Answer: correct option will D.

Explanation:

Calcium belongs to the group 2 i.e. of alkaline earth metals in periodic table. electronic configuration of calcium is [Ar]4s^2.

So in order to attain noble gas configuration calcium will loose its two electrons during chemical bond formation.

Ca\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2e^-

Sulfur is a non metal which forms negatively charged ion so as to complete ts octet during chemical bond formation.

Helium is a noble gas with fully filled electronic configuration.

Carbon forms bond which is covalent in nature.

14. I have an unknown volume of gas at a pressure of 1.2 atm and a temperature of 210 K. If I raise the pressure to 1.9 atm and
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The law is given by the following equation: PV = nRT, where P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, R is the universal gas constant, which equals 0.0821 L-atm / mole-K, and T is the temperature in Kelvin.

Which atom in each pair has the larger atomic radius?
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

1. Potassium, K.

2. Calcium, Ca.

3. Gallium, Ga.

4. Carbon, C.

5. Bromine, Br.

6. Barium, Ba.

7. Silicon, Si.

8. Gold, Au.

Explanation:

Atomic radius can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

Additionally, the unit of measurement of the atomic radius of chemical elements is picometers (1 pm = 10 - 12 m).

1. Li or K: the atomic radius of lithium is 167 pm while that of potassium is 243 pm.

2. Ca or Ni: the atomic radius of calcium is 194 pm while that of nickel is 149 pm.

3. Ga or B: the atomic radius of gallium is 136 pm while that of boron is 87 pm.

4. O or C: the atomic radius of oxygen is 48 pm while that of carbon is 67 pm.

5. Cl or Br: the atomic radius of chlorine is 79 pm while that of bromine is 94 pm.

6. Be or Ba: the atomic radius of berryllium is 112 pm while that of barium is 253 pm.

7. Si or S: the atomic radius of silicon is 111 pm while that of sulphur is 88 pm.

8. Fe or Au: the atomic radius of iron is 156 pm while that of gold is 174 pm.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

3.00 × 10¹¹ g

Explanation:

According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Texas had 4,015,000 beef cows in 2013. One beef cow produces 205 grams of methane per day. The methane produced by the beef cows in Texas per day is:

4,015,000Cow \times \frac{205gCH_4}{cow \times day} = \frac{8.23 \times 10^{8}gCH_4}{day}

Each year has 365 days. The methane produced by the beef cows in Texas per year is:

\frac{8.23 \times 10^{8}gCH_4}{day} \times \frac{365day}{1y} = 3.00 \times 10^{11}gCH_4
