You believe you have cracked a secret code that uses elemental symbols to spell words. The code uses numbers to designate the el

emental symbols. Each number is the sum of the atomic number and the highest principal quantum number of the highest occupied orbital of the element whose symbol is to be used. The message may be written forward or backward. Decode the following messages.

Stells [14]3 years ago

Explanation:

Atomic numbers for neutral atoms are the same as the number of electrons. The number of electrons are used in writing the subshell notation where we can see the highest princpal quantum number(n).

In order to solve this problem, a good knowledge of the periodic table and shell notation is required.  

For example;  

  Given a number 5;  

     We know the number is made of both the atomic number of the element and the highest quantum number.  

  It is easier for us to know the highest quantum number from the shell notation:  

        shell notation 1s²2s²2p¹

        highest principal quantum number is 2

  We are left with atomic number 5-2, which is 3

           The element is therefore Li.  

Part A.   5,     30,      58,      56,     99,     79,    19,     98,     9

             Li       Fe        I         Sb       U       Ta      S      Pa     N

Part B.   9,    99,    30,     95,     19,     47,     79

             N      U       Fe      Ra      S       Mo     Ta

What is wrong with the following explanation of an experiment? When it was heated, the sample of carbon decomposed.
Drupady [299]
"Carbon" is an element. It is found in the fourth group of the periodic table, and it is a stable element. This means that it can not be decomposed via heating, because if an element were to break down, it would release its subatomic particles. The explanation was probably one used to describe the thermal decomposition of a compound into smaller compounds.

Noah and Nina are 15 m apart in a closed room. Noah says the same sentence twice. The first time, Nina does not hear the sound,
In-s [12.5K]

The air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser, so the sound is louder.

<h3>What is a sound wave?</h3>

Sound waves are longitudinal waves that travel through a medium like air or water.

In a closed room, Noah and Nina are sitting 15 m apart.

As Noah says the same sentence twice, Nina does not hear the sound the first time but she does hear the sentence the second time.

This happens as the air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser. As a result, the sound is louder.

The correct option is ''The air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser, so the sound is louder''.

What is the final pressure of a system (atm) that has the volume increased from 0.75 l to 1.1 l with an initial pressure of 1.25
lana66690 [7]
Boyle's law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume of gas at constant temperature 
PV = k
where P - pressure , V - volume and k - constant 
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation 
substituting these values in the equation 
1.25 atm x 0.75 L = P x 1.1 L
P = 0.85 atm 
final pressure is B) 0.85 atm
