Graphite, an allotrope of carbon, is converted into cubic diamond through a process that may take a billion years or longer. As illustrated above, scientists can make synthetic diamonds using a certain process in about one week. However, these synthetic diamonds have carbon atoms in a hexagonal lattice. Diamonds with a carbon atoms in a cubic lattice are not produced even though they are thermodynamically more stable than hexagonal diamond. Which of the following best justifies why the synthetic process produces hexagonal diamond and not the more thermodynamically stable cubic diamond?a. The amount of energy required to create new bonds between carbon atoms in cubic diamond is much greater than the amount of energy required to create hexagonal diamond. b. The amount of energy required to create new bonds between carbon atoms in cubic diamond is much smaller than the amount of energy required to create hexagonal diamond. c. The activation energy needed to form cubic diamond is much less than the activation energy needed to form hexagonal diamond. d. The activation energy needed to form cubic diamond is much greater than the activation energy needed to form hexagonal diamond.

One template will be in the shape of a right triangle, where the longer leg is 4 inches more than six times the shorter leg. The second template will be in the shape of a rectangle, where the width is 5 inches more than the triangles shorter leg, and the length is 3 inches. The carpenter needs the areas of the two templates to be the same. Write a system of equations to represent this situation, where y is the area, and x is the length of the shorter leg of the triangle. Which statement describes the number and viability of the systems solutions? A. The system has two solutions, but only one is viable because the other results in negative side lengths. B. The system has only one solution, and it is viable because it results in positive side lengths. C. The system has only one solution, but it is not viable because it results in negative side lengths. D. The system has two solutions, and both are viable because they result in positive side lengths. k and m are constants. the function f(x)= x2 - kx +3 intersects the function g(x) = -kx +m at the point (-1,6). what is the value of k/m Can someone help me with this. Is it ABC or D. Why nationalism was the most important factor? What is the slope of the line? Ms. McClain conducted an experiment with a 6-sided number cube. The table shows the number of times each number landed:table: times landed out of 48number: tosses: 1 8 2 10 3 7 4 6 5 9 6 8For which number(s) did the theoretical probability equal the experimental probability?A) 1B) 2C) 3D) 4E) 5F) 6 If 35.4 liters of hydrogen gas are used, how many liters of nitrogen gas will be needed for the above reaction at STP? Write the expression using a positive exponent. Leave in fraction form and do not expand numbers, leave in exponential form. For example, 2^-7 write as 1/2^7, do NOT write as 1/128 or 0.0078125. NO SPACES! 4w^-1 what is missing word in the middleca_na What is the value of y? Ifx=7andy=3, evaluate the following expression:3xy2 f(x)= x^2 - 7x +12The above equation is in standard form. Write the above equation in factored formf(x) = (x-r1)(x-r2)r1 represents first root, r2 represetnts second rootWhat are the roots?Remember, x-r1 = 0 and x-r2=0 For the most part, custodial parents A. Almost always collect full child support awarded by the court. B. receive the full support ordered by the court less than half of the time. C. do not have a legal duty to support the children. D.
