A team of scientists prepares to study the flow of a river through a desert canyon for the next 10 years. The scientists think that the water is contributing to weathering and erosion of the canyon. What kind of data should the scientists collect as evidence to support their explanation?

The bond energy for the van der waals bond between two helium atoms is 7.9×10−4ev. assuming that the average kinetic energy of a helium atom is (3/2)kbt, at what temperature is the average kinetic energy equal to the bond energy between two helium atoms

The characteristics of two different types of reactions are shown below: reaction a: electrons are gained by the atoms of an element. reaction b: protons are lost by the atom of an element. which statement is true about the atoms of the elements that participate in the two reactions? their identity changes in both reaction a and reaction b. their identity changes in reaction a but not in reaction b. their identity changes in reaction b but not in reaction a. their identity remains the same in both reaction a and reaction b.

Examine the false statement. compounds are the smallest unit of an element that occur most commonly in nature. select the rewording of the statement that is true. a: atoms are the smallest unit of an element that commonly occur in nature. b: molecules are the smallest unit of an element or compound that commonly occur in nature. c: molecules are the smallest unit of a compound that occur on the periodic table. d: compounds are the smallest unit of an element that occur on the periodic table
