I think it’s 7? I’m
Not fully sure but when I had this question I put 7 & it was right.

Answer:

Sodium is in group 1 so it has 1 valence electron (one electron in its outer shell). Sodium will be looking to lose its one valence electron in order to become more stable. Chlorine is in group 17 so it has 7 valence electrons, and therefore only needs to gain one valence electron to attain noble gas electron configuration (become stable with 8 valence electrons, just like the noble gases in group 18 have 8). Because the chlorine atom is trying to gain one electron, and the sodium atom is trying to lose one, sodium will give up its one valence electron to chlorine and the two atoms will form an ionic bond. Because chlorine is looking to gain just one electron and sodium is looking to lose the same number, the ratio of chlorine atoms to sodium atoms will be 1:1, one chlorine atom per one sodium atom.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

Explanation:

Geologic erosion influences soil formation and distribution. Accelerated erosion results from the removal of natural vegetation by human activities such as farming, ranching, forestry, and construction. The production of agricultural and forest products can be affected by excessive erosion

29. What is E for a system which has the following two steps:

jasenka [17]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Recall that;

E = q + w

Where;

q = heat, w = work done

When heat is absorbed by the system q is positive

When heat is evolved by the system q is negative

When the system does work, w is negative

When work is done on the system w is positive

Step 1

ΔE1= 60 KJ + 40 KJ = 100KJ

Step 2

ΔE2= (-30 KJ) + (-70 KJ) = (-100) KJ

ΔE1 + ΔE2= 100KJ + (-100) KJ = 0KJ

What will be the pressure of 2.00 mol of an ideal gas at a temperature of 20.5 degrees Celsius and a volume of 62.3L?

erastova [34]

.774atm

First, look at what you have and look at the equations you can use to solve this problem. The best equation would be PV=nRT.

P being pressure, V being volume, n being moles, R being the gas constant, and T being temperature.

Before you start doing any of the math, make sure of two things. Since you're looking for pressure, you'll need a gas constant. When I did the problem, I used the gas constant of atm or atmospheres which is .0821.

Also! Remember to always convert celsius into kelvin, to do this, add 273 to the given celsius degree. After this is all set and done, your equation should look like this:

P = $\frac{2 x .0821 x 293.5}{62.3}$

The reason that the equation is divided by the volume is due to the fact that you need to isolate the variable or pressure.

Multiply everything on the top and divide by the bottom and you should receive the final answer of .774atm.

Hope this helps!

I’ll $ashapp anyone who knows the answers to these!!! Leave your $tag

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

below

Explanation:

1. The areas that have latitudes which are closer to the equator are generally hotter than those areas that are closer to the north and south poles.

2. Temperature is inversely related to latitude, as latitude increases from the equator (moving north or south) the temperature decreases.

Hope this helps! best of luck <3
