They both have two electron shells. Period indicates number of shells.
Answer:
Melting of snow
Evaporation of water from desk
Explanation:
Processes that increase the entropy of the universe are those processes that have an increased disorderliness. We should note that there are three principal states of matter which are the liquid, gas and solid. The gaseous state is the most disorderly while the solid is the least disorderly.
Now. We can see that the cooling of a hot cup of coffee is a process that needs or leads to a loss in temperature which obviously decreases disorderliness of the universe.
The melting of snow however is a process that leads to an increase in the disorderliness of the universe. It entails moving from the solid state to the liquid state. It tends to move to a more disordered state indicating an increase in the entropy of the universe.
The evaporation of water from the desk is quite similar to that above. Hence since we are moving from the liquid to the gaseous state via evaporation, we can state that the entropy of the universe has increased since we have moved from a state with a lesser degree of disorderliness to a state that is more disordered I.e from liquid to gaseous state.
The two properties which are used to define matter are that it has mass
and it takes up space. The other properties do not necessarily apply to
each matter. Such some matter can be a conductor of heat (such as metal)
and some not (such as non metals). Likewise, some matter can be buoyant
and float on liquid of density more than it but others would not on the
liquids of density less than it. In-fact not all the matters are
conductors of energy (such as heat, sound, electricity) or at-least a
very poor conductor of energy and tend to find application as
insulating agents (non conductors). So the only thing which is
necessarily true is that the matter would definitely have mass in even
their minutest form as atom and would take up some space.
Answer:
1) 0.3g Mg
2)0.5g MgO
3)0.2g O
4)0.01mol Mg & 0.01mol O
5)0.01mol MgO
6) Empirical formula MgO
Explanation:
The mass og Mg is obtained by substracting 24.36g from 24.66g:
24.66 - 24.36 = 0.3g Mg
The ignition of Mg means that it's reacting with oxygen to form an oxide. The increase in the crucible mass after the Mg ignition is due to the addition of oxygen. However, the addition of few drops of water produces a new compound: a hydroxide. According to the oxidation state og Mg (2+), the only magnesium oxide possible is MgO. It happens because the oxidation state of oxygen in oxides is 2-. Which means that just one oxygen atom is required to electrically neutralize one magnesium atom.
We can use a conversion factor to know how much MgO is made from from 0.3 g of Mg:
*
= 0.2g O
Thereby the mass of the oxide is 0.2g O + 0.3g Mg = 0.5g MgO
We convert the mass of oxygen and magnesium to the respective amounts in moles by using conversion factors:
*
= 0.01mol O
*
= 0.01mol Mg
The moles of MgO can be obtained from:
*
= 0.01mol MgO
To obtain the empirical formula, the amount fo moles of each elements must be divided by the smallest one, in this case, 0.01.
The result for both number of Mg atoms and O atoms is 1. This can be interpreted to mean that there is a Mg atom for each O atom forming the formula unit of the compound.
The step when water is added to the compound resulting after heating does not affect the calculations necessary for the magnesium oxide.
Explanation:
Planck's law describes the spectral density of electromagnetic radiation produced by a black body in thermal equilibrium at a given temperature, where there is no net flow of matter or energy between the body and its environment.
