Unstable elements tend to combine with other elements to form

Chemistry
2 answers:
prisoha [69]3 years ago

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.

Nitrogen (n) atomic number = _____ atomic mass = _____ number of protons = _____ number of neutrons = _____ number of electrons
inessss [21]
Nitrogen, Periodic abbreviation= N
Atomic Number: 7, as it has 7 protons
Atomic Mass: 14.007, so around 7 protons and 7 neutrons depending on isotope type
# Protons: 7
# Neutrons: 7
# Electrons: 7, usually, but not always, equal to # of Protons
Valence Electrons: 5, as with 7 electrons total, 2 would fill the first valence shell, leaving 5 in the valence, or outermost, shell.

A 126.1-gram block of granite at 92.6°C is dropped into a tub of water at 24.7°C in an isolated system. The final temperature of
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The granite block transferred <u>4080 J</u> of energy, and the mass of the water is <u>35.8 g</u>.

1. <em>Energy from granite block </em>

The formula for the heat (<em>q</em>) transferred is

<em>q = mC</em>Δ<em>T</em>

<em>m</em> = 126.1 g; <em>C</em> = 0.795 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹; Δ<em>T</em> = <em>T</em>_f – <em>T</em>_i = 51.9 °C - 92.6 °C = -40.7 °C

∴ <em>q</em> = 126.1 g × 0.795 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × (-40.7 °C) = -4080 J

The granite block transferred 4080 J.

2. <em>Mass of water </em>

<em>q = mC</em>Δ<em>T </em>

<em>m = q</em>/(<em>C</em>Δ<em>T</em>)

<em>q </em>= 4080 J; <em>C</em> = 4.186 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹; Δ<em>T</em> = <em>T</em>_f – <em>T</em>_i = 51.9 °C – 24.7 °C = 27.2 °C

∴ <em>m</em> = 4080 J/(4.186 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × 27.2 °C) = 35.8 g

The mass of the water is 35.8 g.

Test tubes are used mostly for _____. A. storing experimental samples B. making precise measurements of liquids C. containing ex
Annette [7]

Answer: A) Storing experimental samples

Explanation:

It is a common piece of laboratory glassware that can be made of glass or plastic and is opened at the top and closed at the bottom.

It cannot be used for measurements because there is no graduation indicating the volume.

Althought it can contain extra chemicals left over from an experiment, it is not the main proposal of the glassware that is to store samples.

It cannot be used in a microscope and the object for that is a microscope slide.
