The solution would not be able to conduct electricity because there would not be free flowing ions in the solution for electricity to travel through.

Answer: The conductivity of the solution is very low or near zero

Explanation:

Covalent compounds do not have free electrons and do not dissociate into ions. Ions are the charge carriers in solution and are responsible for the conductivity of electrolyte solutions. Non-electrolytes do not dissociate into ions hence they do not conduct electricity in solution. The conductivity is very low due to the absence of ions making the solution unable to conduct electricity.

When nitrogen gas (N2) reacts with hydrogen gas(H) ammonia gas (NH3) is formed. How many grams of hydrogen gas are required to r
kupik [55]

Mass of Hydrogen gas required to react : 0.936 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction on Nitrogen gas and Hydrogen gas to produce Ammonia gas

N₂ (g) + 3 H₂ (g) ⇒ 2 NH₃ (g)

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure). At STP, Vm is 22.4 liters / mol

so mol Nitrogen for 3.5 L at STP :

\tt mol=\dfrac{3.5~L}{22.4~L}=0.156

From the equation, mol ratio of N₂ : H₂ = 1 : 3, so mol H₂ :

\tt \dfrac{3}{1}\times 0.156=0.468

then mass of Hydrogen(MW= 2 g/mol) :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=0.468\times 2\\\\mass=0.936~g

How many electrons are transferred during the formation of one molecule of al2o3?
lukranit [14]
Answer:
            Six electrons are transferred in the formation of Al₂O₃.

Explanation:
                   Aluminium metal and Oxygen react to form Al₂O₃ as,

                                2 Al  +  3/2 O₂    →    Al₂O₃

Oxidation number of Al on left hand side is zero, while than on right hand side in Al₂O₃ is +3. Means it has lost 3 electrons per one atom and six electrons per two atoms. Also, the oxidation number of O at left hand side in O₂ is zero, while that in Al₂O₃ it is -2 per atom and -6 per 3 atoms. 

So, two Al atoms have lost 6 electrons and 3 O atoms have gained six electrons.

A geologist finds ripples preserved in ancient sedimentary rock that look just like ripples made by water in mud. He concludes t
MArishka [77]

Answer:

D.  because water and mud behaved in a similar way in the past as they do today

Explanation:

One of the fundamental theories in the field of earth science is the theory of uniformitarianism.

Uniformitarianism was proposed by James Hutton in the 18th century in Scotland. The theory states that "geologic processes occurring today have occurred in times past and that the present is the key to past".

The simple meaning of the theory is that, the processes on earth today such as weathering, erosion, e.t.c have also occurred in times past. Those processes still occur today and an understanding of such events today will help us have a better insight into the past.

Therefore, ripple marks just as they form today from action of mud and water would be formed in a similar way in the past.
