Mass is a basic property of matter and is made of atoms. Atoms are made of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons make up the majority of the mass in an atom. Atoms may vary in the number of neutrons they have (called isotopes), and therefore the exact atomic mass may vary from atom to atom
Answer:
Element Lithium
Explanation:
The element with the highest second ionization energy is lithium. It belongs to the alkaline metal group I.e group one metals
It has the highest second ionization energy because it is very difficult to remove the electron from the 1s orbital.
Its atomic number is 3. The electronic configuration is 1s2 2S1
<span>Determine the root-mean-square sped of CO2 molecules that have an average Kinetic Energy of 4.21x10^-21 J per molecule. Write your answer to 3 sig figs.
</span><span>
E = 1/2 m v^2
If you substitute into this formula, you will get out the root-mean-square speed.
If energy is Joules, the mass should be in kg, and the speed will be in m/s.
1 mol of CO2 is 44.0 g, or 4.40 x 10^1 g or 4.40 x 10^-2 kg.
If you divide this by Avagadro's constant, you will get the average mass of a CO2 molecule.
4.40 x 10^-2 kg / 6.02 x 10^23 = 7.31 x 10^-26 kg
So, if E = 1/2 mv^2
</span>v^2 = 2E/m = 2 (4.21x10^-21 J)/7.31 x 10^-26 kg = 115184.68
Take the square root of that, and you get the answer 339 m/s.
Answer:
B. temperature decreases as altitude increases.
Explanation:
Just like in the lower reaches of the atmosphere, the troposphere, in the mesosphere, temperature decreases as altitude increases.
The mesosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere just above the stratosphere.
- It begins at the top of the stratosphere and ends at the mesopause where the thermosphere begins.
- The mesosphere is often referred to as the middle layer.
With increasing height, the temperature of the mesosphere decreases significantly. The top of the mesosphere is one of the coldest part of the earth atmosphere. This is as a result of increasing atmospheric cooling by carbon dioxide in this region of the atmosphere.
