4. Imagine you have a radioactive sample containing both Virtualium and decayed atoms of Virtualium. After analysis, you find it

contains 10 atoms of Virtualium and 40 decayed atoms. How old is your sample?

My sample would be 4000 years old because on my graph, I had about 9 Virtualium left at trial 4 so I am guessing that it would be 4000 years old.

Answer:

Lighter, positively charged particles form at the top of the cloud. Heavier, negatively charged particles sink to the bottom of the cloud. When the positive and negative charges grow large enough, a giant spark - lightning - occurs between the two charges within the cloud.

A gas sample occupies 3.25 liters at 297.5K and 2.4 atm. Determine the temperature at which the gas will occupy 4.25 L at 1.50 a

lorasvet [3.4K]

For equal moles of gas, temperature can be calculated from ideal gas equation as follows:

P×V=n×R×T ...... (1)

Initial volume, temperature and pressure of gas is 3.25 L, 297.5 K and 2.4 atm respectively.

2.4 atm ×3.25 L=n×R×297.5 K

Rearranging,

n\times R=0.0262 atm L/K

Similarly at final pressure and volume from equation (1),

1.5 atm ×4.25 L=n×R×T

Putting the value of n×R in above equation,

1.5 atm ×4.25 L=0.0262 (atm L/K)×T

Thus, T=243.32 K

forsale [732]

The given question is incomplete . The complete question is :

In ionic bonding, during the transfer of electrons between two neutrally charged atoms, one electron moves from one atom to another. What are the new relative charges between the two atoms?

a. The giving atom and receiving atom are both negatively charged

b. The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

c. The giving and receiving atom are both positively charged

d. The giving atom is now negatively charged and the receiving atom is now positively charged.

Answer: The giving atom is now positively charged and the receiving atom is now negatively charged.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are formed by transference of electrons between metals and non metals. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Thus when one electron moves from one atom to another, the metal acquires a positive charge and the non metal acquires negative charge.

For example: $NaCl$ is formed by transfer of one electron from sodium to chlorine , thus forming $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$

4. A balloon is filled with 3.0 L of helium at 310 K. The balloon is placed in an oven where the

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

3,29L

Explanation:

3.29L = V2

Formula: V1/T1 = V2/T2

--------------------

Given:

V1 = 3.0 L V2 = ?

T1 = 310 K T2 = 340 K

--------------------

Plugin:

(X stands in place of V2 just to make it easier to look at)

[3.0L / 310K = X / 340K]

(3.0L / 310K = 0.01L/K)

0.01L/K = X / 340K

(multiply 340K on both sides, it cancels out on the right)

0.01L/K * 340K = X

(0.01L/K * 340K = 3.29L)

**3.29L = X**

[or]

**3.29L = V2**
