change. The word's applicability to many topics made it easy for it to find its way out of the scientific lexicon and into other domains, in this case political.
Its meaning is roughly the same, in that a catalyst in this context is something that facilitated or sped up the process of glasnost.
One distinct meaning that I notice is that "catalyst" in more casual or non-scientific speech is that it is often used as a creator of action all its own, an actor in itself, rather than a facilitating agent to a reaction, as its scientific definition states.
Answer:
J (joule) W(watt)
Explanation:
If you're looking for the definition it is
The most common definition of energy is the work that a certain force can do. Energy also cannot be created or destroyed and some examples are
light, heat, mechanical, potential, and kinetic
The products are on the right side of the chemical equation, while the reactants are on the left side of the chemical equation.
Therefore if we have:
methane + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water
Then the reactants are methane + oxygen
The products are: A) Carbon dioxide + Water
The answer is it tends to be more negative down a group. This is because as you go down the periodic table, the elements have more electron shells in their atoms. This makes the outermost shells less attracted to the nucleus due to their greater distances from the nucleus. Therefore, these shells are less likely to attract electrons (hence lower electron affinity) and are even more likely to lose electrons from their outer electron orbits.
Answer:
1,209mL or 1.209L
Explanation:
For this equation you would use M1V1=M2V2
You would plug (1.10M)( XmL)=(7.0M)(190.0mL)
Then you would solve for X
XmL= 
XmL- 1,209mL
