Unstable elements tend to combine with other elements to form

Chemistry

Answer: Compounds.

Explanation:

Compounds are formed when an unstable element combines with other elements, they do this by sharing electrons within their outmost shell. Compounds forms when there is a chemical bonding between two or more elements. Examples of compounds includes carbon dioxide (C, O) water (H and O), Sodium chloride (Na, Cl), methane, etc.

Answer:

Compounds

Explanation:

The reason why elements react is to attain stability. A compound is thus formed when two or more elements of different kind combine. For instance, An atom of sodium has only one electron in its outer shell. An atom of chlorine has seven outer electrons (almost a full shell).  If the lone sodium outer electron is transferred to the chlorine atom, both atoms would have full outer shells and so would achieve stability. The end product is sodium chloride which is a compound.

Question 4 (1 point)<br> If you have exactly one million atoms how many moles do you have?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

                       1.66 × 10⁻¹⁸  Moles

Explanation:

                     As we know one mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 10²³ particles (atoms, ions, molecules or formula units). This number is also called as Avogadro's Number.

The relation between Moles, Number of Atoms and Avogadro's Number is given as,

             Number of Moles  =  Number of Atoms ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Atoms/mol

Putting values,

              Number of Moles  =  1.0 × 10⁶ Atoms ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Atoms/mol

              Number of Moles  =  1.66 × 10⁻¹⁸  Moles

Two samples of a compound containing elements a and b are decomposed. the first sample produces 15 g of a and 35 g of
Alborosie

According to law of definite proportion, for a compound, elements always combine in fixed ratio by mass.

The formula of compound remains the same, let it be a_{x}b_{y} where, a and b are two different elements.

Since, the ratio of mass remains the same , calculate the ratio of masses of element a and b in both cases

\frac{a}{b}=\frac{15}{35}=\frac{10}{y}

rearranging,

y=\frac{10\times 35}{15}=23.3

Thus, mass of b produced will be 23.3 g.

Which has a greater volume, 10 grams of water or 10 grams of acetone?
WINSTONCH [101]

Density is defined as the ratio of mass to the volume.

Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}          (1)

Mass of water = 10 grams

Mass of acetone  = 10 grams

Density of water  = 1 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}

Density of acetone  = 0.7857 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}

Put the value of density of water and its mass in equation (1)

1 \frac{g}{cm^{3}} =  \frac{10 g}{volume}

Volume of water =  10 cm^{3}

Put the value of density of acetone and its mass in equation (1)

0.7857 \frac{g}{cm^{3}} =  \frac{10 g}{volume}

Volume of acetone = 12.72 cm^{3}

Thus, volume of acetone is more than volume of water because the density of acetone is lower.
