Answer:

The minimum resistance is 25 ohms.

Explanation:

Resistance of each resistor is 100 ohms. When resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is lowest. For parallel combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}+....$

Here, all resistors are 100 ohms. So,

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{100}+\dfrac{1}{100}+\dfrac{1}{100}+\dfrac{1}{100}\\\\R=25\ \Omega$

So, the minimum resistance is 25 ohms.

3. Which of the following is not true for atoms? (4 points) They combine to form elements and molecules. They contain negatively

Taya2010 [7]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

They are made up of elements.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

An atom is the smallest particle of matter that still retains the property of the element.
Two or more atoms combine to form elements or compounds. Elements are formed by two or more similar atoms, while compounds are formed by two or more different elements.
Atoms are made up of subatomic particles; protons, electrons and neutrons. Electrons are negatively charged, protons are positively charged while neutrons have no charge.

Now select a longer period, say the fourth period, starting with the element in the 1A group. Again, go from left to right. What

Inessa [10]

Answer:

The pattern of change in the electron configuration increases from left to right across the period.

Explanation:

In the periodic table, elements having the same number of electrons in the outermost shell of their atoms are placed over one another in vertical columns. Each of the vertical columns is known as a group or family. while each of the resulting horizontal rows is known as a period or row.

There are 18 vertical columns and seven periods in the periodic table. Each period begins with an atom having a valence electron and ends with an atom having a complete outer shell structure of an inert gas.

The fourth period of the periodic table (d-block) consists of the transition elements.

The electron distribution into the energy levels of sublevels of atoms can be shown in any of the tree important electronic configuration.

Electronic configuration shows the sequence of filling electrons into the orbitals of the sublevels as guided by some principles.

The maximum number of electrons in the orbitals of sublevels are two for s-sublevel(one orbital) ; six for p-sublevel( three orbital); ten for d-sublevel ( five orbitals) and fourteen for f-sublevel( seven orbitals). This indicates that the maximum number of electrons in an orbital is two

In the Periodic table ,The sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies. One important thing about this principle is that the sublevels do not fill up in numerical order. The pattern of filling is as follows:

1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f etc.

CaCO3 For each of the following compounds, decide whether the compound's solubility in aqueous solution changes with pH. If the

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Hello attached below is the data found in Aleks Data tab

answer :

i) N0

ii) N0

iii) YES , pH of highest solubility = 5

Explanation:

i) For CuBr

solubility does not change with pH hence answer = NO

ii) For MgCl2

solubility does not change with pH hence the answer = NO

iii) For Ba(OH) 2

Solubility does change with pH hence the answer = YES

and the pH at which the highest solubility will occur is = 5

attached below is the reason for the answers given
