<u>X(N03)2</u>

Given: Consider a hypothetical atom x

molecular formula of calcium nitrate = Ca(NO3)2

formula of x chloride is xcl2

molecular formula for x nitrate = ?

  • we are first putting calcium with chloride
  • on checking calcium on the periodic table we observe it in group 2
  • so calcium has two plus charge
  • whereas chloride being a halogen it is observed in group 7
  • it forms ion with one negative charge which would become CaCl2
  • so if we have Ca(NO3)2 and see a Cl2
  • with our hypothetical atom x , if the formula of x with chloride as XCl2 then formula with the nitrate is going to be x
  • this will be similar to calcium because calcium is just like it when we look at calcium with chloride
  • hence when x goes with nitrate it is going to look just like the formula for calcium nitrate
  • this gives us the final answer to be <u>X(NO3)2</u>

A compound is found to have a composition of 35.880% Cr, 21.076% P, and 43,545% O
stepan [7]

Explanation:

Cr=35.880/51=0.73≈0.7

P=21.076/31=0.67≈0.7

O=43.543/16=2.71

Divide each by 0.7 u get

Cr=1 ,P =1, O=4

Empirical formula is CrPO4

Darwin's theorized that three conditions were necessary for natural selection to occur, which of the following is NOT one of the
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

The correct option is: stable environment

Explanation:

According to the Darwin's theory, natural selection is the concept by which all the small useful variations of traits are preserved.

According to Darwin, there are three <u>necessary and sufficient conditions</u> for the occurrence of natural selection:

1. struggle for existence

2. variation

3. inheritance

These conditions are said to be necessary because if these conditions are not satisfied then natural selection does not occur.

These conditions are said to be sufficient because if these conditions are satisfied, then natural selection will most definitely occur.

In beta decay, what is emitted? A. an electron B. a helium-4 atom C. a neutron D. a photon E. a radionucleus
myrzilka [38]

Answer: A. an electron

<u>Beta particles are electrons or positrons (electrons with positive electric charge or antielectrons).</u> Beta decay is a type of radioactive decay in which a beta ray is emitted from an atomic nucleus.

<u>Beta decay occurs when, in an unstable nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons transforms into the other.</u> In beta minus decay, a neutron is broken down into a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino (the neutrino antiparticle, meaning it has an opposite charge to the neutrino). In beta decay plus, a prototype breaks down into a neutron, a positron and a neutrino.
