Answer:

Answer is A

Explanation:

Now we know that an atom wants to complete its outer shell while keeping electrons in pairs of two now in A there are four electrons which which can be ejected while in B will want to accept 3 electrons to complete its shell as ejecting five will take lot of energy similar case will be for C,D and E which would want to accept 2,1,0 electrons respectively

The town of Natrium, West Virginia, derives its name from the sodium produced in the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride (NaC

Alona [7]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

$Na^{+} + e^{-} \rightarrow Na(s)$

Hence, moles of Na = moles of electron used

Therefore, calculate the number of moles of sodium as follows.

No. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

= $\frac{4500 g}{23 g/mol}$ (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

= 195.65 mol

As, Q = $n \times F$ where F = Faraday's constant

= $195.65 mol \times 96500 C$

= $1.88 \times 10^{7}$ mol C

Relation between electrical energy and Q is as follows.

E = $Q \times V$

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula and then calculate the value of electricity as follows.

E = $Q \times V$

= $1.88 \times 10^{7} \times 5$

= $9.4 \times 10^{7} J$

As 1 J = $2.77 \times 10^{-7}$ kWh

Hence, $\frac{9.4 \times 10^{7}}{2.77 \times 10^{-7}}$ kWh

= 3.39 kWh

Thus, we can conclude that 3.39 kilowatt-hours of electricity is required in the given situation.

What is force? Why?

larisa [96]

In physics, a force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity.

Question<br> What is the molarity of a 400 mL solution containing 0.60 moles of NaCl?

Mumz [18]

Answer:

0.24 M

Explanation:

Molarity = Moles solute / Liters solution

Step 1: Identify variables

400 mL = Liters solution

0.60 moles = Moles solute

Step 2: Identify conversions

1 L = 1000 mL

Step 3: Convert mL to L

400mL(1 L/1000mL) = 0.4 L

Step 4: Find molarity

M = (0.4 L)(0.60 mol) = 0.24 M
