Answer:

According to this law, the force exerted between two point charges

i) is directly proportional to the product of their strengths.

ii) is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. and

iii) is inversely proportional to the absolute permittivity of the surrounding medium.

This is known as Coulomb's Law.

The electron dot diagram for a neutral atom of chlorine (atomic number 17) is shown below. Which of the following symbols repres

rosijanka [135]

The answer is A.

Chlorine is found in group7A of the periodic table. This means that when they are neutral, (electrons and protons are equal), they lack 1 electron to complete the octet or eight valence electrons to be stable. This will result in Chlorine having to gain an electron. Since it gained an electron, that means the electrons outnumber the protons by 1, which will result in a negative charge of -1.

According to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, a. any process during which the entropy of the universe increases will be product

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The correct option is;

a. Any process in which the entropy of the universe increases will be product-favored

Explanation:

According to the second law of thermodynamics, the change in entropy of a closed system with time is always positive. That is the entropy of the entire universe, considered as an isolated system, always increases with time, hence the entropy change in the universe will always be positive.

$\Delta S_{universe} = \Delta S_{system} + \Delta S_{surroundings} >0$
