What is the volume of a mineral sample? Handle your samples to get an idea of how dense each one is, or how heavy each mineral feels for its size. The mass of each sample is measured using a balance or electronic scale. The volume of each sample can be measured (in milliliters) by the […]
What are the three regular views?
What are the three regular views? Typically, an orthographic projection drawing consists of three different views: a front view, a top view, and a side view. Occasionally, more views are used for clarity. The side view is usually the right side, but if the left side is used, it is noted in the drawing. Where […]

In a NaCl solution (salt-water), the solvent is water. A solute is the component in a solution in the lesser amount. In a NaCl solution, […]
What does the slope mean on an acceleration time graph?
What does the slope mean on an acceleration time graph? The slope of an acceleration graph represents a quantity called the jerk. The jerk is the rate of change of the acceleration. How do you represent parallel lines? To symbolize parallel lines in geometry, we use two vertical lines (or slightly slanted lines), like this: […]
What causes copper to form?
What causes copper to form? Most nonrecycled supplies come from porphyry copper deposits (PCDs), which form when hot, metal-bearing fluids percolate up through Earth’s crust. These fluids bubble up through the crust and collect in pores in the rock, where they sit, waiting for the final step that will allow them to form copper minerals. […]
Which is called the basic of science?
Which is called the basic of science? Physics is also called “the fundamental science” because the subject of study of all branches of natural science like chemistry, astronomy, geology, and biology are constrained by laws of physics, similar to how chemistry is often called the central science because of its role in linking the physical […]

What is the formula for lithium chloride? LiCl What does lithium chloride look like? Lithium chloride appears as colorless crystals or powder. Low toxicity. COLOURLESS-TO-WHITE HYGROSCOPIC AND DELIQUESCENT CRYSTALS OR POWDER. What does lithium chloride react with? Reactions with lithium chloride LiCl: LiCl (diluted) + 4 H2O = [Li(H2O)4]+ + Cl-. 2LiCl (solid) + H2SO4 […]
Does car battery charge while in park?
Does car battery charge while in park? Yes, the alternator does charge the battery while the car is idling – regardless of the load on the battery. However, if your electrical use load (radio, lights, fan, etc) exceeds the amount of charge the battery is receiving from the alternator, you will end up with a […]
Is Bacteria living or nonliving?
Is Bacteria living or nonliving? Bacteria (singular: bacterium) are a major group of living organisms.
