Why are molecular crystals soft and with low melting point?
Why are molecular crystals soft and with low melting point? Because the intermolecular interactions in a molecular solid are relatively weak compared with ionic and covalent bonds, molecular solids tend to be soft, low melting, and easily vaporized (ΔHfus and ΔHvap are low). What holds molecules together in a solid? Solids are generally held together […]
What is the main purpose of using machine?

Why is de Broglie relationship is only for microscopic objects?
Why is de Broglie relationship is only for microscopic objects? The wave nature of matter, however, has no significance for objects of ordinary size because wavelength of the wave associated with them is too small to be detected. Thus, de-Broglie concept is significant only for sub-microscopic objects in the range of atoms, molecules or smaller […]
What are two uses for sonar?
What are two uses for sonar? Sonar uses sound waves to ‘see’ in the water. NOAA scientists primarily use sonar to develop nautical charts, locate underwater hazards to navigation, search for and map objects on the seafloor such as shipwrecks, and map the seafloor itself.

How are limiting factors and carrying capacity connected?
How are limiting factors and carrying capacity connected? Limiting factors regulate how many organisms live in an ecosystem. Space, food, oxygen, and water are limiting factors. The maximum population size that an ecosystem can support is called carrying capacity. Limiting factors determine carrying capacity. What are the concepts of carrying capacity and limiting factors? Carry […]
