Answer;

C. unchanged rock and mineral fragments

Explanation;

A large number of landforms and features found in desert environments are formed as the result of weathering. Weathering is defined as the breakdown and deposition of rocks by weather acting in situ

The two main types of weathering which occur in deserts are Mechanical weathering, which is the disintegration of a rock by mechanical forces that do not change the rock's chemical composition and Chemical weathering, which is the decomposition of a rock by the alteration of its chemical composition.

By contrast much of the weathered debris in deserts has resulted from mechanical weathering. Chemical weathering, however, is not completely absent in deserts. Over long time spans,clays and thin soils do form.

Will bromine react with sodium and why?
Archy [21]

<span><span>When you write down the electronic configuration of bromine and sodium, you get this

Br: </span></span>

<span><span>Na:  (2e)
Br:  (7e, you don't count for the d orbitals)

Then, once you know this, you can deduce how many bonds each can do and you discover that bromine can do one bond since he has one electron missing in his p orbital, but that weirdly, since the s orbital of sodium is full and thus, should not make any bond.

However, it is possible for sodium to come in an excited state in wich he will have sent one of its electrons on an higher shell to have this valence configuration:</span></span>

</span>where here now it has two lonely valence electrons, one on the s and the other on the p, so that it can do a total of two bonds.</span><span>That's why bromine and sodium can form </span>

When a nonmetal oxide reacts with water, it forms an oxoacid with the same oxidation number as the nonmetal. Give the name and f

Addition of chlorine to water gives both hydrochloric acid (HCl) and hypochlorous acid (HClO)

What are Transition metal oxides ?

Transition metal oxides (TMOs) are another class of nanomaterials, frequently used as anode in alkaline batteries due to their distinctive properties such as abundant active sites, short diffusion pathways, low preparation cost, high theoretical capacity and distinct reaction mechanism.

Cl2 + H2O ⇌ HClO + HCl

Cl2 + 4 OH− ⇌ 2 ClO− + 2 H2O + 2 e−

Cl2 + 2 e− ⇌ 2 Cl−

The acid can also be prepared by dissolving dichlorine monoxide in water; under standard aqueous conditions, anhydrous hypochlorous acid is currently impossible to prepare due to the readily reversible equilibrium between it and its anhydride.

2 HClO ⇌ Cl2O + H2O      K (at 0 °C) = 3.55×10−3 dm3 mol−1

The presence of light or transition metal oxides of copper, nickel, or cobalt accelerates the exothermic decomposition into hydrochloric acid and oxygen

2 Cl2 + 2 H2O → 4 HCl + O2

What elements would likely form an ionic bond?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

b. Mg & Cl

a. transferred

46

Explanation:

Ionic bonds form between metals and non-metals when electrons are transferred from one specie to another.

  • The electrostatic attraction from the resulting ions forms the ionic bonds.
  • A metal is electropositive and will readily donate electrons
  • A non-metal is electronegative and will accept electrons.
  • This creates two oppositely charge ions that attracts by means of ionic bonding.

Since Mg and Cl are the only metal - non-metal pair, and ionic bond will form between them.

2.

  In the specie;

          ₄₇Ag¹⁺

47 is the atomic number of the element Ag.

The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. For a specie in neutral state, the number of protons and electrons are the same.

  • When an atom loses electron, it becomes positively charged.
  • Here Ag has lost one electron and then, the number of electrons becomes 46.
  • The number of protons is still 47
