Answer:

Belongs to the group 2A

Explanation:

As you can see, the first two ionization energies are close and low, meaning that this element ionizates easily.

Not only loses easily the first electron, but the second too

To remove the third electron you requiered a huge amount of energy

Now,<u> elements easily ionizable are the ones from group IA, group 2A and transition metals.</u>

The last ones have mixed characteristics in matter of how many electrons you can remove from them, so they are not a family.

Now the question: group I or group II ?

The elements of group I have <u>low  ionization energies  for the first electron but high energies for the second ones</u>.

Being all that said, the unknown element belongs to the Group 2A

<span>The jump from 1966 to 16347 is the largest one or simply we can say it is hard to lose the 3rd electron.Whereas, it is relatively easy to lose the first two electrons.

So there will be only 2 electrons in the outer most shell.

According to the information mentioned above we can conclude the </span><span>unknown element likely belongs to the second group.

if a stone is projected at an angle of 50 degrees to the horizontal with an initial velocity of 50m/s, what is the vertical comp
Vilka [71]

Answer:

38.3 m/s

Explanation:

To find vertical component of initial velocity, you'd have to use sine ratio:

\displaystyle{\sin \theta = \dfrac{u_y}{u}}

\displaystyle{u_y} is vertical component of initial velocity and \displaystyle{u} is initial velocity given which is 50 m/s.

A stone is projected at an angle of 50 degrees so \displaystyle{\theta} = 50°. Substitute in the formula:

\displaystyle{\sin 50^{\circ} = \dfrac{u_y}{50}}\\\\\displaystyle{50 \sin 50^{\circ} = u_y}\\\\\displaystyle{u_y = 38.3 \ \, \sf{m/s}}

Therefore, the vertical component of initial velocity is approximately 38.3 m/s

Why are we buried in the ground when we die?
trasher [3.6K]
What kind of the question is that. We aren't really buried. We either go to Heaven or the other place. Some people say it's over when your buried in the ground but believers don't really think that.
