Differentiate between a cation and an anion.​

Physics
1 answer:
morpeh [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The positively charged ions are called cations and negatively charged ions are called anions.

Explanation:

  1. When an atom releases an electron to form the nearest rare gas configuration, it forms a positive ion.
  2. Similarly, an atom receives an electron to form the nearest electronic configuration, it forms negative ions.
  3. The positive ions have an affinity towards the negative electrode and moves towards it. So it is called cations.
  4. The negative charge ions have an affinity towards the positive electrode and moves towards it. So, it is called anions.
  5. Hence, the positively charged ions are called cations and negatively charged ions are called anions.

barxatty [35]
The amplitude did not change when the recurrence was expanded on the grounds that the long headstrong time of the heart forestalls adjustment. It is the most extreme removal or separation moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its balance position. It is equivalent to the one-a large portion of the length of the vibration way.

On a distant planet, a rock falls in 48.4 s from the top of a 1.10e+02 m cliff to the planet surface below. What is the accelera
pav-90 [236]

this can be solve using the formala of free fall

t = sqrt( 2y/ g)

where t is the time of fall

y is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity

48.4 s = sqrt (2 (1.10e+02 m)/ g)

G = 0.0930 m/s2

The velocity at impact

V = sqrt(2gy)

= sqrt( 2 ( 0.0930 m/s2)( 1.10e+02 m)

V = 4.523 m/s

Mostly GPE and a little KE since the ball is high up (GPE) and it's also moving (KE) but not as much as it had when you first threw it
