Why was Arctic sea ice so low in 2012?

Why was Arctic sea ice so low in 2012? It’s clear that Arctic sea ice is declining over time, although there are ups and downs each year. And scientists say the melt has been driven by both global warming and other pollutants that humans have put into the atmosphere. What was the sea ice minimum […]

Is ATM a volume?

Is ATM a volume? An atm, or atmosphere, is a unit of gas pressure. According to the Ideal Gas Law, 1 mole of a gas that occupies a volume of 22.4 liters at 273 degrees Kelvin (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit) exerts a pressure equal to 1 ATM. These conditions are known as […]

Is flow rate a vector?

Is flow rate a vector? 1 Velocity, speed, flow rate, and acceleration. Velocity indicates the distance and the direction of a motion, and is called a vector quantity. To define a vector quantity, both magnitude and direction are needed. What is the unit of flow rate? In S.I. units (International System of Units), volume flow […]

Is Lodestone a permanent magnet?

Is Lodestone a permanent magnet? The lodestone is an extremely rare form of the mineral magnetite (Fe3O4) that occurs naturally as a permanent magnet. What type of magnet is a fridge magnet? Refrigerator magnets are usually made from materials that are ferrimagnetic. Similarly, refrigerator magnets are made of a material that is permanently magnetized – […]

How do you know if electrons are non-bonding?

How do you know if electrons are non-bonding? Because it takes two electrons to form a covalent bond, we can calculate the number of nonbonding electrons in the molecule by subtracting two electrons from the total number of valence electrons for each bond in the skeleton structure. How many non-bonding electrons are there? The number […]

Which disease is the result of somatic mutation?

Which disease is the result of somatic mutation? Somatic mutations can give rise to cancer (9), as well as noncancerous diseases. Noncancerous somatic mutations that occur during development may affect cell proliferation, as would be the case in cancer, or they may simply alter cellular function without causing a proliferative effect. What causes somatic mutation? […]

Is the relationship between frequency and wavelength direct?

Is the relationship between frequency and wavelength direct? Wavelength (typically measured in nanometers) is the distance between two points in a wave. Frequency and wavelength have both direct and inverse relationships. The wave with shorter wavelength will have a higher frequency while a longer wavelength will have a lower frequency. Is frequency and energy directly […]
