Answer: The correct answer is option(A).

Explanation:

Litmus paper is used to test whether given solution is acidic or basic(alkaline).

There are two types of litmus paper:

1) Blue Litmus paper: The color of this litmus paper is blue, when treated with acid it turns red and when treated with base it remains blue.

2) Red Litmus paper:The color of this litmus paper is red, when treated with acid it remains red and when treated with base it turns blue.

Since, the substance in beaker did not change the color of blue litmus paper which means that it is a base.

What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

<em>What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron </em>is<u><em> energy</em></u><em>.</em>

Explanation:

The normal state of the atoms, where all the electrons are occupying the lowest possible energy level, is called ground state.

The <em>valence electrons</em> are the electrons that occupy the outermost shell, this is the electrons in the highest main energy level (principal quantum number) of the atom.

So, a <em>nonvalence electron</em> occupies an orbital with less energy than what a valence electron does; in consequence, in order to a nonvalence electron jump from its lower energy level to the higher energy level of a valence electron, the former has to absorb (gain) energy.

This new state is called excited state and is temporary: the electron promoted to the higher energy level will emit the excess energy, in the form of light (photons), to come back to the lower energy level and so the atom return to the ground state.

A 1.450 g sample of an unknown organic compound , X, is dissolved in 15.0 g of toluene
muminat

Answer:

Molecular weight of the compound = 372.13 g/mol

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is related with molality of the solution as:

\Delta T_f = K_f \times m

Where,

\Delta T_f = Depression in freezing point

K_f = Molal depression constant

m = Molality

\Delta T_f = K_f \times m

1.33 = 5.12 \times m

m = 0.26

Molality = \frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Mass\ of\ solvent\ in\ kg}

Mass of solvent (toluene) = 15.0 g = 0.015 kg

0.26 = \frac{Mole\ of\ compound}{0.015}

Moles of compound = 0.015 × 0.26 = 0.00389 mol

Mol = \frac{Mass\ in\ g}{Molecular\ weight}

Mass of the compound = 1.450 g

Molecular\ weight = \frac{Mass\ in\ g}{Moles}

Molecular weight = \frac{1.450}{0.00389} = 372.13\ g/mol

Give the number of protons and electrons in each of these ions or atoms (show your work) Cs. Ba , .s
Morgarella [4.7K]

Explanation:

The sum of total number of protons present in an element is known as atomic number of the element.

  • As atomic number of Cs is 55.

And, it is known that for a neutral atom the number of protons equal to the number of electrons.

Since, no charge in present on given Cs atom it means that it is neutral in nature. Hence, number of protons and electrons present in Cs are 55.

  • For Ba, it is also neutral in nature and atomic number of barium is 56. Hence, number of protons and electrons present in Ba are 56.
  • For S, there is no charge on it so it is also neutral in nature. Atomic number of S is 16. Hence, number of protons and electrons present in S are 16.
