Answer:

kinetic energy is directly proportional to the absolute temperature this is because when absolute temperature is increased it tends to cause more collision of the particles which hence increases kinetic energy of the particles .

since kinetic energy is the energy due to motion

As atoms get smaller,valance electrons are getting closer or farther away from the nucleous.The force of attraction is stronger

LiRa [457]

Explanation:

Electrons are closer to the nucleus are in filled orbitals and are called core electrons. More energy which in nucleus called nuclear strOng energy to remove electron thars why its also a way harder too..

Element 2 is:<br> A) Cobalt<br> B)Chlorine <br> C)Calcium<br> D)Carbon

saul85 [17]

Answer:

D: Carbon

Explanation:

Carbon is the sixth element with a total of 6 electrons in the periodic table. Hence the atomic number Z = 6. The ground state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2. An excited state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s1 2p3.

There are two binary compounds of mercury and oxygen. heating either of them results in the decomposition of the compound, with

grandymaker [24]

$\text{Hg} \text{O}$ and $\text{Hg}_{2} \text{O}$ .

Assuming complete decomposition of both samples,

$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure})$
$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss})$

First compound:

$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss}) = 0.6498 - 0.6018 = 0.048 \; g$
$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure}) = 0.6018 \; g$

$n = m/M$ ; $0.6498 \; g$ of the first compound would contain

$n(\text{O atoms}) = 0.048 \; g / 16 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$
$n(\text{Hg atoms}) = 0.6018 \; g / 200.58 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$

Oxygen and mercury atoms seemingly exist in the first compound at a $1:1$ ratio; thus the empirical formula for this compound would be $\text{Hg} \text{O}$ where the subscript "1" is omitted.
