Answer:

Z

Explanation:

Each shell can contain only a fixed number of electrons: The first shell can hold up to two electrons, the second shell can hold up to eight (2 + 6) electrons, the third shell can hold up to 18 (2 + 6 + 10) and so on.

Answer:

Phosphorus

Explanation:

Phosphorus has 15 total electrons. Its first shell can hold 2 electrons. Its second shell can hold 8 electrons. The remaining 5 electrons are in its third shell (the third shell can hold up to 18 electrons).

2 electrons (1st shell) + 8 electrons (2nd shell) + 5 electrons (3rd shell) = 15 total electrons (the number of electrons P has).

Teniendo en cuenta los siguientes fenómenos: ebullición del agua- movimiento de un cuerpo- disolución de sal en agua- combustión
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Las siguientes son reacciones químicas;

combustión de leña

oxidación del hierro

descomposición del agua en hidrógeno y oxígeno

Explanation:

Una reacción química da como resultado la formación de una (s) sustancia (s) nueva (s), mientras que un cambio físico no conduce a la formación de una sustancia nueva.

Las siguientes son reacciones químicas;

combustión de leña: la combustión de madera implica la oxidación del carbono según la reacción; C (s) + O2 (g) -------> CO2 (g)

oxidación del hierro: La oxidación del hierro conduce a la formación de óxidos de hierro. Como; 2Fe (s) + O2 (g) ----> 2FeO (s)

descomposición del agua en hidrógeno y oxígeno: esta es una reacción química en la que el agua se descompone de la siguiente manera; 2H2O (l) -----> 2H2 (g) + O2 (g)

Todos estos procesos enumerados anteriormente conducen a la formación de nuevas sustancias, por lo tanto, son reacciones químicas.

Calculate the Ph and the POH of an aqueous solution that is 0. 040 m in HCl(aq) and 0. 075 m in HBr(aq) at 25 °C.
LenaWriter [7]

pH is the measure of the hydrogen ion concentration while pOH is of hydroxide ion concentration in the solution. The pH is 0.939 and pOH is 13.061 pOH.

pH is the concentration of the hydrogen ion released or gained by the species in the solution that depicts the acidity and basicity of the solution.

pOH is the concentration of the hydroxide ion in the solution and is dependent on the pH as an increase in pH decreases the pOH and vice versa.

Both HCl and HBr are strong acids and gets ionized 100 % in the solution. If we let 1 L of solution for the acids then the concentration of the hydrogen ion will be 0.100 M.

Since both completely dissociate we would just add the molarities of each of the H+ ions together and then calculate the PH and POH from that :

HCL(0.040M)----> H+(0.040M) +CL-(0.040M)

HBr(0.075M)----> H+(0.075M) +Br-(0.075M)

so 0.040M (H+ from HCL) + 0.075M (H+ from HBr) = 0.115M H+ in total.

pH is calculated as:

pH = -log[H+]

Substituting values in the equation:

log(0.115M)= 0.939 pH

pOH is calculated as:

14 - pH = pOH

Substituting values in the equation above:

14 - 0.939= 13.061 pOH

Therefore, pH is 0.939 and pOH is 13.061.

FIRST ANSWER = BRAINLIEST
STALIN [3.7K]

A_{r} = 24.3

The average atomic mass of X is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.  

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its <em>relative importance</em> (i.e., its % abundance).  

Thus,  

0.790 × 24 u = 18.96 u

0.100 × 25 u =   2.50 u

0.110 × 26 u =    <u>2.86 u</u>  

       TOTAL =  24.3   u

∴ The relative atomic mass of X is 24.3.

A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. Which term best describes this compound’s behavior?
Cloud [144]

A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. The compound acts as a Lewis base.

<h3>What are the most common acid-base theories?</h3>
  • Arrhenius: acids release H⁺ and bases release OH⁻.
  • Bronsted-Lowry: acids donate H⁺ and bases accept H⁺.
  • Lewis: acids accept electrons and bases donate electrons.

A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. Which term best describes this compound’s behavior?

  • Lewis acid. YES.
  • Arrhenius base. NO, because OH⁻ is not involved.
  • Bronsted-Lowry acid. NO, because H⁺ is not involved.
  • Bronsted-Lowry base. NO, because H⁺ is not involved.

What is the highest point of the wave a transverse wave called
topjm [15]
<span>The answer to the question "what is the highest point of the transverse wave called" is a crest or peak. A transverse wave is a wave in which the medium of the wave vibrates at 90 degrees to the direction in which the wave is moving at. The lowest points are called the troughs. Examples of transverse waves are light and electromagnetic radiation.</span>
