gulaghasi [49]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

6 elements.

Explanation:

99.9% by weight of most living things is made of the six elements: hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur (backwards using just the letter abbreviations this spells SPONCH).

The quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1⁰c is defined as
Alex
Specific heat is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. It is the amount per unit mass that is required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. Every substance has its own specific heat and each has its own distinct value. The units of specific heat are joules per gram-degree Celsius (J/f C) and sometimes J/Kg K may also be used.

harkovskaia [24]
Kinetic energy is 1/2m*v^2
They already halved the mass for you and they already squared the velocity for you. I’m unsure why you’re even asking this question. It’s simple multiplication at this point.
(27.5kg)*(4m^2/s^2) = 110 Jules

Electronegativity is a measure of an atom’s affinity for electrons. Which of the following statements is true? Electronegativity
jekas [21]

Answer: Electronegativity increases as the size of an atom decrease.

Explanation: Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom in a bond to attract electrons to itself.

Electronegativity increases across a period and decreases down a group.

Towards the left of the table, valence shells are less than half full, so these atoms (metals) tend

to lose electrons and have low electronegativity. Towards the right of the table, valence shells are more than half full, so these atoms (nonmetals) tend to gain electrons and have high electronegativity.

Down a group, the number of energy levels (n) increases, and so does the distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. The increased distance and the increased shielding weaken the nuclear attraction, and so an atom can’t attract electrons as strongly.
