I would say at the top of group 17 but tbh its through out the whole group of 17 and 18....just about

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Elements of group 17 are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine. And, it is known that size of elements increases on moving down the group due to increase in number of electrons.

Since, atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. So, it needs just one more electron to stabilize itself and fluorine has the smallest size as compared to rest of the atoms of its group so, it has the ability to attract an electron more strongly towards itself.

Also, due to small size nucleus of fluorine is able to pull electrons strongly towards itself. As a result, there will be increase in its reactivity.

Thus, we can conclude that the most reactive non-metal elements are found on the periodic table at the top of group 17.

1)Light of wavelength 588.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 55.5 cm from the slit
Talja [164]

Answer:

These are Diffraction Grating Questions.

Q1. To determine the width of the slit in micrometers (μm), we will need to use the expression for distance along the screen from the center maximum to the nth minimum on one side:  

Given as  

y = nDλ/w                                                       Eqn 1

where  

w = width of slit  

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  

Making x the subject of the formula gives,  

w = nDλ/y  

Given  

y = 0.0149 m  

D = 0.555 m  

λ = 588 x 10-9 m  

and n = 3

w = 6.6x10⁻⁵m

Hence, the width of the slit w, in micrometers (μm) = 66μm

Q2. To determine the linear distance Δx, between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen

i.e we have to find the difference between distance along the screen (y₉-y₅) = Δx

Recall Eqn 1,     y = nDλ/w  

given, D = 27cm = 0.27m  

λ = 632 x 10-9 m  

w = 0.1mm = 1.0x10⁻⁴m

For the 9th order, n = 9,

y₉ = 9 x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.015m

Similarly, for n = 5,

y₅ = 5x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.0085m

Recall,  Δx = (y₉-y₅) = 0.015 - 0.0085 = 0.0065m

Hence, the linear distance Δx between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen = 6.5mm

If a gas has a gage pressure of 156 kPa, it is absolute pressure is approximately
Art [367]
In the given question, one important information for getting to the actual solution is not given and that is the atmospheric pressure. To find the approximate absolute pressure, it is needed to add the value of atmospheric pressure with the gage pressure.
Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa
Then
Absolute pressure = 156 + 100 kPa
                             = 256 KPa.

An object floats in water with 40% of its volume submerged . a)If the object was placed in methanol with a density of 0.79g/cm^3
alexandr1967 [171]

Let <em>v</em> be the object's volume. The object displaces 0.4<em>v</em> cm³ of water, which, at a density of about 0.997 g/cm³, has a weight of

<em>b</em> = (0.000997 kg/cm³) (0.4 <em>v</em> cm³) <em>g</em> ≈ 0.000391<em>v</em> N

(and <em>b</em> is also the magnitude of the buoyant force). Then the net force on the object while it's floating in water is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>b</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

so that <em>b</em> = <em>mg</em>, where <em>mg</em> is the object's weight. This weight never changes, so the object feels the same buoyant force in each liquid.

(a) In methanol, we have

<em>b</em> = 0.000391<em>v</em> N = (0.00079 kg/cm³) (<em>pv</em> cm³) <em>g</em>

where <em>p</em> is the fraction of the object's volume that is submerged. Solving for <em>p</em> gives

<em>p</em> = (0.000391 N) / ((0.00079 kg/cm³) <em>g</em>) ≈ 0.0505 ≈ 5.05%

(b) In carbon tetrachloride, we have

<em>b</em> = 0.000391<em>v</em> N = (0.00158 kg/cm³) (<em>pv</em> cm³) <em>g</em>

==>   <em>p</em> ≈ 0.0253 ≈ 2.53%

An object is in simple harmonic motion. The rate at which the object oscillates may be described using the period T, the frequen
Leto [7]

Explanation:

The relation between angular frequency and frequency is directly proportional:

\omega=2\pi f

So, if the angular frequency decreases, the frequency also decreases.

The relation between angular frequency and period is inversely proportional:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

So, if the angular frequency decreases, the period increases.

A closed loop conductor that forms a circle with a radius of 1 m is located in a uniform but changing magnetic field. If the max
lora16 [44]

Answer:

1.59 Tesla per second

Explanation:

Given that

Radius of the conductor loop, r = 1 m,

Maximum induced emf to the loop, e = 5 V,

We take an assumption, we assume that the rate which the magnetic field is changing is dB / dt.

We then go ahead to apply Farady's law of electromagnetic induction

e = rate of change of magnetic flux

e = dФ /dt

e = A * dB / dt, on substituting we see that

A = πr²

A = π * 1²

A = π, plug in the value for A

5 = 3.14 * dB / dt

dB / dt = 5/3.142

dB / dt = 1.59 Tesla per second
