Is short carbon chains of hydrocarbon easier to flow or long?
A hydrocarbon composed of short carbon chains will ignite more easily, just think how flammable petrol is!
What is achieved in the process of cracking?
For anyone who has seen the previous answer ignore the immature remark. "Fuels made from oil mixtures containing large hydrocarbon molecules are not efficient. They do not flow easily and are difficult to ignite. Crude oil often contains too many large hydrocarbon molecules and not enough small hydrocarbon molecules to meet demand - this is where cracking comes in. Cracking allows large hydrocarbon molecules to be broken down into smaller, more useful hydrocarbon molecules. Fractions containing large hydrocarbon molecules are vaporized and passed over a hot catalyst. This breaks chemical bonds in the molecules, and forms smaller hydrocarbon molecules. Cracking is an example of a thermal decomposition reaction." Sources:http://www.bbc.co.uk.education2020.us/
What is a material that can flow easily called?
A material that can easily flow is called a fluid.
Why is oil less dense than water but has higher viscosity?
Oil is less dense than water due to its molecular structure, which includes long hydrocarbon chains that are less tightly packed compared to the molecules in water. Viscosity is higher in oil because the molecules in oil have stronger intermolecular forces that resist flow, while water molecules can move past each other more easily.
Adding external protrusions to a wing (such as fuel pods water tanks and missiles) would be useful but what could one drawback be?
It can weaken the wing, it creates additional drag, and will produce a larger radar reflection.
Is viscosity the inward force among the molecules of a liquid?
Viscosity is the measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, determined by the friction between its molecules as they move past each other. It is not specifically an inward force among molecules, but rather a property that affects how easily a liquid can flow.
Why do liquids flow easily while solids do not?
Liquids have weaker intermolecular forces compared to solids, allowing their molecules to move past each other more easily. In solids, the molecules are tightly packed and held in place by strong intermolecular forces, limiting their ability to flow.
Can molecules of liquids move from place to place?
Yes, molecules in liquids have the freedom to move and flow from one place to another due to their ability to slide past each other. This movement allows liquids to take the shape of their container and flow easily.
Will current flow more easily through a long wire or a short wire?
Current will flow more easily through a short wire compared to a long wire because the resistance of a wire increases with its length. A longer wire will have more resistance, resulting in a lower current flow compared to a shorter wire.
Can water decreases substance resistance to the flow of electricityof electricity?
Yes, water can decrease a substance's resistance to the flow of electricity because it is a good conductor of electricity. Water molecules contain charged ions that enable the flow of electric current more easily compared to substances with higher resistance. However, water can also cause short-circuits and electrical hazards if not controlled properly.
Adding external protrusions to a wing would be useful but what could be one drawback?
the air molecules would not flow easily around object
Does not flow easily water solid gas?
A solid does not flow easily.
