Alkaline Earth Metals are the elements located in the second period from the left of the periodic table. These elements lose two electrons to form the stable octet when forming an ionic bond, resulting in a net charge of +2. Because they’re trying to get rid of those electrons to get to the stable octet, it’s easy to remove them - this means that the ionization energy of these elements is relatively low. Finally, since they’re looking to get rid of electrons, they certainly aren’t trying to gain any, meaning that their electronegativity is relatively low.

The correct answers are A and D.

Perform the following unit conversions:

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer :

(a) The 60 feet of water is equal to 179344.2 Pa.

(b) The 220 psi is equal to $31680lbf/ft^2$

(c) The 120 torr is equal to 15998.6 Pa.

(d) The 1.0 atm to inches of glycerin is equal to 323.07 inches.

(e) The 1050 mm Hg is equal to $376.95lbf/ft^2$

Explanation :

(a) The conversion used from feet to pascal is:

$1\text{ feet}=2989.07Pa$

As we are given that 60 feet of water. Now we have to convert into Pa.

As, $1\text{ feet}=2989.07Pa$

So, $60\text{ feet}=\frac{60\text{ feet}}{1\text{ feet}}\times 2989.07Pa=179344.2Pa$

The 60 feet of water is equal to 179344.2 Pa.

(b) The conversion used from $psi$ to $lbf/ft^2$ is:

$1\text{ psi}=144lbf/ft^2$

As we are given that 220 psi. Now we have to convert into $lbf/ft^2$ .

As, $1\text{ psi}=144lbf/ft^2$

So, $220\text{ psi}=\frac{220\text{ psi}}{1\text{ psi}}\times 144lbf/ft^2=31680lbf/ft^2$

The 220 psi is equal to $31680lbf/ft^2$

(c) The conversion used from torr to pascal is:

$1\text{ torr}=133.322Pa$

As we are given that 120 torr. Now we have to convert into Pa.

As, $1\text{ torr}=133.322Pa$

So, $120\text{ torr}=\frac{120\text{ torr}}{1\text{ torr}}\times 133.322Pa=15998.6Pa$

The 120 torr is equal to 15998.6 Pa.

(d) 1.0 atm to inches of glycerin

Formula used : $P=\rho gh$

where,

P = pressure of glycerin = 1.0 atm = 101325 Pa

g = acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^2$

$\rho$ = density of glycerin = $1260kg/m^3$

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:

$101325Pa=(1260kg/m^3)\times (9.8m/s^2)\times h$

$h=8.206\frac{Pa.m^2s^2}{kg}=8.206m=323.07\text{ inches}$

Conversion used :

$1Pa=\frac{kg}{ms^2}\\\\1m=39.37inches$

The 1.0 atm to inches of glycerin is equal to 323.07 inches.

(e) The conversion used from $psi$ to $lbf/ft^2$ is:

$1\text{ mmHg}=0.359lbf/ft^2$

As we are given that 1050 mmHg. Now we have to convert into $lbf/ft^2$ .

As, $1\text{ mmHg}=0.359lbf/ft^2$

So, $1050\text{ mmHg}=\frac{1050\text{ mmHg}}{1\text{ mmHg}}\times 0.359lbf/ft^2=376.95lbf/ft^2$

The 1050 mm Hg is equal to $376.95lbf/ft^2$
