What will molecules do at -272 degrees celsius​

Chemistry

enot [183]3 years ago
6 0

Molecules will be very calm at - 272 °C.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

According to the temperature scale, the least temperature that we can ever achieve in our practical life is - 273°C. This is the temperature from where our kelvin scale of temperature or absolute temperature starts.

The temperature of a substance is the practical manifestation of the internal energy of the substance. And this internal energy is actually reserved in form of molecular vibrations of the substance. With increasing heat, the temperature of the substance increase because of the increase in molecular vibrations of the substance. With decrease in temperature, the vibrations lessen untill - 273°C or 0K where they become completely still. So cooling beyond that point isn't possible. So at - 272°C or 1K, the molecules will be very lightly vibrating and they will have the least possible internal energy.

The electron configuration of an element is 1s22s22p4. Describe what most likely happens when two atoms of this element move tow
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

When the two atoms move towards each other a compound is formed by sharing electron pairs supplied by each of the atoms to enable them have the stable 8 (octet) valency electrons in their outermost shell

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of the given element can be written as follows;

1s²2s²2p⁴

The given electronic configuration is equivalent to that of oxygen, therefore, we have;

The number of electrons in the valence shell = 2 + 4 = 6 electrons

Therefore, each atom requires 2 electrons to complete its 8 (octet) electrons in the outermost shell

When the two atoms move towards each other, they react and combine to form a compound by sharing 4 electrons, 2 from each atom, such that each atom can have an extra 2 electrons in its outermost orbit in the newly formed compound and the stable octet configuration is attained by each of the atoms in the newly formed compound.

The half of the moon facing the sun is always lit, but the different phases happen because:
zvonat [6]

Answer:

we only see parts of the lit side as the moon goes around the earth

Explanation:

Unlike the sun, the moon orbits the Earth. This is the reason why we see the <em>different phases of the moon.</em> The reflection of the moon is being illuminated back to us with the help of the sun. So, as the moon circles the Earth, we only see parts of the lit side. Such changes helps us see the moon in different phases such as<em> </em>the <em>Third Quarter, Crescent, New Moon, Full Moon, etc.</em>

For example, during "Full Moon," <em>the moon's entire face is lit up by the sun</em>. Thus, we see the entire moon's lit portion.

Thus, this explains the answer.

Isotope b has a half-life of 3 days. a scientist measures out 100 grams of this substance. after 6 days has passed, the scientis
Brilliant_brown [7]
So half life is the time taken for a sample to decay to half its original mass, its a constant and applies to any original mass, it could be 5g or 1kg, it will take the same amount of time for the original mass to half. In this case the half life is 3 days.

After 3 days the sample will be at half its original mass, now 50g. 

Now we can treat the 50g as if its a new sample. After another 3 days (6 days in total) there will be half of 50g left, = 25g.
