Answer:

The correct answer is option 3, It becomes a positive ion and its radius decreases

Explanation:

As per the Octet rule, Barium has 2 electrons in its outermost shell. When it loses the two electron it gains two positive charge i.e Ba2+. As the barium loses the two electron from its outermost shell, the outermost shell becomes vacant and thus is no more considered as a part of atomic geometry of the barium atom and since the outermost shell is considered negligible the radius of barium atom reduces automatically.

<h2>Changes Occurs when a Barium Atom - Option 3  </h2>

When a barium atom loses two electrons it becomes a positive ion and its radius decreases. Barium (Ba) has atomic number 56 so it has 2 electrons in first shell of an atom to become stable according to duplet rule. Then other 52 electrons revolve in the shells according to octet rules.

Another 2 electrons are in the outermost shell. To become stable electrons lose to form barium ions (Ba+2). Hence, by losing 2 electrons the outermost shell will be diminished so its radius decreases and by losing electrons it becomes positive ions.

Find the % composition for each element in Zn(CIO3)2
bezimeni [28]

Zn = 28.15%

Cl = 30.53%

O = 41.32%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Zn(CIO3)2 compound

Required

The % composition

Solution

Ar Zn = 65.38

Ar Cl = 35,453

Ar O = 15,999

MW Zn(CIO3)2 = 232.3

Zn = 65,38/232.3 x 100% = 28.15%

Cl = (2 x 35.453) / 232.3 x 100% = 30.53%

O = (6 x 15.999) / 232.3 x 100% = 41.32%

Which option is an example of a chemical property?
strojnjashka [21]
Answer: B= Rusting ability
Explanation:
Physical property is defined as the property which can be measured and whose value describes the state of physical system. For Example: State, density etc.
Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which is observed during a reaction where the chemical composition identity of the substance gets changed.
1. Boiling point: is a physical property as there is a change of state.
2. Rusting ability: is a chemical property as there is formation of new substances.
3. Melting point: is a physical property as there is a change of state.
4. Density: is a physical property as there is no formation of new substances.

Classify each amino acid into the following categories. Select the amino acid that fits best in each category. Each amino acid w
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

1. Lysine

2. Aspartic acid

3. Serine

4. Alanine

5. Tryptophan

Explanation:

Amino acids are biomolecules that contain two functional groups and one R side chain. The two functional groups are: carboxyl group and amino group.

The α-amino acids are the amino acids in which the two functional groups and the R side chain are attached to the α-carbon of the amino acid. They are total 22 α-amino acids.

1. A basic amino acid: Lysine is a positively charged, polar basic amino acid with a lysyl side chain.

2. An acidic amino acid: Aspartic acid is a negatively charged, polar acidic amino acid with an acidic carboxymethyl group.

3. A neutral polar amino acid: Serine is a polar and neutral amino acid with a hydroxymethyl group.

4. A non-polar aliphatic amino acid: Alanine is an aliphatic, nonpolar and neutral amino acid with a methyl side chain.

5. An aromatic amino acid: Tryptophan is an aromatic, nonpolar and neutral amino acid with an indole side chain.

Please need this ASAP. Calculate the mass of lime, CaO, that would be produced from 250 tonnes of limestone,
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

1.4×10⁸ g of CaO

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 250 tonnes to grams (g). This can be obtained as follow:

1 tonne = 1×10⁶ g

Therefore,

250 tonne = 250 × 1×10⁶

250 tonne = 2.5×10⁸ g

Next, the balanced equation for the reaction.

CaCO₃ —> CaO + CO₂

Next, we shall determine the mass of CaCO₃ that decomposed and the mass CaO produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of CaCO₃ = 40 + 12 + (16×3)

= 40 + 12 + 48

= 100 g/mol

Mass of CaCO₃ from the balanced equation = 1 × 100 = 100 g

Molar mass of CaO = 40 + 16

= 56 g/mol

Mass of CaO from the balanced equation = 1 × 56 = 56 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

100 g of CaCO₃ decomposed to produce 56 g of CaO.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CaO produced by the decomposition of 250 tonnes (i.e 2.5×10⁸ g) of CaCO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

100 g of CaCO₃ decomposed to produce 56 g of CaO.

Therefore, 2.5×10⁸ g of CaCO₃ will decompose to produce =

(2.5×10⁸ × 56)/100 = 1.4×10⁸ g of CaO.

Thus, 1.4×10⁸ g of CaO will be obtained from 250 tonnes (i.e 2.5×10⁸ g) of CaCO₃.
