Hi,
The answer is +2, since there are 10 positive charges (protons) and 8 negative charges (electrons), so 10(+1) + 8(-1)= +10 -8= +2.

If my answer was not clear enough or you’d like further explanation please let me know.
Hope this helps!

The charge of 1 proton is +1 and the charge of one electron is -1
So you multiply by how many you have and add by the number of protons by the number of electron because you want to find the total charge and even if one electron has a negative charge you still need to include it
10(+1)+8(-1)
10-8
+2

What type of tree has thin, waxy needles that drop throughout the year and help to retain water?
grin007 [14]

Only coniferous trees have thin, waxy, needle-like leaves that drop throughout the year and help to retain water.

<h3>What are coniferous trees?</h3>

Coniferous trees are evergreen trees that produce cones.

In addition, they produce waxy and needle-like leaves that help them conserve water by limiting the evapotranspiration rate as a result of reduced surface area.

Examples of conifers include pine trees and spruces.

In a Lewis diagram for methane (CH4), which atom or atoms is inside, or central?
Ahat [919]

Answer:

B carbon

Explanation

Lewis structure or dot structure is an easy way to get the bonding details of atoms in a molecule. If we talk about methane molecule carbon is central atom with four electrons that are bonded to four hydrogen atoms and each bond is single covalent bond.

Please see attached figure,

What volume of so2 is produced at 325 k and 1.35 atm when 15.0 grams of hcl reacts with excess k2so3?
Helen [10]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2HCl + K₂SO₃ ---> 2KCl + H₂O + SO₂
stoichiometry of HCl to SO₂ is 2:1
number of moles of HCl reacted - 15.0 g / 36.5 g/mol = 0.411 mol 
according to molar ratio 
number of SO₂ moles formed - 0.411 mol /2 = 0.206 mol
since we know the number of moles we can find volume using ideal gas law equation 
PV = nRT
where
 P - pressure - 1.35 atm x 101 325 Pa/atm = 136 789 Pa 
V - volume 
n - number of moles - 0.206 mol 
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature - 325 K
substituting values in the equation 

136 789 Pa x V = 0.206 mol x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 325 K 
V = 4.07 L 
volume of SO₂ formed is 4.07 L

A balloon is filled to a volume of 1.50 L with 3.00 mol of gas at 25 C. with pressure and temperature held constant, what will b
bixtya [17]

Answer:

3.2L

Explanation:

PV=nRT

since pressure and temperature are held constant we have V=nR

R is a constant also,

Thus; \frac{v1}{n1}=\frac{v2}{n2}

v1=1.5L  , n1=3mol, n2=1.4mol

\frac{1.5}{3}=\frac{v2}{1.4}

v2=\frac{1.5}{3}*1.4

v2=3.2L

What type of medium can a compression shock wave be transmitted through?
Margarita [4]
It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to answer this question, but anyway, here is the answer. The type of medium that a compression wave can be transmitted through is liquids only. <span>When a wave moves faster than the local speed of sound in a fluid, it is a shock wave. Hope this answer helps. </span>
