A first place finisher in a cross country meet ran 5,000 meters in 871.7 seconds. What was his average speed?​

Chemistry

Serjik [45]2 years ago
6 0

Answer : His average speed was, 5.735 m/s

Solution : Given,

Total distance covered = 5000 meter

Total time taken = 871.7 seconds

Average speed : It is defined as the total distance covered in total amount of time.

Formula used :

\text{Average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Total time taken}}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get his average speed.

\text{Average speed}=\frac{5000m}{871.7s}=5.735m/s

Therefore, his average speed was, 5.735 m/s

Element at Extreme Left In Periodic Table:
                                                                   The elements of Group I-A (1) are present at extreme left of the periodic table. They are called as Alkali Metals. Alkali Metals are strong metals. These elements can easily loose their valence electron. The valence shell electronic configuration of these elements is,

                                                     ns¹

where n is principle quantum number, which shows main energy level or shell. These metals can gain Noble gas configuration (stable configuration) either by loosing one electron or by gaining seven or more electrons. As it is quite reasonable to loose one electron instead of gaining seven or more electrons so these element easily loose one electron to gain noble as configuration. The Metallic character decreases along the period from left to right. So Group II-A (2) are second most metallic elements and so on. These metals at extreme left mainly exist in solid form.

Element at Extreme Right In Periodic Table:
                                                                     Elements present at extreme right of the periodic table lacks the properties of metallic character and act as non-Metals. They have almost complete outermost shell or have the deficiency of one or two electrons. They are not as hard as metallic elements and they exist with complete octet like in Noble gases, or deficient with one electron (Halogens) or two electrons (oxygen group). These elements tend to gain or accept electron if their valence shell is deficient with required number of elements. Like the valence electronic configuration of Halogens is,

                                                   ns², np⁵

So, Halogens readily accept one electron and attain noble gas configuration. Elements at extreme left exist mainly in gas phase.

What is the volume of a 5.30g piece of aluminum? The density for aluminum is 2.70mL
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

1.96mL

Explanation:

Density = mass/volume, and rearranged to solve for volume, volume = mass/density.

So:

volume = 5.30g/2.70g/mL = 1.96mL (assuming your unit was g/mL for density)
