Arrange the following in order of size, from smallest to largest: polymer, monomer, carbon atom,

1 answer:

8 0

We can arrange the following entities from sizes smallest to largest in: 
1. Carbon atom. Consider the carbon atom in the periodic table which evidently small in size. Like any other atom such as hydrogen and oxygen. 
2. Monomer. Is a singular molecule that can combine itself with elongated chains and other molecules. And thus form,
3. Polymer. Polymers are made from a complex amalgamation of monomers.
4. Macromolecule. And thus the macromolecules from the word macro are the biggest component. Which forms the lipid, proteins, RNA enzymes in the cell.

How do I find the rate of reaction on a graph

Nonamiya [84]

Rate of reaction can be understood as the rate of change of the materials, such as the rate of depletion of the reactants or the rate of production of products. Therefore, if a graph of concentration and time is plotted, the rate of reaction is simply the slope of the graph.

Translation: Explain the importance of energy levels,

tigry1 [53]

Answer: Formation of a stable Duplet or Octet structure

Explanation:

Energy levels refers to the definite amount of energies that electrons can have when occupying specific orbitals.

Examples are:

Level 1 as in 1s

Level 2 as in 2s, 2p

Level 3 as in 3s 3p 3d

Level 4 as in 4s 4p 4d 4f

Level 5 as in 5s .......

Level 6 as in 6s .........

Electrons can be excited to higher energy levels by absorbing energy from the surroundings during chemical reactions and so forming chemical bonds like ionic, covalent etc.

A perfect example is Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) in Sodium chloride (NaCl)

Sodium has atomic number of 11, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s1

Chlorine has atomic number of 17, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5

You will notice that the both Na and Cl, has electrons in the energy level 3. Then, the bond formed must be one that lead to the formation of a OCTET structure: as in Na gives off its 3s1 electron TO Cl.

Thus, Cl now becomes 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6 - an OCTET STRUCTURE (with completely filled outershell and full energy level 3) in NACl.

So, a duplet or Octet structure is the answer

How much positive charge is in 0.7 kg of lithium? with each atom having 3 protons and 3 electrons. The elemental charge is 1.602

hichkok12 [17]

Explanation:

As a neutral lithium atom contains 3 protons and its elemental charge is given as $1.602 \times 10^{-19} C$ . Hence, we will calculate its number of moles as follows.

Moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

= $\frac{0.7 \times 1000 g}{7 g/mol}$

= 100 mol

According to mole concept, there are $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ atoms present in 1 mole. So, in 100 mol we will calculate the number of atoms as follows.

No. of atoms = $100 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}$

= $6.023 \times 10^{25}$ atoms

Since, it is given that charge on 1 atom is as follows.

$3 \times 1.602 \times 10^{-19}C$

= $4.806 \times 10^{-19}C$

Therefore, charge present on $6.023 \times 10^{25}$ atoms will be calculated as follows.

$6.023 \times 10^{25} atoms \times 4.806 \times 10^{-19} C$

$28.95 \times 10^{6}C$

Thus, we can conclude that a positive charge of $28.95 \times 10^{6}C$ is in 0.7 kg of lithium.
