Answer:
(BH3 follows the octet rule by dimerizing, as Hadi Kurniawan AR pointed out.) For H and He, an "octet" = 2 electrons. Boron does prefer to follow the octet rule, in that it likes to form borate compounds such as NaBH4. It also is happy to form compounds with elements with lone pairs.
Answer:
average for silk =141"
average for cotton =96"
average for nylon = 70"
if you desire a slower falling parachute to protect the body from damage,
silk is the best
if you desire a faster falling parachute to escape enemy bullets,
nylon is the best

Problem Solving
1. Kelvin and Xavier were doing an investigation on parachutes. One of them suggested that the type of material the parachute was made from had an effect on how long it took to reach the ground. Their results are given in
the table below.
(a) Calculate the average time in seconds for each material.
Time taken for parachute to reach the ground (seconds)
MATERIAL
1st TRY
2nd TRY

Given :
A compound has a molar mass of 129 g/mol .
Empirical formula of compound is C₂H₅N .
To Find :
The molecular formula of the compound.
Solution :
Empirical mass of compound :

Now, n-factor is :

Multiplying each atom in the formula by 3 , we get :
Molecular Formula, C₆H₁₅N₃
Answer: After 4710 seconds, 1/8 of the compound will be left
Explanation:
Using the formulae
Nt/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2
Where
N= amount of the compound present at time t
No= amount of compound present at time t=0
t= time taken for N molecules of the compound to remain = 4710 seconds
t1/2 = half-life of compound = 1570 seconds
Plugging in the values, we have
Nt/No = (1/2)^(4710s/1570s)
Nt/No = (1/2)^3
Nt/No= 1/8
Therefore after 4710 seconds, 1/8 molecules of the compound will be left
Answer: The energy transferred is known as kinetic energy, and it depends on the mass and speed achieved.
