They bond to skin because that was their original purpose - to act as an adhesive.

It bonds to skin because
solid polymer requires the presence of water to get things started, be it in the air or on your skin. Without a little moisture, SuperGlue can't bond anything. This explains why the glue is so good at sticking fingers together.

What value of ℓℓ is not allowed for an electron in an n = 3 shell?
dlinn [17]
Every electron shell, designated by "n", has a specific number of electron subshells. The shell number has values equivalent to natural numbers (1, 2, 3, 4...), while the subshells are s, p, d and f.

The subshell that does not exist within the third shell (n = 3) is the f subshell. The energy of the f subshell is too high and cannot be accommodated in the third shell.

an oxygen tank used for scuba diving has. avolume of 12.0 L .If the pressure of the tank is known to be 204.047 atm and the temp
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer: 101 moles of oxygen are contained in the tank

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 204.047  atm

V = Volume of gas = 12.0 L

n = number of moles  = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =22.0^0C=(22.0+273)K=295K

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{204.047atm\times 12.0L}{0.0821 L atm/K mol\times 295K}=101moles

Thus 101 moles of oxygen are contained in the tank

For the reaction 2 HCl + Na2CO3 → 2 NaCl + H2O + CO2 8.0 moles of CO2 is collected at STP. What is the volume of CO2? 1. 57.6 L
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Option 5. 179L

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2 HCl + Na₂CO₃ → 2NaCl + H₂O + CO₂

The amount of collected CO₂ is 8 moles.

We apply the Ideal Gases Law at STP

STP are 1 atm of pressure and 273K of T°

P . V = n . R . T

1atm . V = 8 mol .0.082L.atm/mol.K . 273K

V = (8 mol .0.082L.atm/mol.K . 273K) / 1 atm = 179 L

What does the group number of element 114 have to do with its stability?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Super-heavy elements like 114 usually only exist for fractions of a second. ... The physicists called these magic numbers the “island of stability”, because the elements with the numbers cluster together on the periodic table, flanked on all sides by ephemeral elements that dissipate in nanoseconds.
