Answer:
Magnesium has 2 valence electrons.
Explanation:
The atomic number of magnesium is 12. This means that it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. The first electron shell can hold 2 electrons, the second can hold 8, so the third will have 2 electrons. The outermost shell of the atom has two electrons. Therefore, magnesium has 2 valence electrons.
Answer:
This metal has a specific heat of 0.9845J/ g °C
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
q = m*ΔT *Cp
⇒with m = mass of the substance
⇒with ΔT = change in temp = final temperature T2 - initial temperature T1
⇒with Cp = specific heat (Cpwater = 4.184J/g °C) (Cpmetam = TO BE DETERMINED)
Step 2: Calculate specific heat
For this situation : we get for q = m*ΔT *Cp
q(lost, metal) = q(gained, water)
- mass of metal(ΔT)(Cpmetal) = mass of water (ΔT) (Cpwater)
-5 * (15-100)(Cpmetal) = 20* (15-10) * (4.184J/g °C =
-5 * (-85)(Cpmetal) = 418.4
Cpmetal = 418.4 / (-5*-85) = 0.9845 J/g °C
This metal has a specific heat of 0.9845J/ g °C
Answer:
the sodium nitrate in this investigation is
a) the solute
b) undergoing chemical change
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
generally, solute is the substance which is added in solvent.
The substance which is taken in relatively more volume is the solvent.
so, here sodium nitrate (NaNO₃) is the solute which is dissolved in water (H₂O) , which is solvent.
The reaction between them is :
NaNO₃ + H₂O ⇒ Na⁺ (aq) + NO₃⁻ (aq) ; (aq) denotes aqueous;
so, here sodium nitrate undergoes chemical change into aqueous sodium ions(Na⁺) and aqueous nitrate ions(NO₃⁻).
Explanation:
The visible light is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum with the range of 400nm to 700nm.
Visible light is made up of all the colors we can perceive.
- The electromagnetic spectrum is a series of radiation.
- The most energetic have the highest frequency and lowest wavelength.
- The visible light is part of the spectrum.
- It is the part of the spectrum that allows for sight.
