You can see what is the electron configuration by looking at the layout of the periodic tables. the first shell will have a max of 2 electrons on it, once the first one is filled up a second is added with a max of 8 electrons on it and so on with the 8 as a max. so He, and H will only have them on the first shell but every horizontal row is a new valence or outer shell. so lets say for carbon look at the number in the upper left corner of the box will tell you the total number of electrons you will need. so start off with the first two electrons on the first shell. now you know that carbon needs 6 electrons in total, since you can only have a max of 2 on the first shell you need a second one so on the second one you will have to have the remaining 4. now elements are most stable when they have a full valence shell becuase those are the only electrons that will react with others. so if carbon has 4 it wants to either gain or lose 4 electrons so you could say that it would bond with 4H since each H will donate 1 electron to the C valence shell making all the H and C stable.

A horizontal clothesline is tied between 2 poles, 12 meters apart. When a mass of 4 kilograms is tied to the middle of the cloth
Olegator [25]

Answer:

T=26.03 N

Explanation:

Given that

Distance between poles = 12 m

Mass of block m= 4 kg

Sag distance = 5 m

Lets take tension in the clothesline is T.

The component of tension in vertical direction will be T cosθ.

By force balancing

2 T cosθ = 40

here tan\theta =\dfrac{5}{6}

θ=39.80°

2 T cos39.8 = 40

T=26.03 N

dangina [55]

Answer:

a) 500

b)-500, north west

Explanation:

a) sum of F= F1+F2= 200+300= 500

b) sum of forces=0

so 200+300-500+0
