the process of changing one form of energy into another
Answer: The correct option is The properties of a noble gas.
Explanation: There are 7 periods in the periodic table.
The last element of each period are Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn) and Ununoctium (Uuo).
- The electronic configuration for Helium is
. For He, The outermost electrons are 2.
- The electronic configuration for all the other elements is
( where, n = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively). For all the other gases, the outermost electrons are 8.
All these elements have stable electronic configuration and are not reactive in nature. Hence, they are considered as noble gases.
Therefore, the last element of each period always have the properties of a noble gas.
The alignments of the planets would be the correct answer.<span />
For this problem, we use the Beer Lambert's Law. Its usual equation is:
A = ∈LC
where
A is the absorbance
∈ is the molar absorptivity
L is the path length
C is the concentration of the sample solution
As you notice, we only have to find the absorbance. But since we are not given with the molar absorptivity, we will have to use the modified equation that relates % transmittance to absorbance:
A = 2 - log(%T)
A = 2 - log(27.3)
A = 0.5638
It says it will never change. So whatever it was before the change, it will be the same after the change. So, 200 should be correct.
