Answer is: Hg (mercury).

Reactivity series is an empirical progression of a series of metals, arranged by their reactivity from highest to lowest (alkaline metals have highest reactivity and Noble metals lowest reactivity). This series are used to summarize information about the reactions of metals with acids or water, double displacement reactions (more reactive metals displace metals with lower reactivity) and the extraction of metals from their ores.

In this example, magnesium and lead are more reactive than copper, mercury is less reactive.

The energy of colored light increases in the order red, yellow, green, blue, violet.List the metallic elements used in the flame

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Flame test:

The metals ions can be detected through the flame test. Different ions gives different colors when heated on flame. Tom perform the flame test following steps should follow:

1. Dip a wire loop in the solution of compound which is going to be tested.

2. After dipping put the loop of wire on bunsen burner flame.

3. Observe the color of flame.

4. Record the flame color produce by compound

Color produce by metals:

Red = Lithium, zirconium, strontium, mercury, Rubidium (red violet)

Orange-red = calcium

Yellow = sodium, iron (brownish yellow)

Green = green

Blue = cesium. arsenic, copper, tantalum, indium, lead

Violet = potassium (lilac)

A sample of nitrogen gas is at a temperature of 50 c and a pressure of 2 atm. If the volume of the sample remains constant and t

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's law indicates that, as long as the volume of the container containing the gas is constant, as the temperature increases, the gas molecules move faster. Then the number of collisions with the walls increases, that is, the pressure increases. That is, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

Gay-Lussac's law can be expressed mathematically as follows:

$\frac{P}{T} =k$

Where P = pressure, T = temperature, K = Constant

You want to study two different states, an initial state and a final state. You have a gas that is at a pressure P1 and at a temperature T1 at the beginning of the experiment. By varying the temperature to a new value T2, then the pressure will change to P2, and the following will be fulfilled:

$\frac{P1}{T1} =\frac{P2}{T2}$

In this case:

P1= 2 atm
T1= 50 C= 323 K (being 0 C= 273 K)
P2= 3.2 atm
T2= ?

Replacing:

$\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =\frac{3.2 atm}{T2}$

Solving:

$T2*\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =3.2 atm$

$T2=3.2 atm*\frac{323 K}{2 atm}$

T2= 516.8 K= 243.8 C

The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.

Estimate your de Broglie wavelength when you are running. (For this problem use h = 10^−34 in SI units and 1 lb is equivalent to

AlekseyPX

Answer:

A. your running speed 1.5 m/s

B. your mass 70 kg

C. your de Broglie wavelength $6.32x10^{-36}$ m

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the equation for the calculation of the Broglie wavelength is:

$\lambda =\frac{h}{m*v}$

We can assume a running speed of about 1.5 m/s and a mass of 70 kg, so the resulting Broglie wavelength is:

$\lambda =\frac{6.626x10^{-34}kg\frac{m}{s} }{70kg*1.5\frac{m}{s} }\\\\\lambda =6.32x10^-36m$

Best regards!

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

1.8×10^-2mm or 0.018mm

Explanation:

Density = mass/Volume

But volume= area×thickness

Area= 50ft2= 46451.52cm2

Mass=8oz= 226.7962g

Density= 2.70g/cm3

Thickness= mass/density ×area

= 226.7962/46451.52×2.70= 1.8×10-3cm= 1.8×10^-2mm
