Answer:
T2 = 550K
Explanation:
From Charles law;
V1/T1 = V2/T2
Where;
V1 is initial volume
V2 is final volume
T1 is initial temperature
T2 is final temperature
We are given;
V1 = 20 mL
V2 = 55 mL
T1 = 200 K
Thus from V1/T1 = V2/T2, making T2 the subject;
T2 = (V2 × T1)/V1
T2 = (55 × 200)/20
T2 = 550K
Answer: Metals form cations.
The alkali metals (the IA elements) lose a single electron to form a cation with a 1+ charge.
The alkaline earth metals (IIA elements) lose two electrons to form a 2+ cation.
Aluminum, a member of the IIIA family, loses three electrons to form a 3+ cation.
Therefore, metals in the s and p block of the periodic table have 1, 2 or 3 electrons in their outermost orbit (or valence shell). Now to gain a stable octet metals lose either 1, 2 or 3 electrons from the valence shell thus forming cation with +1, +2 or +3 charge.
I would think that the answer would be three
Because of the prefix tri- in "tigonal"
Tri- means 3, as in tricycle or triangle
So, it would make sense for the answer to be 3
