NH3 is nitrogen trihydride (ammonia) and BF3 is boron trifluoride. What is the name for AlCl3 and why

Aluminum chloride - It does not have the prefix "tri-" since it is ionic. The other compounds listed in the question are covalent and require prefixes.

Caleb has a 860-kilogram car sitting in his back yard, gathering rust.

emmasim [6.3K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

A. 860 kg

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To answer the question we need to understand that;

Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object.
Weight, on the other hand, refers to the gravitational pull of an object to a given surface.
Mass is measured using a spring balance.

We also need to know that;

The mass of an object remains constant every where irrespective of the gravitational acceleration.

Therefore, an object on the surface of the earth would have the same mass as on the surface of the moon.
In this case; the mass of the car remains the same on the outer space as on the back yard.

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>
