3 0

Answer:

1.50 × 10²⁴ atoms C

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Molar mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

Avagadro's Number: 6.02 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Step 2: Use Dimensional Analysis

$30.0 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} C(\frac{1 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} C}{12.01 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} C} )(\frac{6.02(10)^{23} \hspace{3} atoms \hspace{3} C}{1 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} C} )$ = 1.50375 × 10²⁴ atoms C

Step 3: Simplify

We are given 3 sig figs.

1.50375 × 10²⁴ atoms C ≈ 1.50 × 10²⁴ atoms C

Answer:

in this situation I would a little bold

Explanation:

first I don't know what extinguisher I would use pretty much any that helps with fires. I'll back people up, take the hood and put it on the small fire that way it will light out more and if I open the hood and there still a little fire I would use the extinguisher and no one gets hurt :)

Imagine that you are playing a game of Clue in which Mrs. White is killed in the conservatory. You have a device in each room to

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Mr. Plum killed Mrs. White.

Explanation:

1) Wavelengths for the different light colors (visible light) and related character:

Color Wavelength related character

Violet 380–450 nm ← Professr Plum

Blue 450–485 nm ← Mrs. Peacock

Cyan 485–500 nm

Green 500–565 nm ← Mr. Green

Yellow 565–590 nm ← Colonel Mustard

Orange 590–625 nm

Red 625–740 nm ← Miss Scarlet

2) At the time of the murder, the spectrometers recorded:

a) In the dining room: 520 nm.

520 nm is in the range 500 - 565 nm, which is the range for green color, so Mr. Green was in the dining room and is no more a suspect.

b) In the lounge and study: lower frequencies.

Since frequency and wavelength are inversely related, the wavelengths in the longe and study have to be of yellow and red colors, which are the only two with longer wavelengths from the option given.

Then, Mustard and Scarlet are not criminal.

c) In the library: the second shortest wavelength of the five recorded.

The second shortest wavelength, as per the table, is that of blue color. So, Mrs. Peacock is not the killer.

The only left option is violet, so Mr. Plum is the only who could be at the conservatory and he is the killer.

How to know how many valence electrons are in an element

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Hope it helped

Explanation:

For neutral atoms, the number of valence electrons is equal to the atom's main group number. The main group number for an element can be found from its column on the periodic table. For example, carbon is in group 4 and has 4 valence electrons. Oxygen is in group 6 and has 6 valence electrons.
