Answer:

Detail is given below

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm

In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N

In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.

Please solve for Cu,N,and O an dif you can show how cause ik confused
belka [17]

Cu⇒ 1 atom

N⇒2 atoms

O⇒6 atoms

Total 9 atoms

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.  

A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.  

<em>(empirical formula) n = molecular formula  </em>

Chemical formula : Cu(NO₃)₂

Number of Cu : 1

Number of N : 2

Number of O = 2 x 3 = 6

Total atoms in Cu(NO₃)₂ : 1 + 2 + 6 = 9

If your boyfriend is ignoring you, you should just ask him about it because if you guys don’t communicate then discussing things about your relationship will be difficult

I hope this helps

How many moles of butane do we have if we have 5.50 x 1024 molecules<br> of butane (CH) ?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

9.14moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of atoms of butane  = 5.5 x 10²⁴atoms

Unknown:

Number of moles  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we must understand that a mole of any substance contains the Avogadro's number of particles.

             6.02 x 10²³ atoms makes up 1 mole of an atom

             5.5 x 10²⁴ atoms will contain = \frac{5.5 x 10^{24} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }  = 9.14moles
