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.

A pendulum has a length of 2 m and a 30 kg mass hanging on the end. What is the period of the
anastassius [24]

Answer:

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

Explanation:

Hi!

The formula that you will want to use to solve this question is:

T = 2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}  }

T--> period

L --> length of the pendulum

g --> acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)

since we know that the mass of the bob at the end of the pendulum does not affect the period of the pendulum, we can go ahead and ignore that bit of information (unless, of course, the weight causes the pendulum to stretch)

so now we can plug in our given info into the formula above and solve!

T = 2*pi * sqrt(2/9.8)

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

*Note*

- I used 3.14 to pi, if you need to use a different value for pi (a longer version, etc) your answer will be slightly different

I hope this helped!
