The Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, Canada is reported to have the largest tides in the world with high tide and low tide occurring

two times per day. The tides can measure over approximately 50.0 ft in height. At the Hopewell Rocks at Hopewell Cape, on a specific day height increase was recorded as a rate of 6.08 ft per hour. What is the rate in meters per second?

The rate in m/s is 5.2 * 10^-4 m/s.

<h3>What is the rate in m/s?</h3>

We know that the speed is given as the ratio of the distance covered to the time taken. In this case, we have been told that the rate at which the tide rises is 6.08 ft per hour. We would now need to convert the rate from  6.08 ft per hour to m/s.

Now;

We know that;

1 foot/hour = 8.5 * 10^-5 m/s

6.08 ft per hour = 6.08 ft per hour * 8.5 * 10^-5 m/s/1 foot/hour

= 5.2 * 10^-4 m/s

Group the following electron configurations in pairs that would represent similar chemical properties at their atoms;
marishachu [46]

<u>Answer:</u> Pairs are:  (a) and (d), (b) and (f), (c) and (e)

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a periodic table, elements are arranged in 18 vertical columns known as groups and 7 horizontal rows known as periods.

Elements arranged in a group show similar chemical properties because of the presence of same number of valence electrons.

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons which are present in the outermost shell of an atom. Outermost shell has the highest value of 'n' that is principal quantum number.

For the given options:

  • <u>For a:</u>

The given electronic configuration is:  1s^22s^22p^63s^2

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are 2

  • <u>For b:</u>

The given electronic configuration is:  1s^22s^22p^63s^3

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 3] = 5

  • <u>For c:</u>

The given electronic configuration is:  1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 6] = 8

  • <u>For d:</u>

The given electronic configuration is:  1s^22s^2

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are 2

  • <u>For e:</u>

The given electronic configuration is:  1s^22s^22p^6

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 6] = 8

  • <u>For f:</u>

The given electronic configuration is:  1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^3

The number of valence electrons in the given configuration are [2 + 3] = 5

Electronic configuration of (a) and (d) will form a pair, (b) and (f) will form a pair, (c) and (e) will form a pair and will have similar chemical properties.

Hence, the pairs are:  (a) and (d), (b) and (f), (c) and (e)
