The answer would be: <span>dependent on the number of particles
If you see the ideal gas formula you know that volume is directly related to the number of particles. Closed container volume could influence the pressure that will change the volume but the question seems to talk about open container. If the container is not closed, then the volume of container won't have any effect. Mass is related to the number of particles, but not directly related to volume so this option is a bit ambiguous.</span>
Magnesium is an alkali earth metal and chlorine is a nonmetal. Due to this, and their differences in electronegativity, the elements form an ionic bond. Since magnesium has two valence electrons, it will give them up to two chlorine atoms (which has 7 valence electrons), which needs them to complete its octet. From this, magnesium forms a cation, and will have the ion formula Mg(2+). The two chlorine atoms form anions, and will have the ion formula Cl(1-).
Terms:
Cation: a positively charged ion
Anion: a negatively charge ion.
Electronegativity: the tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself.
If we look at the electron configuration closely, we will discover that the element must have had a ground state electron configuration of 2,4.
This is because, the innermost shell usually holds two electrons while the outer shells hold eight electrons each. The four electrons must be accommodated in the second shell in the ground state configuration of the compound.
However, when the atom is excited, one electron from this shell may move to the third shell to give the excited state configuration 2-3-1 as shown in the question.
The heat generated when chemical, transport, or mechanical work is done by the organism is lost to the environment.
The the matter from one organism to the other is transferred via energy. The producer's produce and consumer's consume this energy according to 10% law. Most of the energy is lost (90% ) to the environment in form of heat.
Faraday's constant will be smaller than it is supposed to be.
Explanation:
If the copper anode was not completely dry when its mass was measured, mass of the copper must be heavier than it should have been. Hence, the calculated Faraday’s constant would be smaller than it is supposed to be since when calculating Faraday’s Constant, the charge transferred is divided by the moles of electrons.
