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 […]

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 […]

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 heat or ice best for pinched nerve? The combination of hot and cold increases the circulation of fresh blood to the area, which may help relieve pain. Hold an ice pack over the affected area for about 15 minutes at a time, three times a day to help reduce inflammation. Heat pads can be […]

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 […]

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 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? […]
