Answer: If the outermost shell has 1–4 electrons, it is a metal.

If the outermost shell has 5–7 electrons, it is a non-metal.

Metal elements have 1,2,3 or 4 electrons in the outer most shell while non metals have 5,6 or 7 electrons.
Example - Carbon
atomic number - 6
electron configuration - 2,4
Meaning it has 4 electrons in its outer most shell which makes it a METAL.

Answer:

The new volume of the balloon is 38.5 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume at the start = V1 = 35.0 L

Temperature at the start = T1 = 303 Kelvin

Volume by 3pm = TO BE DETERMINED

Temperature by 3pm = 333 Kelvin

<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the new volume

Charles' gas law says

V1/T1  = V2/T2

V 1  is the initial volume and T1 is the initial temperature

V2 is the final volume and T2 is the final temperature

35 L / 303 Kelvin = V2 / 333 Kelvin

V2 = 35L * 333 Kelvin / 303 Kelvin

V2 = 38.47L ≈ 38.5 L

The new volume of the balloon is 38.5 L

How do you do these?
Agata [3.3K]

Solve these problems like weighted averages:

The first one:

Multiply the masses (isotope numbers) by the decimal form of the percentage. Add them

0.076 (6) + 0.924 (7) = 6.924


The second one:

0.2 (10) + 0.8 (11) = 10.8


If you think about it, these answers make sense. 6.924 is much closer to 7 than to 6 (since there's a lot more lithium-7 than there is lithium-6). 10.8 is closer to 11 than to 10.
