Nadya [2.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

order = SrS > SrCl2 > RbCl > CsBr

Explanation:

Comparison of the melting points of compounds is basically dependent on the charge on their cation and anion, the more the charges on the cation and anion, the stronger and greater the force of attraction and as such the melting point will be relatively higher as well.

The ionic radii is also another factor to be considered, the more the distance between ions, the lesser the bond strength and the lesser the melting point.

from the options, in terms of ionic radii SrS > SrCl2 and RbCl > CsBr

also both SrS and SrCl2 have more charges on their ions compared to RbCl and CsBr and as such the arrangement of the highest melting point will be in the order SrS > SrCl2 > RbCl > CsBr.

What condition must be met for a battery to be rechargeable?
Neko [114]

Answer:

D. The electrochemical reaction of the battery must be reversible.

Explanation:

The batteries are based on the production of an electric flux given by a<u> redox reaction</u>. This reaction is <u>spontaneous</u> and is<u> thermodynamically favored</u>.

Thus, when the reactants to the reaction are finished, the flow of current stops and ends. Therefore, when current is administered from another source, the reaction <u>changes its direction</u> and reagents that were previously consumed begin to occur. Therefore the condition for it to be <u>rechargeable</u> is that the reaction can go <u>forward or backward</u>, that is, it is <u>reversible</u>.

What is one of the BEST practices officers should use when securing a crime scene?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The best practices officers should use when securing a crime scene is option D

D. They should secure a larger area than the actual crime scene

Explanation:

Officers should secure the scene by limiting access to the scene and movement within the scene

Three layers of secure perimeter should be used by officers to secure a crime scene, with the smallest inside perimeter being the actual crime scene

Next to the crime scene, is an inner perimeter which is the designated meeting point/command post

The outer perimeter, which is the third outer layer is to keep onlookers, passerby, and nonessential personnel at safety and out of the actual crime scene.

What is the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons when cesium is exposed to UV rays of frequency 1.0×1015Hz?
Anvisha [2.4K]
In order to emit electrons, the cesium will have to absorb photons. Each photon will knock out one electron by transferring its energy to the electron. Therefore, by the principle of energy conservation, the energy of the removed electron will be equal to the energy of the incident photon. That energy is calculated using Planck's equation:

E = hf

E = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ * 1 x 10¹⁵
E =  6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules

The electron will have 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules of kinetic energy

Which of the following lists describes characteristics of a base? (3 points)
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

slippery, high pH, and caustic (last option)

Explanation:

when we say base we should think soap. soap is slippery. Bases give OH- ion. when OH- is combined with H+ ion it will create water which raises the pH. Since base can dissolve fats, ex: using dish liquid to cut grease on pots and pans etc.. they are caustic. Biologically they can disrupt the cell memebrane making it caustic to cell tissue.
