Ranking order of speed of sound is; Steel >Water > Air.

Speed of sound in normal air is 340 m/s, in water the speed is 1,430 m/s and in steel the speed is 5920 m/s.

<h3>What is speed of sound?</h3>

The speed of sound is the distance travelled per unit of time by a sound wave as it propagates through an elastic medium. The speed of sound in an ideal gas depends only on its temperature and composition. The speed of sound in mathematical notation is conventionally represented by 'c'. The speed of sound is variable and depends on the properties of the substance through which the wave is travelling.

Determine the number of valence electrons for the following: [kr] 5s2 4d6

wlad13 [49]

Answer: B) 2 (as indicated by electron distribution shown), but taking into account the real properties of this element, 4,7,8 also occur (see below).

Explanation:

This is the electron complement/atomic number of ruthenium, which actually has the structure [Kr] 5s1 4d7

Nevertheless, Ru does not form Ru(I) compounds and few Ru(II) compounds (RuCl2, RuBr2, RuI2). It also forms Ru(III)Cl3 and a larger number of Ru(IV) compounds, e.g. RuO2, RuS2. It also forms RuO4

What volume of silver metal will weigh exactly 2500.0g. The density of the silver is 10.5 g/cm3

pochemuha

Density = mass/volume
From this equation we can also say:
Volume = mass/density
V = 2500.0g/10.5g/cm3
V = 238 cm3
