Explanation:

<u>Answer:</u> The size of the atoms increases as the atomic number of the elements in Group II-A increases.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic radius of an atom is defined as the total distance from the nucleus to the outermost shell of the atom.

On moving from top to bottom, an extra shell around the nucleus is added and the outermost shell gets far away from the nucleus and hence, the distance between the nucleus and outermost shell increases. Thus, increasing the atomic radii of the atom on moving from top to bottom.

We are given:

Atoms that are present in Group II-A are Beryllium (Z = 4), Magnesium (Z = 12), Calcium (Z = 20), Strontium (Z = 38), Barium (Z = 56) and Radium (Z = 88)

As, the atomic number increases on moving down the group, so does the atomic radius of the atoms in the group.

Hence, the size of the atoms increases as the atomic number of the elements in Group II-A increases.

Calculate the mass of sucrose needed to prepare a 2000 grams of 2.5% sucrose solution.
meriva

Answer:

50 g Sucrose

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of solution: 2000 g
  • Concentration of the solution: 2.5%

Step 2: Calculate the mass of sucrose needed to prepare the solution

The concentration of the solution is 2.5%, that is, there are 2.5 g of sucrose (solute) every 100 g of solution. The mass of sucrose needed to prepare 2000 g of solution is:

2000 g Solution × 2.5 g Sucrose/100 g Solution = 50 g Sucrose

If fluorine 20 undergoes beta decay , what will it become ?
e-lub [12.9K]
Fluorine 20 (F - Atomic number 9 and atomic mass 20). Firstly we need to know what is beta decay. Beta decay occurs when one neutron changes into a proton and an electron therefore the atomic mass will remain the same as even though we loose a neutron it is replaced by a proton, the atomic number is always raised by 1 when one beta decay occurs. The produced electron is shot out of the nucleus at an incredible speed. This speedy electron we call a beta particle.

Ok now the reaction.

 20       20        0
F  -> Ne    +     e
 9         10       -1

Remember the atomic number determines the nature of the element ( i.e what elemnt it is).
Hope this helps :).

EXPERIMENT: THE CABBAGE INDICATOR
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

EXPERIMENT: THE CABBAGE INDICATOR

Here are your goals for this lesson:

Use indicator for each substance to determine if substance is an acid or a base

Summarize results and the experimental method

You can use the natural indicator in red cabbage juice to determine which household liquids are acids or bases. If no change in the color of the cabbage juice takes place, the liquid is neither an acid nor base; it is neutral.

Acids and bases are opposites. When an acids and base are mixed, they neutralize each other. You can use an indicator to see the neutralized reaction. The cabbage juice will change color when the liquids are neutralized.

Online Lab

This video will demonstrate how an indicator, in this case, cabbage indicator, can be used to determine whether a solution is acidic or basic. As you watch the video, remember to record your data and observations to use to present your findings.

Compile a summary of your findings from this experiment. Include your hypothesis, observations, data, and conclusions. Be sure to answer the questions below as well as explaining the method and results.

What is the intermolecular force of NH3
Dominik [7]
ANSWER:
London dispersion and hydrogen bonds.


EXPLANATION :
Every molecule experiences London dispersion as an intermolecular force.since the ammonia ion has hydrogen atoms bonded to nitrogen,a very electronegative atom,the molecule is also polar since the nitrogen atom more strongly pulls on the electrons from the hydrogen atoms than the hydrogens themselves do.

This effect is similar to that water,where the oxygen pulls the electrons of the hydrogen atoms with a greater magnitude,resulting in the oxygen having a partial negative charge and the hydrogens having a partial positive charge relative to each other.

This polarity shows that the molecule has dipole-dipole intermolecular forces but since the polarity is from a result of highly electronegative atoms (such as nitrogen,oxygen,fluorine) and hydrogen atoms actually bonded to them,the polarity is categorized in it's own intermolecular force called a hydrogen bond.
