Answer:

False

Explanation:

Atoms only achieve complete outer electron shells if they contain an outer shell with 7 electrons before gaining another electron or an outer shell with 1 electron before losing an electron. This is assuming that the octet-rule can be applied to said atom. In addition, the number of valence electrons varies from atom to atom which is why not ALL atoms achieve complete outer electron shells after gaining or losing just ONE electron.

Silicon has 2 isotopes, Silicon-28 with an abundance of 90% and Silicon-30 with an abundance of 10%. Find the AAM for Silicon.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

RAM

$RAM = (mass \: of \: ^{28} Si \: \times \%abundance) + (mass \: of \: ^{30} Si \: \times \%abundance) \\ RAM = (28 \times 90\%) + (30 \times 10\%) \\ RAM = 25.2 + 3 \\ RAM = 28.2$

: How much energy is required to heat an iron nail with a mass of 25.5 grams from 65°C until it becomes red hot at 720°C?

Evgen [1.6K]

Q = mct

-Q= energy in Joules

-m = mass in grams

-c= specific heat capacity in J/g degree C

-t = delta temperature in degrees Celsius

So,

Q = m c t

Q = (7 grams)(0.448J/g C)(750 C - 25 C)

Q = 2273.6 J

Your final answer = 2273.6 Joules
