No, this item is not made of pure silver because if it has been made from pure silver that it would have displaced only 1.16cm³ of water but due to the addition of some other low-density element it displaces 1.9cm³ of water.

<u>For pure silver</u>

density of pure silver is = 10.49 g/cm³

mass of silver = 12.2 gram

since, density = mass/volume

          volume = mass/density

                        = 12.2/10.49 cm³

                         = 1.16 cm³

But the actual displaced water is <u>1.9cm³</u>, which means some other element of lower density has been added.

Therefore, it is clear that the given jewelry is not made of pure silver.

Match each interaction type to the correct amount of potential energy.
Zigmanuir [339]

The type of energy which is present between the repulsion interaction is the highest potential energy.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the amount of energy that is possess by any body with respect to the electric charge posses in that and other factors also.

  • When molecules have a high attraction force then they have the low potential energy in them.
  • When molecules have a great repulsion between them then they have the great potential energy in them.
  • And molecules have the middle amount of potential energy then they have the balanced interaction.

Hence, molecules in which repulsion interaction is present will have highest potential energy.

What is the number of valence electrons that most atoms prefer?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer: 8 electrons

Explanation: Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom and they are important in chemical reactions.

Atoms are <em>happy</em> when they follow the octet rule which states that 2 electrons can go in the first shell and 8 electrons can go in the other shells.

Electrons are happy when they have a full outer shell which usually needs to be 8 electrons. However, some of the smaller elements like helium are happy because they can hold a max of 2 electrons and helium has 2 electrons since it has 2 protons in its core as well as 2 electrons in its energy levels.
