gogolik [260]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1

Explanation:

For non metals to attain a noble gas configuration, they gain the number of electrons needed to attain the noble gas configuration of the noble gas at the end of their periods. This means that these non metals would only take up the configuration of the last element on their periods which of course is always a noble gas.

The last element on the hydrogen period or more conservatively the only other element on the hydrogen period is helium, with an atomic number of 2. The atomic number is the number of protons in he nucleus of an atom. For an electrically neutral atom, the number of electrons equal the number of protons.

Hence we can deduce that helium has 2 electrons while hydrogen has one electron. Thus for it to attain the configuration of helium, it just needs to gain one more electron

Calculate the standard emf for the following reaction:
krek1111 [17]
In order to solve this, we need to know the standard cell potentials of the half reaction from the given overall reaction.
The half reactions with their standard cell potentials are:
<span>2ClO−3(aq) + 12H+(aq) + 10e- = Cl2(g) + 6H2O(l) 
</span><span>E = +1.47 
</span>
<span>Br(l) + 2e- = 2Br- 
</span><span>E = +1.065
</span>
We solve for the standard emf by subtracting the standard emf of the oxidation from the reducation, so:
1.47 - 1.065 = 0.405 V

Lilit [14]

Answer:

c. ll and lll only

Explanation:

Algae are plant-like protists capable of photosynthesis in their cells (chloroplast). Like every other living organism that grows and reproduce, algae also requires nutrients for these processes to effectively occur.

Algae makes use of inorganic nutrients including sulphates, phosphates, nitrates etc which are found in fertilizers, detergents etc. In the presence of these compounds, algae tends to grow excessively to form a BLOOM. Hence, according to the question, nitrates and phosphates are the two inorganic nutrients algae makes use of.

The pressure on 2.50 L of gas is changed from 4.5 atm to 2.2 atm. What is the new volume of gas?
swat32

Answer:

<h2>5.11 L</h2>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{2.5 \times 4.5}{2.2}  =  \frac{11.25}{2.2}  \\  = 5.1136666...

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.11 L</h3>

Hope this helps you
