In rubidium oxide - Rb₂O , the ions are Rb⁺ and O²⁻
Rb is a group one element with one valence electron. To become stable it loses its outer electron to gain a complete outer shell.
Electronic configuration of Rb is - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 5s¹
Once it loses its valence electron the configuration is;
 - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 
The noble gas with this configuration is Krypton - Kr

Oxygen electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁴
Once it gains 2 electrons the configuration is  - 1s² 2s² 3p⁶
The noble gas with this configuration is Neon - Ne

Which statement is the best explanation for the graph?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The statement that correctly explains the graph attached is: "As temperature rises, gas particles are moving faster and may leave the solution."

We know that the solubility of a gas decreases with increasing temperature. This stems from the fact that the kinetic energy and velocity of gas molecules increases with increase in temperature.

That means that as a the temperature of a gas increases, its molecules move faster and are more likely to escape from solution rather than enter the solution.

This explains the decrease in the solubility of a gas with increase in temperature.

What causes pressure inside an inflated soccer ball?
ioda

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Ball bounces because of the difference in the air pressure on the outside of the ball, and opposite the point of impact, and the pressure inside of the ball. This means that the inside of the ball now has less space to contain the air molecules contained inside the ball, increasing the pressure inside the ball.
