Metals have high melting and boiling points and are often shiny and silvery. Which of the blocks are metals?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

S and p blocks elements are considered metals while d-block elements are considered transition metals.    

Explanation:

s-block consist of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium metals.

All are these called alkali metals.

These metals have one valance electron.

These metals are soft and having low density.

They easily lose their one valance electron and form cation with +1 charge.

They have low melting points.

P- block elements includes beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, radium metals.

They are called alkaline earth metals.

All are these have two valance electrons.

They easily lose their valance electrons and form cation with charge of +2.

These metals are also very soft.

They form salt with halogens.

They are also very reactive metals.

A runner wants to run 13.1 km . She knows that her running pace is 6.2 mi/h .How many minutes must she run? Hint: Use 6.2 mi/h a
frutty [35]

Answer:

  • <u>79 minutes</u>

Explanation:

1)<u> Convert the distance, 13.1 km to miles</u>

  • Conversion factor:

        1 = 1 mi / 1.61 km

  • 13.1 km [ 1 mi /  1.61 km ] = 8.1336 mi

2)<u> Use 6.2 mi/h as a converstion factor between distance and time</u>

  • 8.1366 mi × 1 / [6.2 mi/h] = 1.3124 h

3) <u>Convert 1.3124 h to minutes</u>

  • 1.3124 h × [ 60 min/h] = 78.7 min

Rounding to the nearest minutes (two significant figures):

  • 79 min ← answer

What changes occur in the nuclei of atoms involved in the reactions that fuel nuclear power plants?
Marina CMI [18]
Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two different types of energy-releasing reactions that occur in the nuclei of an atom.
Here are the major differences between the two:

1. To differentiate the two, fission is the splitting of an atom into two or more smaller atoms while fusion is the conjoining or fusion of two or smaller atoms into larger one.

2.  Fission does not normally occur in nature while fusion occurs mostly in heavenly bodies such as the stars.

3.Fission produces highly radioactive particles that can be hazardous to both the living things and its habitat or environment while fusion is "clean energy" and "environmental friendly" meaning there are fewer radioactive particles are produced. But if a fission "trigger" is being used, there will  be radioactive particles produced.

Among the two nuclear changes, fission is widely used because this reaction produces heat in nuclear reactor. This heat is used to generate steam which operates the turbines to eventually produce electricity.

a 160 milligram sample of a radioactive isotope decays to 10 kilograms in 12 years. what is the half life of this element
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

3 years

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial amount of sample = 160 Kg

Amount left after 12 years = 10 Kg

Half life = ?

Solution:

at time zero = 160 Kg

1st half life = 160/2 = 80 kg

2nd half life = 80/2 = 40 kg

3rd half life = 40 / 2 = 20 kg

4th half life = 20 / 2 = 10 kg

Half life:

HL = elapsed time / half life

12 years / 4 = 3 years
