Correct Answer: option 1 i.e. C

Reason: 
The the compound of interest i.e.  XCl4, since there are 4 Cl atoms bonded to X. This signifies that the valency of X is 4.

There atomic number of C is 6. It's electronic configuration is giving by 1s2 2s2 2p2. Thus, there are 4 electrons in valence shell of C. This signifies that valency of C is 4. Hence the compound present in present case is CCl4.

Answer the following Question Down Below...
bonufazy [111]

The mass number of the atom is 21, the atomic number is 9, and the element is Fluorine. There are 9 protons, 9 electrons, 12 neutrons, and the elemental symbol is F.

<h3>Properties of an atom</h3>

For every atom:

  • Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus and the addition of both equals the mass number of atoms.
  • Electrons are located outside the nucleus, in orbitals.
  • Neutral atoms have the same number of electrons and protons

In the diagram:

Number of electrons = 9

Number of protons = 9

Number of neutrons = 12

Mass number = 12 + 9

                      = 21

Atomic number = number of protons

                         = 9

Element with atomic number 9 = Fluorine

Symbol of the element = F

If the reactants of wood when burning weigh 10 kgs, how much will the products weigh?
aksik [14]

Answer:

the weight of products is is equal the weight of the wood plus the weight of oxygen that was used to burn that wood, so weigh of the product is greater than 10 kilograms.

Explanation:

Conservation of mass (mass is never lost or gained in chemical reactions), during chemical reaction no particles are created or destroyed, the atoms are rearranged from the reactants to the products.

In this example wood (mostly carbon) and oxygen are reactants and carbon dioxide (mostly) is product of reaction.

How does the amount of carbon dioxide affect the rate of photosynthesis?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

There are several ways of measuring the rate of photosynthesis in the lab. These include:

the rate of oxygen output

the rate of carbon dioxide uptake

the rate of carbohydrate production

These are not perfect methods as the plant will also be respiring, which will use up some oxygen and carbohydrate and increase carbon dioxide output.

Several factors can affect the rate of photosynthesis:

light intensity

carbon dioxide concentration

temperature

The amount of chlorophyll also affects the rate of photosynthesis:

plants in lighting conditions unfavourable for photosynthesis may synthesise more chlorophyll, to absorb the light required

the effects of some plant diseases affect the amount of chlorophyll, and therefore the ability of a plant to photosynthesise

hope it helps you

What particles would you find in a nucleus of an atom
sammy [17]

Answer:

The nucleus is a collection of particles called protons, which are positively charged, and neutrons, which are electrically neutral. Protons and neutrons are in turn made up of particles called quarks. The chemical element of an atom is determined by the number of protons, or the atomic number, Z, of the nucleus.
