It could also be the fact that the element chlorine Cl 17 its only missing 1 electron to be stable like Argon 18 in where its valence shell is full and Sodium Na 3 have 1 extra electron to be stable like Helium 2. Therefore chlorine really wants an extra electron and sodium wants to lose it. This makes the ion NaCl which is present in earth

Its probably becuase of the amount of minerals found in the ocean floor.Salt just so happens to be a major one.not only that,but the amount of salt that the human body emits while while outside,normally by bodies of water,it could also be that.

Prove that PV = nRT.

qaws [65]

Find your answer in the explanation below.

Explanation:

PV = nRT is called the ideal gas equation and its a combination of 3 laws; Charles' law, Boyle's law and Avogadro's law.

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e V = 1/P

From, Charles' law, we have that volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas at constant pressure. i.e V = T

Avogadro's law finally states that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules. i.e V = n

Combining the 3 Laws together i.e equating volume in all 3 laws, we have

V = nT/P,

V = constant nT/P

(constant = general gas constant = R)

V = RnT/P

by bringing P to the LHS, we have,

PV = nRT.

Choose the answer that best explains why α–pyrone reacts with br2 to yield a substitution product (like benzene does), rather th

meriva

As can be seen in the attached image, α-pyrone has a highly electrophilic carbon atom, since it is attached to two oxygen atoms that are electronegative and subtract electrical charge from the carbon, leaving it with a positive partial charge. By virtue of the above, the bromine atoms, which have an important electron density that makes them good nucleophiles, will be attracted to the aforementioned carbon due to their positive charge, thus favoring the substitution product to a greater extent than that of addition.
