What is the ability of a substance to oppose or slow down electric current?
Insulators typically slow the movement of electrons through an electric current. Bad conductors, such as rubber, can be used to slow, stop, and/or redirect electric current.CommentInsulators do not 'slow down', 'stop', or 'redirect' current! Simply put, insulators don't have enough charge carriers to support conduction.
Can lactase break down cellulose?
Yes, lactase can definitely break down cellulose. In fact, when the lactase works to break down the cellulose, it breaks the cellulose down into two different monomers.
How do you break down the word ophthalmoscope?
ophth almo scope that is you break the word ophthalmoscope
What is a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances?
A substance that cannot be broken down is a pure substance
Do you think photodegradable plastic that is buried in a landfill will break down quickly why or why not?
No it won't a because photodegradable means it will break down if exposed to sunlight, but since it is in a land fill there won't be much exposure to the sun, so that means it will slowly break down in the land fill.
What is the process of breaking down something using an electric current?
Electrolysis is the process of using an electric current to break down a chemical compound into simpler substances. It involves passing an electric current through a conducting solution or molten compound, causing the compound to decompose into its constituent elements or ions.
What is Decomposition of a material by an outside electric current call?
The process of decomposing a material by an outside electric current is called electrolysis. It involves passing an electric current through a substance to break it down into its component parts.
When water molecules are broken down into hydrogen and oxygen molecules by an electric current is this an example of a mixture?
no, it is a compound
Why do not compounds undergo electrolysis?
Compounds do not undergo electrolysis because electrolysis is the process of using an electric current to decompose a compound into its constituent elements. Compounds are already in a stable form, so they do not break down into their component elements without an external source of energy, such as an electric current.
How do you break compounds into elements?
Compounds can be broken into elements through chemical reactions such as decomposition or electrolysis. Decomposition reactions involve heating a compound to break it down into its constituent elements. Electrolysis uses an electric current to drive a chemical reaction that separates the elements in a compound.
How does electrolysis work to separate compounds into their constituent elements?
Electrolysis is a process that uses an electric current to break down compounds into their individual elements. When an electric current is passed through a compound in a liquid state, the positive ions are attracted to the negative electrode (cathode) and gain electrons, while the negative ions are attracted to the positive electrode (anode) and lose electrons. This causes the compound to decompose into its constituent elements.
The only way to break down a compound is through a?
The only way to break down a compound is through a chemical reaction.
Can you break down compound?
yes
When an electric current passes through water takes place breaking down the compound into hydrogen and oxygen?
Electrolysis of pure water is very slow and not significant; adding an electrolyte (an ionic salt) the electrolysis is a large scale process.
Describe a method for separating a compound into its constituent elements?
One method for separating a compound into its constituent elements is through chemical decomposition, such as heating the compound to break its chemical bonds. Another method is through electrolysis, where an electric current breaks down the compound into its elements at the electrodes. Additionally, fractional distillation can be used to separate a mixture of compounds based on their different boiling points.
What will ammonium compound break down into?
Ammonium compound breaks down into nitrites, and back to nitrates
What is the name of the process for splitting apart compounds using electricity?
It is electrolysis becouse its a chemical reaction in which an electrical current is used to decompose a compound
