How many electrons are there in the outermost shells of fluorine (F) atoms?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ohaa [14]3 years ago
3 0
<h3>Answer:</h3>

C. 9

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

There are 2 electrons in the first shell, and 7 in the second, for a total of 9.

A flouride ion, on other hand, would have 8, since it fills that second shell with an extra electron (that's why it has a charge of -1)

How many moles are in 2.4g of carbon dioxide (CO2)?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.055 \ mol \ CO_2}}

Explanation:

To convert form grams to moles, the molar mass must be used. This is the mass (in grams) in 1 mole of a substance.

We can use the values on the Periodic Table. First, find the molar masses of the individual elements: carbon and oxygen.

  • C: 12.011 g/mol
  • O: 15.999 g/mol

Check for subscripts. The subscript of 2 after O means there are 2 oxygen atoms, so we have to multiply oxygen's molar mass by 2 before adding.

  • O₂: 2* (15.999 g/mol)=31.998 g/mol
  • CO₂: 12.011 g/mol + 31.998 g/mol =40.009 g/mol

Use the molar mass as a ratio.

\frac {44.009 \ g\ CO_2}{ 1 \ mol \ CO_2}

Multiply by the given number of grams.

2.4 \ g \ CO_2 *\frac {44.009 \ g\ CO_2}{ 1 \ mol \ CO_2}

Flip the fraction so the grams of carbon dioxide cancel.

2.4 \ g \ CO_2 *\frac { 1 \ mol \ CO_2}{44.009 \ g\ CO_2}

2.4  *\frac { 1 \ mol \ CO_2}{44.009}

\frac { 2.4 \ mol \ CO_2}{44.009}= 0.0545342998 \ mol \ CO_2

The original measurement of grams has 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the thousandth place.

The ten thousandth place has a 5, so we round the 4 to a 5.

0.055 \ mol \ CO_2

2.4 grams of carbon dioxide is about 0.055 moles.

Were there any finches that could access more than one food source? If so, which ones?
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

In the mid-nineteenth century, the actual mechanism for evolution was independently conceived of and described by two naturalists: Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace. Importantly, each naturalist spent time exploring the natural world on expeditions to the tropics. From 1831 to 1836, Darwin traveled around the world on H.M.S. Beagle, including stops in South America, Australia, and the southern tip of Africa. Wallace traveled to Brazil to collect insects in the Amazon rainforest from 1848 to 1852 and to the Malay Archipelago from 1854 to 1862. Darwin’s journey, like Wallace’s later journeys to the Malay Archipelago, included stops at several island chains, the last being the Galápagos Islands west of Ecuador. On these islands, Darwin observed species of organisms on different islands that were clearly similar, yet had distinct differences. For example, the ground finches inhabiting the Galápagos Islands comprised several species with a unique beak shape
