Apiece of metal with a length of 1.42 cm was measured using four different instruments. which of the following measurements is the most accurate?

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.

To find the work done, the force exerted and distance moved are multiplied. a couch is moved twice before you are happy with its placement. the same force was used to move the couch both times. if more work is done the first time it is moved, what do you know about the distance it was moved? a) when more work was done, the couch was moved the same distance. b) when more work was done, the couch was moved less. c) when more work was done, the couch was moved further. d) when more work was done, the couch wasn't moved at all.
