Answer:

Iron, or Fe, has 26 electrons, with two electrons in the outer valence shell. Iron is a transition metal and is both lustrous and easy to work with. Iron is also prone to rust, especially in damp environments. Iron is a ferrous metal, meaning that it can be magnetized.

Answer:

Iron has a valency of 2+

Explanation:

The atomic number for Fe is 26, so that makes the electron configuration 2.8.8.8.2 so if you take the no. of electron it will be 2, so it will have to loose the two electrons in order to fill it's outermost electrons.

So it will develop a valency - 2+

Remember as you loose an electron the valency will be a positive but if you gain an electron the charge will be a negative

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The unbalanced chemical equation: H₂O₂ → H₂O + O₂.

The balanced chemical equation: H₂O₂ → H₂O + 1/2O₂.

Explanation:

  • Hydrogen peroxide is decomposed into oxygen and water, which is a slow reaction.
  • It is can be catalyzed by using yeast.

The unbalanced chemical equation: H₂O₂ → H₂O + O₂.

The balanced chemical equation: H₂O₂ → H₂O + 1/2O₂.

1.0 mol of H₂O₂ is decomposed to 1.0 mol of H₂O and 0.5 mol of O₂.

Which of the conservationists discussed earlier in this unit is
Arte-miy333 [17]

The correct answer is A. The conservationist credited with founding the Wilderness Society is Bob Marshall.

Bob Marshall was an American forester, botanist, traveler, climber, writer and social activist who advocated the preservation of unspoiled wildlife.

 

He actively contributed to the development and adoption of environmental regulations prohibiting the construction of roads in vast federal specially protected natural areas. In 1935 he became one of the founders of the public environmental organization The Wilderness Society and its main sponsor.  

Today Bob Marshall is considered one of the main initiators of the wildlife movement in the United States. Several geographic features are named after him, including the Bob Marshall Wilderness Nature Reserve in Montana and the Marshall Mountain on the Adirondack Ridge.

One beaker contains 100 mL of pure water and second beaker contains 100 mL of seawater. The two beakers are left side by side on
gayaneshka [121]

Explanation:

When we add a non-volatile solute in a solvent then due to the impurity added to the solution there will occur an increase in the boiling point of the solution.  

This increase in boiling point will be known as elevation in boiling point.

As one beaker contains seawater (water having NaCl) will have some impurity in it. So, more temperature is required by seawater to escape into the atmosphere.

Whereas another beaker has only pure water so it is able to easily escape into the atmosphere since, it contains no impurity.

Thus, we can conclude that level of pure water will decrease more due to non-volatile solute present in it as compared to seawater.
