The correct answer is Sodium
KengaRu [80]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

sodium (Na)

Explanation:

The valence electron configuration of the given elements are as follows:

Sodium (Na) = 3s¹

Boron (B) = 2s²2p¹

Magnesium (Mg) = 3s²

Lithium (Li) = 2s¹

The valence electron configuration of beryllium (Be) = 2s²

The outer shell in Na is 3s i.e. n = 3 relative to that of Be where n = 2

Also the valence shell in Na has 1 s electron i.e. one electron lower than Be.

What is the potential energy of a puppy that weighs 18 N istting in a high chair 2 m high?
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Potential energy =mass* acceleration due to gravity * height

mass*acceleration due to gravity =weight

hence potential energy of the puppy= weight * height

=18*2

=36 joule

Select the option that best summarizes the reason for the use of position-time graphs when studying physical science. (1 point)
Sedaia [141]

The position-time graphs show the relationship between the position of an object (shown on the y-axis) and the time (shown on the x-axis) to show velocity.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

Velocity is a vector quantity that tells the distance an object has traveled over a period of time.

Displacement is a vector quality showing total length of an area traveled by a particular object.

Imagine a time-position graph where the velocity of an object is constant. What will be observed on the graph concerning the slope of the line segment as well as the velocity of the object?

The slope of the line is equal to zero and the object will be stationary.

The position-time graphs show the relationship between the position of an object (shown on the y-axis) and the time (shown on the x-axis) to show velocity.
