This is because some Richer scales are programed or made differently in the factory therefore effecting ones ability to scale an Earth Quake

The Richter scale tells the amount of force that is needed to create the waves and that is used in the moment magnitude scale.
It's kind of like measuring the weight of an object to find the density, it isn't all the information you need.

What is the atomic model that was found after Bohr’s model and how is it better ?
Lyrx [107]
Schrödinger found the quantum mechanical model of the atom after Bohr’s model.
It is better than Bohr’s model because you can use mathematical equations to find electrons certain position. Unlike Bohr’s which is just a “cloud” where the an electron could possibly be.

200.00 grams of an organic compound is known to contain 83.884 grams of carbon, 10.486
Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

Mass of the organic compound = 200g

Mass of carbon = 83.884g

Mass of hydrogen = 10.486g

Mass of oxygen = 18.640g

The mass of nitrogen = mass of organic compound - (mass of carbon + mass of hydrogen + mass of oxygen)

Mass of nitrogen = 200 - (83.884 + 10.486 + 18.64) = 200 - 113.01‬

Mass of nitrogen = 86.99g

The empirical formula of a compound is its simplest formula.

It is derived as shown below;

                        C                   H                O                  N

Which two elements are in the same period?A. hydrogen (H) and neon (Ne)B. tin (Sn) and antimony (Sb)C. fluorine (F) and chlorine
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

C. fluorine (F) and chlorine (Cl)

D. arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb)

Explanation:

In the periodic table , all the elements are arranged according to the atomic number ,

and the elements are placed in groups and periods ,

The elements with similar chemical and physical properties are placed in a common group .

The elements present in the same group have the same number of valence electrons in the valence shell  .

Hence , from the given options ,

fluorine (F) and chlorine (Cl)  belongs to group 17 with 7 valence electrons in the outermost shell .

arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb) belong to group 15 with 3 valence electrons in the outermost shell .
