What is the difference between activation polarization and concentration polarization?
Activation polarization refers to a condition when the reaction rate (of oxidation or reduction) is controlled by the slowest "step" in a series of reaction steps. For example, in hydrogen reduction reaction, the first step (1) may be when hydrogen ions absorbed from solution onto the anode surface, (2) then electron transfer occurs from anode to the hydrogen ions to form hydrogen, (3) then the hydrogen elements form hydrogen gas molecules, (4) which then form hydrogen gas bubbles. The slowest of these 4 steps, dictates how fast the overall reduction reaction happens.
Concentration polarization refers to a condition of the limits of diffusion. Basically, again referring to the hydrogen reduction reaction, the concentration of H+ ions around the cathode affects the reaction rate. It could be that the concentration is too high (there is plently of H+ ions around, or the concentration is too low (not enough H+ ions around or the reduction reaction is 'eating them up' too quickly).
How do you attach wood to metal?
The most common method is with one or more screws or nails. Wood screws are especially made for the purpose. But screws and nails are not the only option. They can be bolted or pinned together, for example.
with a bolt
What is the definition of factual matter?
It is important to understand the definition to words and word phrases. Factual matter is a question or problem that can be solved.?æ
metallography is the science and art of preparing a metal surface for analysis by grinding,polishing, and etching to reveal it's microstructure constituent
A bit is an atomic unit in computing. As such, it is the smallest numeric unit in computing, but since a bit is an abstract concept rather than a physical entity, it has no size or dimension as such.
The key characteristic of a bit is its atomic nature. Unlike real atoms, it cannot be split into parts. (Note, however, that some encodings transmit multiple symbols to describe a single bit of information. The popular Manchester encoding is an example for such an encoding scheme. However, this does not mean that a bit is subdivided into smaller parts when transmitted with this encoding; a single bit remains indivisible even when represented by multiple symbols.)
What is the yield strength of cast iron?
For the usual run of cast iron, The yield stength almost coincides with its fracture strength - cast iron is very brittle and fractures at usually more than 20000 pounds per square inch. DUCTILE cast iron is one of the several irons that DO yield before cracking.
A machine makes work easier by reducing force and increasing?
Work equals force times distance. In reality, you don't decrease the force by the same proportion that you increase the distance because of friction. In English, you need less power (work per unit of time) to complete the task, but it takes more work (energy) because of more distance of friction.
How does air temperature and air pressure affect the distance a soccer ball can be kicked?
if it's cold,mit'll be like cold n' all. n if itz Warm, use ur imagination. -omg itz rob
What is the cost to attend Berkley University?
Tuition is $12,000 and room and board is around $14,000. That makes a total cost of $26,000 dollars not including books.
How much weight can velcro hold?
Velcro is made in various widths, loop and hook lengths and various materials, including metal fibers, for industrial grade joints. The range of holding power available is wide.
What is the sound velocity of cast iron?
You may be surprised to read that there is no one value for speed of sound in steel that covers all cases. Sound can propagate as a bulk shear or shake wave, as a compression longitudinal wave, and as an extension wave in thin rods.
This speed also varies with the alloy in question.
Here are a couple of table entries for steel which list
in column 1 the relative density;
column 2, the shear wave velocity in bulk material,
column 3 the longitudinal wave velocity,
and finally col 4, the extension wave velocity in slender rods.
Speeds are given in meters per second.
Relative density may be taken as grams per cc.Steel, mild

Why people get together as teams and working together?
Because as Einstein wrote, "The sum is greater than its parts". A team can contribute more toward the goal or outcome than one individual.
So that they can get rid of all of the hard people (very hard to beat) so that they have an easier chance of winning.
What is metal grain direction?
Metal Grain Direction is similar to Wood Grain Direction. It is the direction in which the metal was produced, so when you look at it under a magnifying glass and see lines, that is the direction in which the metal was made in the factory.
Explain different data structure used in assembler?
APCB and APCBXL are two of the many data structures used in Assembler. They are mostly used for EXIT routines. Routines are nothing but simple logics
Why is an I-Beam stronger in its weight than a simple rectangular beam?
The vertical portion of the I-beam resists shear force better than a rectangular one. The "I" portion also deflects force because of its design.
Explain the difference between Euler and Rankine-Gordon formulas. Add also the graph.?
one fundamental difference: euler formula only considers failure due to buckling, while rankine-gordon also takes into effect the compressive stress.
What is the major requirement for atypical engineering design?
A atypical design would be something simple but extravagant
How do you keep concrete block walls from collapsing?
Prior to stuccoing the CBS you can install metal mesh or REBAR
What is the engineering fabrication sector?
A farbricatio Sector is A part pf a engineering sector Ruddy 118
What is meant by geometric modelling?
Geometric modeling is a collection of computerized modeling system. It uses computational geometry and mathematics to create, optimize, analyze, model, and modify designs.
What is WML encoded in binary encoded to reduce bandwidth in wireless domain?
WAP Binary XML (http://www.w3.org/TR/wbxml/). Using WBXML with shared tables can cut size by upto 70%. Without shared tables, the size reduction is in the range of 50%. Note that the longer your tag names, the more savings WBXML will provide.
