B. A solar cycle usually lasts 11 years.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
A) Its temperature will fall continuously until it condensed into a liquid.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- <em><u>Steam or water vapor is the gaseous state of liquid water. When water vapor above a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius is cooled, the temperature falls continuously, and it undergoes condensation at a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius and turns into liquid water.</u></em>
- The change of state from gaseous to liquid state occurs as a result of latent heat of vaporization that the water vapor carries.
Answer:
See detailed answer with explanation below.
Explanation:
Valence electrons are electrons found on the outermost shell of an atom. They are the electrons in an atom that participate in chemical combination. Recall that the outermost shell of an atom is also referred to as its valence shell. Let us consider an example; if we look at the atom, sodium-11, its electronic configuration is 2,8,1. The last one electron is the valence electron of sodium which is found in its outermost or valence shell.
Positive ions are formed when electrons are lost from the valence shell of an atom. For instance, if the outermost electron in sodium is lost, we now form the sodium ion Na^+ which is a positive ion. Positive ions possess less number of electrons compared to their corresponding atoms.
Negative ions are formed when one or more electrons is added to the valence shell of an atom. A negative ion possesses more electrons than its corresponding atom. For example, chlorine(Cl) contains 17 electrons but the chloride ion (Cl^-) contains 18 electrons.
In molecular compounds, a bond is formed when two electrons are shared between the bonding atoms. Each bonding atom may contribute one of the shared electrons (ordinary covalent bond) or one of the bonding atoms may provide the both shared electrons (coordinate covalent bond). The shared pair may be located at an equidistant position to the nucleus of both atoms. Similarly, the electron may be drawn closer to the nucleus of one atom than the other (polar covalent bond) depending on the electro negativity of the two bonding atoms.
The electrons are shared in order to complete the octet of each atom by so doing, the both bonding atoms now obey the octet rule. For example, two chlorine atoms may come together to form a covalent bond in which each chlorine atom has an octet of electrons on its outermost shell.
16.4 grams is the mass of solute in a 500 mL solution of 0.200 M
.
sodium phosphate
Explanation:
Given data about sodium phosphate
atomic mass of Na3PO4 = 164 grams/mole
volume of the solution = 500 ml or 0.5 litres
molarity of sodium phosphate solution = 0.200 M
The formula for molarity will be used here to know the mass dissolved in the given volume of the solution:
The formula is
molarity = 
putting the values in the equation, we get
molarity x volume = number of moles
0.200 X 0.5= number of moles
number of moles = 0.1 moles
Atomic mass x number of moles = mass
putting the values in the above equation
164 x 0.1 = 16.4 grams
16.4 grams of sodium phosphate is present in 0.5 L of the solution to make a 0.2 M solution.
