By creating combinations of atoms to form substances.

Explanation:

Atoms are the building unit of cells, that are the building blocks of all things. each factor that exists is comprised of cells of assorted components and compounds, held along by atomic bonds.Everything in the universe is composed of atoms.

What causes the colors observed during a flame test

Marrrta [24]

By using flame test we can identify the elements because colors which are given by elements with flame test are unique.

During the flame test, the electrons of the atom which are in ground state absorb energy and go to upper level. This is called electron excitation. Excited electrons are unstable. Hence, they come back to the ground state by emitting the energy as photons. If that released energy has a frequency which belongs to visual light, then that wave gives a color.

What is a valence electron ?

timofeeve [1]

a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

Consider the reaction below for which K = 78.2 atm-1. A(g) + B(g) ↔ C(g) Assume that 0.386 mol C(g) is placed in the cylinder re

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

1.65 L

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given as:

A + B ⇄ C

where;

numbers of moles = 0.386 mol C (g)

Volume = 7.29 L

Molar concentration of C = $\frac{0.386}{7.29}$

= 0.053 M

A + B ⇄ C

Initial 0 0 0.530

Change +x +x - x

Equilibrium x x (0.0530 - x)

$K = \frac{[C]}{[A][B]}$

where

K is given as ; 78.2 atm-1.

So, we have:

$78.2=\frac{[0.0530-x]}{[x][x]}$

$78.2= \frac{(0.0530-x)}{(x^2)}$

$78.2x^2= 0.0530-x$

$78.2x^2+x-0.0530=0$

Using quadratic formula;

$\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

where; a = 78.2 ; b = 1 ; c= - 0.0530

= $\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$ or $\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

= $\frac{-(1)+\sqrt{(1)^2-4(78.2)(-0.0530)} }{2(78.2)}$ or $\frac{-(1)-\sqrt{(1)^2-4(78.2)(-0.0530)} }{2(78.2)}$

= 0.0204 or -0.0332

Going by the positive value; we have:

x = 0.0204

[A] = 0.0204

[B] = 0.0204

[C] = 0.0530 - x

= 0.0530 - 0.0204

= 0.0326

Total number of moles at equilibrium = 0.0204 + 0.0204 + 0.0326

= 0.0734

Finally, we can calculate the volume of the cylinder at equilibrium using the ideal gas; PV =nRT

if we make V the subject of the formula; we have:

$V = \frac{nRT}{P}$

where;

P (pressure) = 1 atm

n (number of moles) = 0.0734 mole

R (rate constant) = 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K

T = 273.15 K (fixed constant temperature )

V (volume) = ???

$V=\frac{(0.0734*0.0821*273.15)}{(1.00)}$

V = 1.64604

V ≅ 1.65 L

When you boil water, why does the level of liquid decrease?

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

when you boil water, you convert it into water vapor, which leaves the pot and mixes with the atmosphere. If you boil the pot long enough, eventually all the water in it is converted to vapor and leaves. the pot is then empty.
