Imagine that you have a metal bar sitting half in the sun and half in the dark. On a sunny day, the part of the metal that has been sitting in the sun feels hot. If you touch the part of the metal bar that has been sitting in the dark, will it feel hot or cold? Justify your answer in terms of thermal conductivity.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

It will feel hot.

Explanation:

The part of the metal that has been sitting in the sun will heat up, and because metal is a good conductor, the part sitting in the sun will heat up the part sitting in the dark.

We say metal is a good conductor because it has high thermal conductivity, which mean heat will flow from the hot section of the bar to the cold section of the bat.

How to convert Gdm-3 to moldm-3

Answers

Since it is still in dm^-3 (which is basically a Litre) 

You just need to convert the g into moles using the formula: 

moles = mass/molar mass 

= 5.6/(39.1+16+1) 

= 5.6/56.1 

= 0.1 moles 

So this makes it 0.1 moles dm^-3

How many molecules are in 0.25 mole of O2

Answers

According to the concept of Avogadro's number, there are 1.505×10²³ molecules in 0.25 mole of O₂.

What is Avogadro's number?

Avogadro's number is defined as a proportionality factor which relates number of constituent particles with the amount of substance which is present in the sample.

It has a SI unit of reciprocal mole whose numeric value is expressed in reciprocal mole which is a dimensionless number and is called as Avogadro's constant.It relates the volume of a substance with it's average volume occupied by one of it's particles .

According to the definitions, Avogadro's number depend on determined value of mass of one atom of those elements.It bridges the gap between macroscopic and microscopic world by relating amount of substance with number of particles.

Number of atoms can be calculated using Avogadro's number as follows: mass/molar mass×Avogadro's number

Number  of molecules is obtained by multiplying number of moles and Avogadro's number , that is 0.25×6.023×10²³=1.505×10²³ molecules.

Thus, there are 1.505×10²³ molecules in  in 0.25 mole of O₂.

Which
2 continents have the most obvious fit of the coastlines.
subject science

Answers

The East coastline of South America and the west coastline of Africa share the most obvious fit, it gave Wegener the first idea as evidence for the continental drift.

Two continents have the most obvious fit of the coastlines are the east coast of South America and the west coast of Africa.

Further explanation

According to the examination of a world map it reveals a striking match between the shapes of the east coast of South America and the west coast of Africa. Attached the map which shows the west coast of Africa in 1842 and also the map of the east coast of South America. According to the picture of the west coast of Africa in 1842,  we can see Sierra Leone and Freetown, where the West India Regiments arrived and departed from.

Two continents have the most obvious fit of the coastlines are the east coast of South America and the west coast of Africa, because the east coast of South America and the west coast of Africa seem to fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.

Wegener discovered that their rock layers are fit just as it clearly.  All the landmasses used to be one great landmass called Pangaea. Due to plate tectonics, fire movements in the mantle of the earth, the continents are slowly through millions of years, spread farther apart.

What is in the center of our solar system ? Name three physical features of this object .

Answers

Answer: The Sun is present in the center of solar system whose features are color, mass and texture.

Explanation:

Our solar system consists of one star and 8 planets. The star is present in our solar system is the Sun and due to this star only, our solar system is named as such.

The planets present in our solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

These planets revolve around the star which is present at the center of the solar system.

Three physical features of Sun are:

  1. Color: The color of Sun is yellow.
  2. Mass:  The mass of the Sun is 1.98892* 10^(30)kg
  3. Texture: Due to the convectional currents, the texture of the whole surface of sun is granular.

Hence, the Sun is present in the center of solar system whose features are color, mass and texture.

An article about half-lives describes a daughter isotope. What is a daughter isotope?

Answers

A daughter isotope is a part of the decay chain process in which the parent isotope undergoes the decaying process in the nuclear reaction and as a result, it forms daughter isotopes. Daughter isotopes can also have their own daughter isotopes if they want.

The answer should be A, the daughter isotope is the isotope formed from the less stable one (parent)
