Why metals are dense

1 answer:

4 0

Metals are dense because the molecules are tightly packed together, as opposed to non metal items where molecules are loose and separate. this is why metal is stronger than nonmetal items.

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Honestly, you should have a firm resolve not to go into drug peddling.

Politely tell him you are not interested in the business, that you are most concerned about your future and the career path you have chosen for yourself already.

He will definitely feel bad, but you can go on to advise him.

You can also advise him to stop and highlight the dangers of doing drugs.

Explanation:

There are a whole lot of disadvantages involved in the drug business,

in fact, the disadvantages out weights the advantages in the long run.

say if one is caught and sent to a life long sentence, or if one is caught up with the effect of the use of hard drugs and the health implication, to the extent that one looses his/her sanity, you see it won't make any sense anymore doing drugs in the long run. so friend you can advise you cousin to stop and thinker of good businesses that cold fetch him cool money, without the law chasing him, with that he can be a contributor to economic growth by paying his taxes too

4. The atmosphere is composed of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% argon. Typical atmospheric pressure in Boulder, Colorado

ANS

Step 1 :Explanation of required formula.

According to Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, the partial pressure of a component of a gaseous mixture depends on the mole ratio of said component and the total pressure of the gaseous mixture

i.e Pi=Xi × Ptotal,

Here we don't know exactly how many moles of the mixture we have,

but we know that 78.0% of all the molecules present in the mixture are nitrogen molecules, 21.0% are oxygen molecules, and 1% are molecules of Ar gas.

As we know, a mole is simply a very large collection of molecules. In order to have one mole of a substance, we need to have 6.022 × 1023 molecules of that substance.

This means that the actual number of moles is not important here, because the ratio that exists between the number of molecules is equivalent to the ratio that exists between the number of moles.

Hence,

Step 2 : Calculate of mole fraction of the mixture.

mole fraction of nitrogen = 78 /100 = 0.78

mole fraction of O2 =

21 /100 = 0.21

mole fraction of Argon =

1 /100 = 0.01.

Step 3 : Calculate the pressure contributed by each of the mixture.

The pressure contributed by N2 = mole fraction of N2 × Total pressure = 0.78 × 0.83 atm = 0.6474 atm

The pressure contributed by O2 = 0.21 × 0.83 atm = 0.1743 atm

The pressure contributed by N2 = 0.01 × 0.83 atm = 0.0083 atm.

Thank You !!!!!!

A bicyclist starts at rest and speeds up to 30 m/s while accelerating at 4 m/s^2. Determine the distance traveled.

raketka [301]

Answer:

Distance, d = 112.5 meters

Explanation:

Initially, the bicyclist is at rest, u = 0

Final speed of the bicyclist, v = 30 m/s

Acceleration of the bicycle, $a=4\ m/s^2$

Let s is the distance travelled by the bicyclist. The third equation of motion is given as :

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}$

$s=\dfrac{(30)^2}{2\times 4}$

s = 112.5 meters

So, the distance travelled by the bicyclist is 112.5 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Select all that apply. Which of the following are characteristics of acids? contain hydroxide ion or produce it in a solution ta

julia-pushkina [17]

These are the characteristics that apply:

- In a solution taste sour: which is consequence of the H+ concentration.

- Corrode metals: the H+ ion reacts with the metal producing a salt and water

-Produce hydronium ion in solution: as per the Bronsted - Lowry definition an acid is a substance that donates a proton, H+. This proton will react with H2O to form H3O+ (hydronium), as per this scheme:

HA + H2O --> A(-) + H3O(+)
