X4O10
Let molar mass of X be y
molar mass =  4y + 10 x 16 = 4y+160

so, moles = 85.2 / (4y+160)

Moles of oxygen = 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
Mass of oxygen  = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
which is 48.0

so, 48 = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]

Solve the equation to get y.

y = 31

Which statement about atmospheric pressure is false?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

D) With an increase in altitude, atmospheric pressure increases as well.

Explanation:

Generally when altitude increases, the value of pressure decreases. This shows that pressure is inversely proportional to altitude. For example, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure and vice versa. At very high altitude, the number of molecules of air are smaller than the number of moles of air at very low altitude. Thus, the higher the altitude, the lower the atmospheric pressure and the lower the altitude, the higher the atmospheric pressure. Therefore, option (D) is false.

Shown below is a table with plants and animals with their adaptations.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Desert

Explanation:

The adaptation shown by the given plants and animals shows that they will adapted to the desert biome.

It is so because, due to high temperature of desert some desert animals like camel have the storage of fat in humps or tails; some animals have large ears such as Jackrabbits, it helps to release body heat and adapt in high temperature; plants have thick water holding tissues to reduce water loss in heat and waxy coating that keeps  the plants cooler and reduce moisture loss.

Hence, the correct answer is "Desert".

What effect does the anion of an ionic compound have on the appearance of the solution?
choli [55]

Answer: B. The anion affects the color of the solution more than the intensity of the color.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is gotten when an electron is transferred from a metal atom to a non-metal one. It should be noted that the ionic bonds simply has an anion and a cation.

An anion is formed when a valence election is gained by a non metal while a cation is formed when the metal ion misplaces a valence electron.

The effect of the anion of an ionic compound on the appearance of the solution is that the anion affects the color of the solution more than the intensity of the color.

what happens to the radius of the atoms of an element as you go towards the right in a row of the periodic table ?
Olegator [25]

Answer:

It decreases

Explanation:

As one moves from left to right on the periodic table, the radius of atoms reduces due to the nuclear pull.

  • The size of an atom estimated by the atomic radius is taken as half of the internuclear distance between the two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements.
  • Across a period, atomic radius decreases progressively from left to right.
  • This is due to the increasing nuclear charge without attendant increase in the number of electronic shell.
