55 miles/1 hour(1.61 km/1 mile)(1000 meters/1km)=88550 meters per hour
88550 meters/1 hour(1 hour/60 minutes)(1 minute/60 seconds)
=24.5972 meters per second

Answer : The speed of car in meters per second is 24.597 m/s

Explanation :

The conversion used from miles to kilometer is:

1 mile = 1.61 km

The conversion used from kilometer to meter is:

1 km = 1000 m

So, 1mile=\frac{1.61km}\times \frac{1000m}{1km}=1610m

The conversion used from hour to second is:

1 hr = 3600 s

So, 1mile/hr=\frac{1610}{3600}m/s

As we are given the speed 55.0 miles per hour. Now we have to determine the speed in meter per second.

As, 1mile/hr=\frac{1610}{3600}m/s

So, 55.0mile/hr=\frac{55.0mile/hr}{1mile/hr}\times \frac{1610}{3600}m/s=24.597m/s

Therefore, the speed of car in meters per second is 24.597 m/s

In each of the following sets of elements, which one will be least likely to gain or lose electrons?
klasskru [66]
1. The reactivity among the alkali metals increases as you go down the group due to the decrease in the effective nuclear charge from the increased shielding by the greater number of electrons. The greater the atomic number, the weaker the hold on the valence electron the nucleus has, and the more easily the element can lose the electron. Conversely, the lower the atomic number, the greater pull the nucleus has on the valence electron, and the less readily would the element be able to lose the electron (relatively speaking). Thus, in the first set comprising group I elements, sodium (Na) would be the least likely to lose its valence electron (and, for that matter, its core electrons).

2. The elements in this set are the group II alkaline earth metals, and they follow the same trend as the alkali metals. Of the elements here, beryllium (Be) would have the highest effective nuclear charge, and so it would be the least likely to lose its valence electrons. In fact, beryllium has a tendency not to lose (or gain) electrons, i.e., ionize, at all; it is unique among its congeners in that it tends to form covalent bonds.

3. While the alkali and alkaline earth metals would lose electrons to attain a noble gas configuration, the group VIIA halogens, as we have here, would need to gain a valence electron for an full octet. The trends in the group I and II elements are turned on their head for the halogens: The smaller the atomic number, the less shielding, and so the greater the pull by the nucleus to gain a valence electron. And as the atomic number increases (such as when you go down the group), the more shielding there is, the weaker the effective nuclear charge, and the lesser the tendency to gain a valence electron. Bromine (Br) has the largest atomic number among the halogens in this set, so an electron would feel the smallest pull from a bromine atom; bromine would thus be the least likely here to gain a valence electron.

4. The pattern for the elements in this set (the group VI chalcogens) generally follows that of the halogens. The greater the atomic number, the weaker the pull of the nucleus, and so the lesser the tendency to gain electrons. Tellurium (Te) has the highest atomic number among the elements in the set, and so it would be the least likely to gain electrons.

In the partition coefficient experiment 4A this week, after thorough mixing of the reagents, phase separation will occur. The to
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The top layer is the Aqueous layer, and the benzoic acid is contained in the non-aqueous layer/oil phase.

Explanation:

A separating funnel is a very important piece of laboratory glassware that is used to separate the components of liquid-liquid mixtures  which are immiscible. This technique is used in the extraction of the components of mixtures.

The liquids separate into two phases. The separation is based on the differences in the liquids' densities, where the denser liquid settles below and the lower density liquid stays afloat. Liquids used for this kind of separation are usually different liquids, one is the aqueous layer and the other, a non-aqueous layer.

Partition coefficient or distribution coefficient is defined as the ratio of the concentrations of a compound in two immiscible solvents at equilibrium.

Organic solvents (except halogenated organic compounds) with densities greater than that of water i.e 1g/mL ( usually called the oil phase) settle at the bottom of the aqueous phase.

Benzoic acid. will settle at the bottom layer ( i.e the lower phase).
