Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the ability of an element or atom to readily attract electrons towards itself.

Generally, non-metals are the species which tend to show electronegativity. Whereas metals have the ability to lose electrons in order to gain stability.

Hence, metals are electropositive in nature.

For example, potassium and francium are metals.

And, astatine is a metalloid, that is, it shows properties of both metals and non-metals. Hence, it shows both electropositive and electronegative nature.

Chlorine being a non-metal is electronegative in nature and hence, it has the ability to readily attract an electron.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options chlorine element is the most electronegative.

If body fats has a density of 0.94 g/mL and 3.0 liters of fat are removed, how many pounds of fat were removed from the patient?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

6.217 pounds

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Density of body fats 0.94 g/mL
  • Volume of fats removed = 3.0 L

We are required to determine the mass of fats removed in pounds.

We need to know that;

Density = Mass ÷ volume

1 L = 1000 mL, thus, volume is 3000 mL

Rearranging the formula;

Mass = Density × Volume

         = 0.94 g/mL × 3000 mL

         = 2,820 g

but, 1 pound = 453.592 g

Therefore;

Mass = 2,820 g ÷ 453.592 g per pound

         = 6.217 pounds

Thus, the amount of fats removed is 6.217 pounds
