Circulating round the nucleus are the electrons in various orbits of different energy levels. Electrons are negatively charged and represented by the symbol 'e'. In the given image the number of protons are -6. Hence the element in question is Carbon as Carbon has the atomic number 6.
The answer is true. According to the second law of thermodynamics, energy tends to become more spread out
<u>Question:</u>
For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K
<u>Answer:</u>
The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

As we know that
= 0.22 V and E = 0.342 V, the equation will become








So, the mean activity coefficient is 0.78.
Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
In solids, molecules are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they are unable to move from their initial position and can only vibrate at their mean position.
Hence, a solid has definite shape and volume. Solids cannot be compressed.
Whereas in plasma, molecules are hot ionized which include positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons. They collide much more rapidly with each other and are widely spreaded out.
Therefore, they occupy the volume of container in which they are placed. Plasma can be compressed.
Thus, we can conclude that substance X is a solid and substance Y is a plasma.
