List three physical properties of a piece of wood?
There are many physical properties for a piece of wood. It is: A solid An insulator Less dense than water (usually)
Sue has 4 pieces of wood. The lenghs are 13 foot 25 foot 310 foot and 14 foot. Which piece of wood is the shortest?
The 13 foot piece is the shortest.
What is the difference between Bamboo floors vs floating floors?
There are three types of wood flooring: solid, engineered, engineered floating. Solid is natural wood usually 3/4" thick. Engineered is solid piece of wood on top of compressed wood the wood is usually 1/4" thick and the compressed wood is anywhere from 1/4" to 1/2" thick. Engineered floating is thin solid piece of wood on top of compressed wood, it is thin enough so during installation it does not have to be attached to the subfloor. The solid wood is usually about 1/8" thick and the compressed is 1/4" thick. All these three types come in all different types of wood species such as bamboo.
What is the ultimate source of energy in coal oil and wood?
Carbon
Is Wood organic or inorganic?
Yes wood is made form trees and treas are organisms so wood is of organic origin.
When a piece of wood burns it releases?
When a piece of wood burns, it releases heat energy, water vapor, carbon dioxide, and ash.
How old is a piece of wood that has 0.7813 percent of the carbon-14 of a living organism?
40110 years
When a piece of wood burns what does it release?
Wood is a hydrocarbon. When wood burns, the hydrogen and carbon in the wood combine with oxygen to produce water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Depending on the other elements in the wood, other elements can be created. For example if there is sulfur in the wood, you could have sulfur dioxide (SO2).
What is a piece of burning wood called?
It is a combustion, an oxydation reaction releasing carbon dioxide and water.
What happens when you burn a piece of wood in a campfire?
Wood is made of fiber (cellulose) and minerals (metals). When wood is burned, oxygen and other elements in the air (mainly carbon, hydrogen and oxygen) react to form carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere, while the minerals turn into ashes. ... Thus the carbon is left to turn into charcoal.
Suppose that you measure the intensity of radiation from carbon-14 in an ancient piece of wood to be 6 percent of what it would be in a freshly cut piece of wood How old is this artifact?
Based on the half-life of carbon-14 (about 5730 years), if the intensity of radiation from carbon-14 in the ancient wood is 6 percent of that in a fresh piece, the wood is approximately 3 half-lives old (5730 years x 3 = 17,190 years). Therefore, the artifact is roughly 17,190 years old.
What is the density of a piece of wood?
It depends of the piece of wood itself and the type of wood that it is.
Is it a chemical reaction when a piece of wood burns?
It is oxidation as the wood combines with air.
The carbon 14 activity of a piece of ancient wood is one quarter of the new wood what is the age of the ancient wood if the half life of carbon-14 is 5730 years?
Given that the carbon-14 activity of the ancient wood is one quarter of the new wood, it means the ancient wood has undergone two half-lives (since 1/4 is 2^(-2)). Therefore, the age of the ancient wood would be 2 half-lives multiplied by the half-life of carbon-14 (5730 years), resulting in an age of 11,460 years.
What kind of wood is this piece made of?
The piece is made of oak wood.
What is a flat piece of wood called?
A flat piece of wood is called a board.
What is the small piece of wood on a clarinet?
The small piece of wood on the clarinet is the reed.
