    If statement
AI Thread Summary
A Newton is defined as a kilogram meter per second squared (kgm/s²), making the initial statement false. It is easier to sweep with a broom when the hand is positioned higher on the handle, confirming the second statement as true. The discussion on screws suggests that fewer threads make them easier to use, which is considered true. Water is most dense at 4°C, meaning it is not lighter at that temperature compared to 4.1°C, which is clarified in the conversation. Lastly, ice can release heat only if its surroundings are colder, indicating that the statement about ice releasing heat is conditionally true.

N is the same as Kg/m/s^2. False...K.g/M/s^2.?

It is easier to sweep with a brown if your hand is further up on the handle. true?

a screw with fewer threads is easier to use than a screw of the same size with more threads.-true?

water at 4^0C is lighter than at 4.1^0C. True?

ice can release heat-true?

1) False. A Newton is a kilogram meter per second squared (kgm/s2).

2) True. Torque = Force x radius. More radius means less applied force.

3) Not sure, although most of these you could look up online.

4) The water would be less dense at 4 deg C, I suppose, but not lighter. That would have to do with gravity.

5) Only true if the surroundings are colder than the ice itself. Heat migrates from warmer to colder.

More dense at 4 deg C. That's the maximum density temperature for water. You are right it will be not lighter though.
 
Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'
TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
