That prediction is not correct because Xenon is extremely stable; column 18 of the periodic table contains the noble gasses, which are stable because their outer-most energy levels are completely filled. Having the octet (8) of valence electrons means that the element no longer needs to lose or gain electrons to gain stability.
The column 17 elements are unstable because they only have one valence electron short of the stable octet configuration of the noble gasses.
Answer:
20.96 m/s
Explanation:
Apply the kinematic equation:
Vf=Vi+at
Vi=8m/s
a=1.8m/s^2
t=7.2s
Putting this all in should give you your answer of 12.96m/s
The material that the snails are moving on affects their speed. On a smooth material, (petri dish) the snails moved the fastest. On a rough material (sandpaper) the snails moved the slowest. On dirt, a compromise between smooth and rough, the snails moved at a medium pace. The material and possibly friction affect this.
These are the characteristics that apply:
- In a solution taste sour: which is consequence of the H+ concentration.
- Corrode metals: the H+ ion reacts with the metal producing a salt and water
-Produce hydronium ion in solution: as per the Bronsted - Lowry definition an acid is a substance that donates a proton, H+. This proton will react with H2O to form H3O+ (hydronium), as per this scheme:
HA + H2O --> A(-) + H3O(+)
