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

How do the bonds differ in<br> each type?
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Bonds basically differs with each other due to sharing of electrons .

Explanation:

There are majorly three kinds of bonds

1. Ionic bonds which forms due to an element donate an electron to another element completely .

2. covalent bonds which forms with the mutual sharing of electrons b/w two atoms .

3. metallic bonds which forms b/w metals & they share electrons due to electron negativity difference b/w two atoms or elements

How long will it take for a 750 mg sample of radium with a half life of 15 days to decay to exactly 68mg?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

52 da  

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever a question asks you, "How long to reach a certain concentration?" or something similar, you must use the appropriate integrated rate law expression.

The i<em>ntegrated rate law for a first-order reaction </em>is  

ln([A₀]/[A] ) = kt

Data:

[A]₀ = 750 mg

 [A] =    68 mg

t_ ½ =   15 da

Step 1. Calculate the value of the rate constant.

 t_½ = ln2/k     Multiply each side by k

kt_½ = ln2         Divide each side by t_½

      k = ln2/t_½

         = ln2/15

         = 0.0462 da⁻¹

Step 2. Calculate the time

ln(750/68) = 0.0462t

         ln11.0 = 0.0462t

            2.40 = 0.0462t     Divide each side by 0.0462

                   t = 52 da

Rank the following elements by effective nuclear charge, Zeff, for a valence electron. F LI Be B N
Stels [109]

Answer:

Rank in increasing order of effective nuclear charge:

  • Li < Be < B < N < F

Explanation:

This explains the meaning of effective nuclear charge, Zeff, how to determine it, and the calculations for a valence electron of each of the five given elements: F, Li, Be, B, and N.

<u>1) Effective nuclear charge definitions</u>

  • While the total positive charge of the atom nucleus (Z) is equal to the number of protons, the electrons farther away from the nucleus experience an effective nuclear charge (Zeff) less than the total nuclear charge, due to the fact that electrons in between the nucleus and the outer electrons partially cancel the atraction from the nucleus.

  • Such effect on on a valence electron is estimated as the atomic number less the number of electrons closer to the nucleus than the electron whose effective nuclear charge is being determined: Zeff = Z - S.

<u><em>2) Z eff for a F valence electron:</em></u>

  • F's atomic number: Z = 9
  • Total number of electrons: 9 (same numer of protons)
  • Period: 17 (search in the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons:  7 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 9 - 7 = 2
  • Zeff = Z - S = 9 - 2 = 7

<u><em>3) Z eff for a Li valence eletron:</em></u>

  • Li's atomic number: Z = 3
  • Total number of electrons: 3 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 1 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 1 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 3 - 1 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 3 - 2 = 1.

<em>4) Z eff for a Be valence eletron:</em>

  • Be's atomic number: Z = 4
  • Total number of electrons: 4 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 2 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 2 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 4 - 2 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 4 - 2 = 2

<u><em>5) Z eff for a B valence eletron:</em></u>

  • B's atomic number: Z = 5
  • Total number of electrons: 5 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 13 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 3 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 5 - 3 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 5 - 2 = 3

<u><em>6) Z eff for a N valence eletron:</em></u>

  • N's atomic number: Z = 7
  • Total number of electrons: 7 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 15 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 5 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 7 - 5 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 7 - 2 = 5

<u><em>7) Summary (order):</em></u>

  Atom          Zeff for a valence electron

  • F                   7
  • Li                   1
  • Be                 2
  • B                   3
  • N                   5

  • <u>Conclusion</u>: the order is Li < Be < B < N < F

What is the balanced symbol equation for magnesium chloride + sodium carbonate --&gt; magnesium carbonate + sodium chloride
Semenov [28]

Answer:

MgCl₂+ Na₂CO₃ ==> MgCO₃ + NaCl

From a quick observation

You see that the right hand side of the eqn is deficient of Sodium and Chlorine

Simply Add a Coefficient of 2 to NaCl to balance it with the left.

Your answer now becomes

MgCl₂ + Na₂CO₃ ==> MgCO₃ + 2NaCl.✅
