Answer: B. Have eight electrons in their outer shell.

Explanation:

Noble gases are known for their unreactive nature due to the presence of complete outermost electron. They possess eight electrons in their outermost shell (octet rule). Being unreactive means that they cannot share any of their outermost electron to any other atoms since they are completely filled up (stable).

Taking sodium(2 8 1) which is reactive as an example, its reactivity is due to the presence of a lone pair of electron in its outermost shell which it can easily share to other atom with incomplete outermost electron like chlorine (2 8 7).

Capacitance = k x ε° x area / separation 
ε° = 8.854 10^-12 F/ m 
k = 2.4max 
average k = 0.78 / 1.27 * 2.4 +(1.27- 0.78) / 1.27 * 1 = 1.474 + 0.386 = 1.86 
(61.4 % separation k = 2.4 --- 38.6 % k = 1 air --- average k = 0.614 * 2.34 + 0.386 * 1 = 1.86 
area = 145 cm2 = 0.0145 m2 
separation = 1.27 cm 0.0127 m 

C = 1.86 * 8.854 10^-12 * 0.0145 / 0.0127 = 18.8 pF

IgorC [24]
That is a really good question, cheese is stretchy when it is hot is because when you heat it up, it liquefies which makes it stretch. it doesn't stretch when it is cold because it is a solid and solids usually do not stretch.

What is the relationship between power and voltage
FrozenT [24]

Answer

Voltage is how fast the electrons flow. Power is a use of voltage times the volumes of electrons. The higher the voltage the more power you have with the same current.

A piece of driftwood moves up and down as water waves pass beneath it. However, it does not move toward the shore with the waves
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

It's A

Explanation:

As the waves progress through the medium, the particles they are made of move perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. The particles do not move with the wave. So waves transmit energy but not matter as they progress through a medium.

The four tires of an automobile are inflated to a gauge pressure of 2.2 105 Pa. Each tire has an area of 0.023 m2 in contact wit
Stels [109]

Answer:

Force, F = 20240 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Pressure exerted by the four tires of an automobile, P=2.2\times 10^5\ Pa

Area of each tire, A=0.023\ m^2

Area of 4 tires,  A=0.092\ m^2

We know that the pressure exerted by an object is equal to the force per unit area. Its formula is given by :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

F=P\times A

F=2.2\times 10^5\times 0.092

F = 20240 N

So, the weight of the automobile is 20240 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
