Answer:

Zero or +2

Explanation:

The noble gases already have a avplete outermost shell. They are the least reactive elements of earth?

Their normal oxidation number is zero but some have been shown to be reactive.

Answer:

Explanation:

Since oxidation number is derived from the number of electron in the outermost shell of an element and further more this oxidation number is a function of how much electron is needed by an element to achieve a duplet ( He) or octet configuration ( complete outer most shell which is the attributes of group  18 elements or noble gases) and they don't readily react with any compound.. Since Xenon and argon are noble gases , they will have their outer most shell completely feel hence their oxidation number will be zero (0)

The charges that are free to move in a metallic conducting wire and that are responsible for the flow of electric current are
Anna007 [38]

Answer:Negatively charged particle called Free Electrons

Explanation:

Current is the flow of charged particles called Free electrons. Electrons are free to move from one atom to another and we call them a sea of de-localized electrons. In absence of any externally applied emf, these electrons are randomly moving but with the onset of emf, these electrons flow in a particular direction.

1.Predict the frequency of a tuning fork that emits a sound with a wavelength of 0.385 m.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

1.) Frequency F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

Explanation:

1.) Given that the wavelength = 0.385m

The speed of sound = 343 m / s

To predict the frequency, let us use the formula V = F λ

Where (λ) = wavelength = 0.385m

343 = F × 0.385

F = 343/0.385

F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Given that the frequency = 384Hz

Using the formula again

V = F λ

λ = V/F

Wavelength (λ) = 343/384

Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

The two questions can be solved with the use of formula

An 8.0 cm object is 40.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Its image is 16.0 cm in front of the mirro
svet-max [94.6K]
 We can rearrange the mirror equation before plugging our values in. 
1/p = 1/f - 1/q. 
1/p = 1/10cm - 1/40cm
1/p = 4/40cm - 1/40cm = 3/40cm
40cm=3p  <-- cross multiplication
13.33cm = p

Now that we have the value of p, we can plug it into the magnification equation.

M=-16/13.33=1.2
1.2=h'/8cm
9.6=h'

So the height of the image produced by the mirror is 9.6cm.
