Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom and those that are in the outer energy levels are _____.

1 answer:

4 0

More attracted to the nucleus because they are further from the nucleus. In addition, the screening effect, repulsion of inner electrons on the valence electrons, will effectively reduce the attraction of the valence electrons toward the nucleus.

The barometric pressure at sea level is 30 in of mercury when that on a mountain top is 29 in. If the specific weight of air is

stealth61 [152]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to pressure, depending on the product between the density of the fluid, the gravity and the depth / height at which it is located.

For mercury, density, gravity and height are defined as

$\rho_m = 846lb/ft^3$

$g = 32.17405ft/s^2$

$h_1 = 1in = \frac{1}{12} ft$

For the air the defined properties would be

$\rho_a = 0.0075lb/ft^3$

$g = 32.17405ft/s^2$

$h_2 = ?$

We have for equilibrium that

$\text{Pressure change in Air}=\text{Pressure change in Mercury}$

$\rho_m g h_1 = \rho_a g h_2$

Replacing,

$(846)(32.17405)(\frac{1}{12}) = (0.0075)(32.17405)(h_2)$

Rearranging to find $h_2$

$h_2 = \frac{(846)(32.17405)(\frac{1}{12}) }{(0.0075)(32.17405)}$

$h = 9400ft$

Therefore the elevation of the mountain top is 9400ft

BigorU [14]

Heptane is always composed of 84.0% carbon and 16.0% hydrogen. This illustrates the "law of definite proportions".

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Proust's law states that every chemical compound used to made up of element constituents with constant proportions in terms of its mass and also independent from its sources and synthesis method. In 1779, Joseph Proust gave other names to the Proust's law as, the law of composition or definite proportions or constant compositions.

This can understood from given example like: Oxygen is composed of 8/9 of the mass of any sample of pure water while the hydrogen fills up the remaining 1/9 of the mass. The basis of stoichiometry is structured with the law of multiple proportions along the law of definite proportions.

If a population is growing what can you conclude about the ammount of resources available

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Generally speaking, as the human population grows, our consumption of natural resources increases. More humans consume more freshwater, more land, more clothing, etc. ... For example, natural gas plants have become increasingly more efficient, thus humans are able to obtain more energy out of the same amount of gas.

Rapid population growth is detrimental to achieving economic and social progress and to sustainable management of the natural resource base. But there remains a sizeable gap between the private and social interest in fertility reduction, and this gap needs to be narrowed.
