Answer:

P waves move straight through all medium and S waves move only through solids in a curvy motion.

Explanation:

P waves are compression waves, this means that they can travel through all mediums, and all cores of earth, including the inner core, while S waves can only travel through solids, this makes them much more slower. P waves for example can be trackable on the other side of the earth from where the earthquake´s epicenter is, because they travel through the core of the earth, while S waves are only detectable near the epicenter of the earthquake.

Choose the answer that best completes the following statement: When an aluminum atom reacts so as to attain a noble gas electron
boyakko [2]

The options

Select one:

a. a 3- ion forms.

b. the noble gas configuration of argon is achieved.

c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.

d. the atom gains five electrons.

Answer:

c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.

Explanation:

Aluminium atom has atomic number of 13 , hence the number of electron is 13 for a neutral atom of aluminium. When aluminium atom reacts with other elements it usually gives out three electron to attain the octet configuration.

The cation representation of aluminium is Al3+ because it has loss three electron to attain the octet rule. Aluminium will be left with 10 electrons after losing 3 of it electrons. The electronic configuration will be represented as follows after losing three electrons;

1S² 2S² 2P∧6 .

At this stage the octet rule has been achieved as it will be represented as

2  8.  The first energy shell now contains two electron and the second energy shell contains 8 electrons.

The configuration of  Neon has been formed in the process.

Please help me out i don’t get this. what is the answers to 1-4.
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

1. A circuit is a path that electricity flows along. It starts at a power source, like a battery, and flows through a wire to a light bulb or other object and back to other side of the power source.

2. A series circuit is one that has more than one resistor, but only one path through which the electricity (electrons) flows. All the components in a series circuit are connected end-to-end. A resistor in a circuit is anything that uses some of the power from the cell.

3. A parallel circuit is a circuit in which the electric current passes through two or more branches or connected parts at the same time before it combines again. Compare.

4. BOTH - 1. lightbulb 2. battery 3. switch

   SERIES- 1. Ammeter 2. voltmeter

i'm not sure about the rest sorry :(

Describe the electrons in an atom of carbon in the ground state. Your response must
zepelin [54]

Based on the information given, it should be noted that the ground-state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2.

<h3>What is an electron?</h3>

Electrons are simply the subatomic particles which orbit the nucleus of an atom.

The arrangement of electrons in the atomic orbitals of an atom is known as the electron configuration. This can be determined by using a periodic table.

It should be noted that carbon is the sixth element with a total of 6 electrons in the periodic table. Thus, the atomic number Z = 6.

In conclusion, the ground-state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2.

2. if 0.20 m fe3 had been used instead of 0.020 m fe3 , how would the numerical value of the rate constant and the activation en
dezoksy [38]

the calculated value is Ea is 18.2 KJ and A is 12.27.

According to the exponential part in the Arrhenius equation, a reaction's rate constant rises exponentially as the activation energy falls. The rate also grows exponentially because the rate of a reaction is precisely proportional to its rate constant.

At 500K, K=0.02s−1

At 700K, k=0.07s −1

The Arrhenius equation can be used to calculate Ea and A.

RT=k=Ae Ea

lnk=lnA+(RT−Ea)

At 500 K,

ln0.02=lnA+500R−Ea

500R Ea (1) At 700K lnA=ln (0.02) + 500R

lnA = ln (0.07) + 700REa (2)

Adding (1) to (2)

700REa100R1[5Ea-7Ea] = 0.02) +500REa=0.07) +700REa.

=ln [0.02/0 .07]

Ea= 2/35×100×8.314×1.2528

Ea =18227.6J

Ea =18.2KJ

Changing the value of E an in (1),

lnA=0.02) + 500×8.314/18227.6

= (−3.9120) +4.3848

lnA=0.4728

logA=1.0889

A=antilog (1.0889)

A=12.27

Consequently, Ea is 18.2 KJ and A is 12.27.
