An anion. 

This is because an anion is an ion that has a negative charge. Electrons are negatively charged particles while protons are positively charged. Generally, they become electrically neutral if they are the same. However, in this case, the electron which is "negative" is more than the positive which means the overall ion is negative and therefore an anion.

C) Define the following terms :-<br> Aufbau Principle
vaieri [72.5K]

Roughly, Aufbau Principle says that in an atom or an ion, electrons enter the shell with low energy first before entering the shell with high energy.

An atom has shells around its nucleus. Electrons enter these shells and orbit around the nucleus of an atom. To say about the properties of these shells, the shell nearest to the nucleus has the lowest energy. The farther the shell from the nucleus, the higher its energy. Aufbau Principle states that electrons enter the closest shell to the nucleus first since it has the lowest energy. When that shell has its maximum number of electrons is can hold, then the next electron will enter the second-closest shell to the nucleus, which has higher energy than the first shell.

What answer names a producer in an ecosystem
Temka [501]

Answer:

Fir tree

Explanation:

Producers, Consumers, and Decomposers in the Forest Community. Producers are any kind of green plant. Green plants make their food by taking sunlight and using the energy to make sugar. The plant uses this sugar, also called glucose to make many things, such as wood, leaves, roots, and bark. Rabbit, Fungus, and raccoon are all decomposers!

CONVERSION QUESTION
dlinn [17]

Answer:

615 μK/ms.

Explanation:

The conversion of 615mK/s to μK/ms can be obtained as follow:

1 mK/s = 10^-3 K/s

Therefore, 615mK/s = 615x10^-3 K/s

1K/s = 10^6 μK/s

Therefore,

615x10^-3 K/s = 615 x 10^-3 x 10^6 μK/s = 615x10^3 μK/s.

1s = 10^3ms

Therefore,

615x10^3 μK/s = 615x10^3 μK/ 10^3ms = 615 μK/ms.

Therefore,

615 mK/s = 615 μK/ms.

In the reaction Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) H2 (g) + MgCl2 (aq), how many grams of hydrogen gas will be produced from 125.0 milliliters o
Murrr4er [49]

Since the Mg is in excess, therefore HCl will be fully consumed in the reaction.

The first step is to find the amount of HCl in mol

Let  N (HCl) = amount of HCl in mol

 

N (HCl) = (6 mol HCL/L solution) *( 125 mL ) * (1 L/1000 mL) = 0.75 mol of HCl

 

Through stoichiometry

N (H2) = 0.75 mol HCl * (1 mol H2/ 2 mol of HCl)

N(H2) = 0.375 mol H2

 Since we are asked for the number of grams of H2 (mass), we multiply this with the molar mass of hydrogen

 

M (H2) = 0.375 mol H2 ( 2 g H2 / 1 mol H2)

M (H2) = 0.75 g H2
