Aluminum oxide can be produced during rocket launches. Show that the sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equ

Triss [41]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equals zero.

Aluminium has a charge of +3 while Oxygen has a charge of -2 on each ion.

Al203 has 2 Al atoms and 3 O atoms.

Charge on Al2O3 = 2(charge on Al ion) + 3(charge on O ion)

= 2(3) + 3(-2)

= 6 - 6

= 0

Explanation:

Aluminium has 3 electrons in the outermost shell and has the tendency to lose those 3 electrons to form a positive ion and have a complete outermost shell.

Whereas, Oxygen has 6 electrons in the outermost and has the tendency to accept two more electrons to form a negative ion and have a complete outermost shell.

In the circuit seen here, the resistor has a resistance of 3 ohms. If no change in the battery size occurs, what will happen to
Bumek [7]
The current will decrease as the resistance has now increased, meaning less current will be 'let through' the resistor. (assuming it's in series, there's no image)

1. Is there a relationship between the volume of water displaced and the total volume of the block that has anything to do with
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The volume of the block is equal to the volume of water displaced by the block.

Explanation:

Volume refers to the amount of space occupied by a given object (in this case the block). When an object such as the block is immersed in water, it displaces its own volume of water. This volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the block. Hence we can write;

Final Volume of water - Initial Volume of water= Water Displaced = Volume of the block

Recall that the density of a body is given by;

Density= mass/volume

If we obtain the volume of the block by measuring the volume of water displaced by the block, then we weigh the block using a weighing balance, we can obtain the density of the block easily from the relationship shown above.

What are some interesting facts about electrons?
Norma-Jean [14]
-- all electrons are identical
-- electrons have a negative electrical charge
-- the size of the charge is equal to the positive charge on a proton
-- but it takes about 1,840 electrons to make the mass of one proton
