Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of lithium is 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1.

Atomic number of bromine is 35 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 18, 7.

It is known that a neutral atom which accepts electrons acquires a negative charge and a neutral atom that loses electrons will acquire a positive charge.

So, in order to attain stability lithium will lose its 1 valence electron and bromine will accept its 1 electron.

Therefore, lithium will acquire a positive charge and bromine will acquire a negative charge.

Thus, we can conclude that electrical charges would the 2 newly formed ions take on is Li^{+} and Br^{-}.

I believe the Lithium will give up its electron to the bromine so it would become negative

 so it is Li- and Br+

Given the following list of densities, which materials would float in a molten vat of lead provided that they do not themselves
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

b. glass and charcoal

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Density of Pb: 11.4 g/mL
  • Density of Glass: 2.6 g/mL
  • Density of Au: 19.3 g/mL
  • Density of charcoal: 0.57 g/mL
  • Density of platinum: 21.4 g/mL

Step 2: Determine which material will float in molten lead

Density is an intrinsic property of matter. Less dense materials float in more dense materials. The materials whose density is lower than that of lead and will therefore float on it are glass and charcoal.

If a mixture of gases contained 78% nitrogen at a pressure of 984 torr and 22% carbon dioxide at 345 torr, what is the total pre
AysviL [449]

Answer:

P(total) = 1329 torr

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure of nitrogen = 984 torr

Pressure of carbon dioxide = 345 torr

Total pressure of system = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Dalton law of partial pressure of gases.

According to the this law,

The total pressure exerted by the mixture of gases is equal to the sum of partial pressure of individual gas.

Mathematical expression,

P(total) = P₁ + P₂ +.......+ Pₙ

Here we will put the values in formula,

P₁ = partial pressure of nitrogen

P₂ = partial pressure of carbon dioxide

P(total) = 984 torr + 345 torr

P(total) = 1329 torr
