What is the difference between force and energy? A force is any action that tends to alter the state of rest or uniform motion motion of a body. This is essentially Newton’s first Law of motion. Energy is a property of an system that is a measure of the capacity to do work. for example […]

How do you know if starter motor is bad? What are common bad starter symptoms? Something sounds off. One of the symptoms of a bad starter is a clicking noise when you turn the key or push the start button. You’ve got lights but no action. Your engine won’t crank. Smoke is coming from your […]

What are the limitations of valence bond theory? Limitations of Valence Bond Theory The theory assumes that electrons are localized in specific areas. It does not give a quantitative interpretation of the thermodynamic or kinetic stabilities of coordination compounds. No distinction between weak and strong ligands. Why MOT is preferred over VBT? molecular orbital theory […]

Why some elements are reactive? The number of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom determines its reactivity. Halogens are highly reactive because they readily gain an electron to fill their outermost shell. Alkali metals are highly reactive because they readily lose the single electron in their outermost shell. Is S or O more […]

What does conductivity depend on? What does conductivity depend on? It depends on the concentration, mobility, the valence state of the ionized species in a solution, and the temperature at which a measurement is taken. The higher the concentration of the ions in water, the higher the conductivity. How does thermal conductivity depend on density? […]

Is there a measure of sharpness? There is no unit of sharpness but instruments are available to measure it. Those instruments provide accurate results with high precision. What is the sharpest knife in the world? Obsidian knife blades: overkill for slicing your sandwich. The thinnest blades are three nanometres wide at the edge – 10 […]

Which statement best describes what occurs during a chemical reaction? During a chemical reaction both the identity and the properties of a substance change. Chemical reaction between two substances occurs to form a new substance which is completely different. Therefore, it has different appearance and physical state as well as the chemical properties. Which statement […]

What is difference between mean and median? The mean (average) of a data set is found by adding all numbers in the data set and then dividing by the number of values in the set. The median is the middle value when a data set is ordered from least to greatest. What is the difference […]

Is it bad to be in peak heart rate zone? Going higher than your maximum heart rate for long periods of time could be dangerous for your health. That’s especially true if you’re new to exercise. Do you burn fat in peak heart rate zone? The ‘fat burning zone’ is where you are working out […]

Is fuel line measured ID or OD? Tubing is OD (outside diameter) and Pipe is ID (inside diameter). So the easiest way to tell the size of your fuel line, which is tubing, is to use a combination wrench. Whichever one slips over snuggly is the winner. What size is fuel line? Recommended Size, Based […]
