Answer:

kilograms

Explanation:

The basic SI unit for mass is the kilogram (kg), but smaller masses may be measured in grams (g). To measure mass, you would use a balance. In the lab, mass may be measured with a triple beam balance or an electronic balance, but the old-fashioned balance pictured below may give you a better idea of what mass is.

4. An 82 kg hiker climbs Mt. Humphrey near Flagstaff. During a two hour period, the hiker's

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$\Delta E = 434253.96\,J$ , $\Delta P = 60.313\,W$

Explanation:

The change in energy is given by the change in gravitational potential energy:

$\Delta E = m\cdot g \cdot \Delta h$

$\Delta E = (82\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (540\,m)$

$\Delta E = 434253.96\,J$

The average rate of change in terms of time is approximately this:

$\Delta P = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t}$

$\Delta P = \frac{434253.96\,J}{(2\,h)\cdot (\frac{3600\,s}{1\,h} )}$

$\Delta P = 60.313\,W$

A natural atom possesses the atomic number of 13 and a atomic mass of 27. Three electrons are lost. From what region of the atom

Anarel [89]

Answer:

The electrons are lost from the valence shell (outermost electron shell) of the atom.

Explanation:

This is able to be inferred not only because valence electrons being lost first is a trend but also because the atom in question has actually 3 valence electrons (13-2-8 = 3).

Write formulas for binary ionic compounds formed from each of the following pairs of elements

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Binary compounds of potassium and sulfur:

K₂S

Binary compounds of silver chlorine:

AgCl

Binary compounds of calcium and oxygen:

CaO

Binary compounds of aluminium and iodine:

AlI₃

Binary compounds of barium and nitrogen:

Ba₃ N₂

Binary compounds of sodium and selenium:

Na₂Se

Explanation:

Binary compounds:

The compounds which are made up of the atoms of only two elements are called binary compounds.

For example:

The following compounds are binary:

HCl

H₂O

NH₃

HCl is binary because it is composed of only hydrogen and chlorine. Ammonia is also binary compound because it is made up of only two elements nitrogen and hydrogen.

water is also binary because it is also made up of only two elements hydrogen and oxygen.

Binary compounds of potassium and sulfur:

K₂S

The oxidation state of potassium is +1 and sulfur is -2 so two atoms of potassium will combine with one atom of sulfur.

Binary compounds of silver chlorine:

AgCl

The oxidation state of silver is +1 and chlorine is -1. Both combine to form silver chloride.

Binary compounds of calcium and oxygen:

CaO

calcium oxide is formed by calcium and oxygen. The oxidation state of calcium is +2 and oxygen is -2.

Binary compounds of aluminium and iodine:

AlI₃

The oxidation state of aluminium is +3 and iodine is -1 so three atoms of iodine will combine with one atom of aluminium.

Binary compounds of barium and nitrogen:

Ba₃ N₂

Barium nitride is formed by barium and nitrogen. The oxidation state of nitrogen is -3 and barium is +2.

Binary compounds of sodium and selenium:

Na₂Se

The oxidation state of selenium is -2 ans sodium is +1 so two atoms of sodium will combine with one atom of selenium.

Which statement explains why water is classified

hichkok12 [17]

Answer: Option (1) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Compounds are the substances which contain two or more different elements.

Similarly, water is a compound as it is made up when two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom. Compounds can be broken down with the help of chemical reactions.

Hence, the statement water can be broken down by chemical means explains why water is classified as a compound.

What does the following energy diagram represent?A. Activation energyB. Exothermic reactionC. Specific heat capacityD. Endotherm

inn [45]

Explanation:

We are given the following diagram.

In this diagram we can see how the energy in the reaction changes over time. The energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants. That means that the products have won some energy. That represents an endothermic reaction where the reactants absorb energy from the surrounding to form the products.

Answer: D. Endothermic reaction.
