Both graphite and pure metals are both soft. explain why

Chemistry

Answer:

In a pure metal, the force needed to make the layers slide over each other is small. This explains why many pure metals are soft. ... The smaller or bigger atoms distort the layers of atoms in the pure metal. This means that a greater force is required for the layers to slide over each other.

Explanation:

In a pure metal, the force needed to make the layers slide over each other is small. This explains why many pure metals are soft. ... The smaller or bigger atoms distort the layers of atoms in the pure metal.

Answer: theres alot let me explain...

Explanation:

Protein denaturation is what makes eggs solidify, collagen break down and convert to gelatin in slow-cooked meat, fish and chicken become more opaque, and all meats firm up and change color. This is primarily achieved by applying heat, but can also occur in the presence of acidic and basic ingredients.

The Maillard reaction is the primary effect taking place in “browning”, and produces more flavor compounds, resulting in more complex flavors in food that we generally find enjoyable. It involves reaction between amino acids (proteins) and a certain class of sugars called reducing sugars — mostly the monosaccharides, such as glucose and fructose.

Caramelization is a secondary browning effect that occurs in foods with sugar content, even though all browning is often referred to as “caramelizing”. It mostly takes place at higher temperatures than Maillard reaction (with the notable exception of fructose).

Pyrolysis, or thermal decomposition (chemical breakdown) begins at higher temperatures. While caramelization is technically in this category, the main effect of this reaction is carbonization. This is what we generally mean when we talk about “burning” food, even though no combustion has taken place. It’s also what happens when we cause oil to smoke and darken. In small, controlled amounts, this can still provide desirable flavors, such as char on the outside of meat and contributing to “wok hei” in stir frying — the latter of which does involve some combustion.

Acid-base reactions produce carbon dioxide, which creates the rise in quick breads such as biscuits. These often occur at room temperature, but some also don’t occur until higher temperatures — which is how “double-acting” baking powder works.

Gluten formation occurs when you mix flour and water, resulting in stretchy doughs and fluffy baked goods. This occurs easily at room temperature.

A scientist wants to predict the effect of rise of global air temperature on sea level around the world which method a controlle
Verizon [17]

A scientific model is a simplified version of some phenomenon that takes place in natural systems. A scientific model can be visual (flow charts), graphical, conceptual, or mathematical. These models are used to make predictions about how a set of conditions would change the present scenario in future. Scientific models can explain how the ongoing changes in the environment can show long term affect on our planet like the climate change. Therefore, a scientific model can be used to explain the phenomena like the effect of global air temperatures on the mean sea level around the world.

If the dehydration reaction of an alcohol is successful. What changes would be seen in the ir spectrum for the product compared
Bess [88]

If the dehydration reaction of an alcohol is successful. The changes would be seen in the IR spectrum for the product compared to the starting material are as,

  • The O-H and  C-O  band is disappear from stating material
  • The addition of a C-C double bond band in the product.

In dehydration reaction of alcohol (  O-H and  C-O bond ) contain , the water molecule ( H_{2}O ) is release from the reactant and C-C double bond is form which is known as alkene in the product .

The reactant and product have different structure. To determine the structure of the compound IR spectroscopy is used. In IR spectrum the peak corresponds to 3400-3600 cm is missing in the product of  dehydration reaction of an alcohol. It means  O-H band is disappear from stating material.
