The surface metabolism model evokes mineral catalysts. Surface metabolism model dissolved gases in contact with minerals lining the walls of the deep-sea hydrothermal vents and formed more complex, organic molecules while Prebiotic soup model is molecules in atmosphere or from meteorites condensed in the ocean which led to the formation of more complex molecules.

kramer

Answer:

Explanation:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}=>\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{300x10^8\frac{m}{s}}{3.7*10^{14}\frac{1}{s}}=810.8108*10^{-9}m$

Which of the following atoms could have an expanded octet when it is the central atom in a covalent compound?a) B

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

only chlorine can expand its octet.

Explanation:

An atom can expand its octet is it has empty d orbital

the electronic configuration of given elements will be:

B : 1s2 2s2 2p1 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

O :1s2 2s2 2p4 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

F : 1s2 2s2 2p5 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

Cl :1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5 3d0 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]

Out of given elements only chlorine has empty d orbitals in its valence shell

Thus only chlorine can expand its octet.

A 2.3 kg object has 15 ) of kinetic energy. Calculate its speed.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option D</h3>

Explanation:

To find the speed given the kinetic energy and mass we use the formula

$v = \sqrt{ \frac{2KE}{m} } \\$

where

m is the mass

v is the speed

From the question

KE = 15 J

m = 2.3 kg

We have

$v = \sqrt{ \frac{2 \times 15}{2.3} } = \sqrt{ \frac{30}{2.3} } \\ = 3.61157559...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.6 m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you
