Answer:
B
Explanation:
Soil structure affects water and air movement in a soil, nutrient availability for plants, root growth, and microorganism activity. ... This allows for greater air and water movement and better root growth.
Answer:
a) Mo the electron configuration: 42Mo: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d4
Mo3+ - is Paramagnetic
b) Au - [Xe] 4f14 5d10 6s1
For Au+ is not paramagnetic
c) Mn - [Ar] 3d5 4s2
Mn2+ is paramagnetic
d)Hf -[Xe] 4f¹⁴ 5d² 6s²
Hf2+ is not paramagnetic
Explanation:
An atom becomes positively charged when it looses an electron.
Diamagnetism in atom occurs whenever two electrons in an orbital paired equalises with a total spin of 0.
Paramagnetism in atom occurs whenever at least one orbital of an atom has a net spin of electron. That is a paramagnetic electron is just an unpaired electron in the atom.
Here is a twist even if an atom have ten diamagnetic electrons, the presence of at least one paramagnetic electron, makes it to be considered as a paramagnetic atom.
Simply put paramagnetic elements are one that have unpaired electrons, whereas diamagnetic elements do have paired electron.
Answer:
Explanation:
In Polystrene, the molecular formula for the repeat unit =
;
and the atomic weights of Carbon C = 12.01 g/mol
For Hydrogen, it is 1.01 g/mol
Hence, the repeat unit molecular weight is:
m = 8 (12.01 g/mol)+8(1.01 g/mol)
m = 96.08 g/mol + 8.08 g/mol
m = 104.16 g/mol
The degree of polymerization = no-average molecular weight/repeat unit molecular weight.
Mathematically;




Answer:
Option b. Decomposition
Followed by a reduction process using charcoal
Explanation:
Lead can be obtained from lead nitrate by thermal decomposition of lead nitrate as shown below:
2Pb(NO3)2 —> 2PbO + 4NO2 + O2
The PbO obtained is reduced by charcoal(C) to obtain the metallic Pb as shown below:
2PbO + C —> Pb + CO2
