Answer:

Here’s what I get.

Explanation:

The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
The number of protons determines the number of electrons.
The number of electrons determines the chemical properties of the element,

Thus, the atomic number determines the identity of the element.

The atomic mass does not affect the chemical properties, so different isotopes of an element behave alike.

8. The time period of artificial satellite in a circular orbit of radius R is T. The radius of the orbit in which time period is

Elena-2011 [213]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The time period of artificial satellite in a circular orbit of radius R is T. The relation between the time period and the radius is given by :

$T^2\propto R^3$

The radius of the orbit in which time period is 8T is R'. So, the relation is given by :

$(\dfrac{T}{T'})^2=(\dfrac{R}{R'})^3$

$(\dfrac{T}{8T})^2=(\dfrac{R}{R'})^3$

$\dfrac{1}{64}=(\dfrac{R}{R'})^3$

$R'=4\times R$

So, the radius of the orbit in which time period is 8T is 4R. Hence, this is the required solution.

Decide which element probably has a boiling point most and least similar to the boiling point of cesium.

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Take a look at the attachment below

Explanation:

Take a look at the periodic table. As you can see, Rubidium is the closest element to Cesium, and happens to have the closest boiling point to Cesium, with only a difference of about 30 degrees.

Respectively, you would think that fluorine should have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, considering it is the farthest away from the element out of the 4 given. This is not an actual rule, there are no fixed trends of boiling points in the periodic table, there are some but overall the trends vary. However in this case fluorine does have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, a difference of about 1,546.6 degrees.

<em>Hope that helps!</em>

1) Determine a fórmula da base hidróxido de bário: * 1 ponto a) b) c) d) 2) As bases são substâncias iônicas, ou seja, quando sã

Reika [66]

Answer:

1) Ba(OH)₂

2) The correct option is a) they conduct electricity.

Explanation:

To deduce the formula of Barium hydroxide, we have to go to the periodic table and look for the Barium (Ba), which is in group 2 and has an ionic charge of 2+. Hydroxides are not an element that is present in the periodic table is the combination of Oxygen and Hydrogen (OH), and its ionic charge is 1-.

To name this substance, we write the elements that form it, which are Ba OH, then we see the ionic charges that they have, Ba2+ OH 1- and we change these charges giving the 2+ to the OH and the 1- to the Ba. It would look Ba OH₂; we do not write the 1, and as there is a 2, the OH, has to be between brackets so that the final formula is Ba(OH)₂. What we did is balancing the charges of the elements. In other words, we need 2 OH for every Ba. Hydroxides give an electron to balance the Ba ionic charge.

Barium Hydroxide is an ionic compound because ionic compounds are formed by a metal (Ba) and a nonmetal element (OH), ionic compounds are charged, so when they are in an aqueous solution they conduct electricity because their ions move freely in the solution.
