I use small cardboard<span> boxes for organizing drawers, etc,---also break them down and use it in the garden to kill weeds, and I add some to my compost. ... side to one edge that's somewhat shorter </span>than<span> the magazine, to enable one to remove one magazine without removing the </span>whole<span> box from the shelf.</span>

This is because little pieces of cardboard is the same thing as splitting the weight, so splitting the weight of it means the total of all the pieces won't be exactly the same as a whole cardboard.

Which element in each of the following sets would you expect to have the lowest IE₃?

AysviL [449]

Answer:

(a) AL

(b) Sc

(c)Al

Explanation:

Ionization Energy is the energy required to remove electrons from the outer most orbitals of atom.

The higher the electron is on energy level the farther its from nucleus and more loosely bonded thus need lesser energy.

By looking at electron configuration we can figure out which electron will need more energy.

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s², 3d¹

Na₁₁ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s¹

Mg₁₂ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²

Al₁₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 2p¹

Al will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

K₁₉⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s²

Ca₂₀⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s²

Sc₂₁⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s², 3d¹

Sc will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

Li₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s¹

Al₁₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 2p¹

B₅ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p¹

Al will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

Hi! help me please. CALCULATE THE NUMBER OF MOLECULES FOUND IN 8 MOL OF WATER?

kvasek [131]

Answer:

so the number of molecules in 8 moles of water is 4.8176×10^24

Explanation:

number of moles=8moles

avogadro's number=6.022×10²³

number of molecules=?

as we know that

$number of moles=\frac{number of molecules}{avogadro's number}$

substituting the equation

number of moles × avogdro's number=number of molecules

number of molecules=8moles×6.022×10²³

number of molecules=4.8176×10^24

i hope this will help you :)

The element thallium is 70% thallium-205 and 30% thallium-203. Calculate its relative atomic mass to 1 decimal place.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

answer-

The relative atomic mass = 204.4

explanation:

Thallium -203 = 30%

Thallium -205 = 70%

Therefore ,

relative mass of thallium = (30×203 + 70×205)/100

relative mass of thallium = (20440)/100

relative mass of thallium = 204.40 amu

Thus,

relative atomic mass of thalium =204.4 ( to 1 decimal place)

Sodium carbonate (NaCO3) is sometimes used as a water-softening agent. Suppose that a worker prepares a 0.730 M solution of NaCO

sergey [27]

The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of a substance divided by the volume in liters prepared.

$molarity=\frac{n}{V}$ , where n is number of moles and V is the volume in liters.

In order to calculate the mass of solute we need to convert the volume and molarity to moles

$1.421 L solution \times\frac{0.0730 moles}{1 Lsolution}= 1.037 mol NaCO_3$

Now that we have moles we use the relative formula mass of NaCO₃, We have 1 Na atom, 1 C atom and 3 O atoms, thus

$M_r= (1\times 22.99) + (1\times 12.00) + (3\times 16.00)= 82.99g/mol$

$1.037 \times\frac{82.99g}{mol} = 86.1g$

Why don't some people want a relationship with God?

mr_godi [17]

Some fear that they won't be able to have fun anymore if they accept God, some are afraid of what others might think of them if they accept God, some think they are too messed up to have a relationship with God, and the list goes on and on. Who knows why someone would refuse.
Hope this helps~!
