Answer:

It is important because it separates the area that the process is happening from its surroundings, and it's easy to measure and make observations by doing that.

Explanation:

The system is the part of the universe that is separated for study. It has a frontier, which is the limitation of it, and the external area is the surroundings.

In the system the chemical and physical process is happening: reactions are taking place, gas is expanding, heat is being absorbed or lost, etc.

So, to understand the process that is happening, it's necessary to define the system under study because the measurements, analyze, and observation will be easily done.

A group of students working in a high school chemistry lab believe they have discovered a new element! How exciting? Upon furthe
spayn [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Information given about the element:

Number of protons = 74

Number of neutrons = 110

For the atomic number:

Neutral atoms such as this one would have their atomic number to be the same with their number of electrons and protons:

     atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

The atomic number would therefore be 74

For the mass number:

The mass of an atom is centrally concentrated within the tiny nucleus. The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom. Protons and neutrons are nuclear particles and are called nucleons:

     Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons = 74+110=184

Is this a new element?

From the peroidic table, tungsten(W) perfectly fits this description of the atom. It has an atomic number of 74 and a mass number of approximately 184. The element is not a new element.

Is it solid, liquid, or gas?

The element is a hard metallic solid. It is a classified as a transition metal on the periodic table. Transition metals have very unique metals and are mostly solids.

What geometric shape is the carbon dioxide molecule? The Lewis structure for CO2 contains two double bonds.
Greeley [361]

The answer would be Linear. in Carbon Dioxide, the two double bonds count as two pairs of electrons around the carbon atom, predicting linear geometry.
