Chemistry

4 0

Answer:

a. AlCl is incorrect because Al has a +3 charge while Cl only has a -1 charge. The correct formula would be AlCl₃. This balances the charges.

b. Na₃SO₄ is incorrect because Na has a charge of +1 and there are three of them so its +3 and SO₄ has a charge of -2. The correct formula would be Na₂SO₄. This balances the charges.

c. BaOH₂ is incorrect because the polyatomic ion OH would not be written that way. It would be written like this Ba(OH)₂. Writing it like BaOH₂ gives the impression that instead of having 2 OH it has 2 H and 1 O.

d. Fe₂O is incorrect because Fe either has a +2 charge or +3 charge while O has a -2 charge. Possible correct answers could be FeO (iron (II) oxide) or Fe₂O₃ (iron (III) oxide).

some infrared radiation reaches earth and sum does not with part does reach earth longer wave length or short wave length
Ede4ka [16]
The answer is long wave length because long wave lengths contians less energy, and would not harm living things such as plants and animals. the more engey a wave length has, the less harmful it is.

short wave length: lots of energy, extremely hot. (examples: gamma rays, and UV (ultraviolet) rays.

long wave lengths: not much energy, safe for humans and other life on Earth.

hopefully this helps.

What does the position of lithium (Li) on the periodic table tell you about its tendency to react with other elements?
Karolina [17]
For metals (lithium) reactivity increases down a group and from right to left across a period. So lithium is not that reactive. I think ‍♀️
