7 0

Explanation:

(Ques- A) Why does the first method for determining volume work only for a regular-shaped object?

(Ans- A) Because the method requires precise dimensions of objects for result, which is not possible for irregular shaped objects.

(Ques - B) Will the second method for determining volume work for any object or just an odd-shaped one? Why?

(Ans-B) It will work for both regular and irregular shaped objects since both displace equal volumes of water.

(Ques - C) Is one method of measurement more accurate than the other? Why or why not?

(Ans-C) Both are pretty accurate, with some experimental errors which may creep in accidentally.

(Ques- D) Would the displacement method of measurement work for a cube of sugar? What about a cork? Why?

(Ans - D) No, the method would not work because sugar being soluble, will dissolve in water.

No, the method would not work because sugar being soluble, will dissolve in water. Cork is less dense than water so floats on it, with only part of it submerged in water, resulting in displacement of less volume of water than actual volume of Cork.

(Ques-E) What did you find out from this investigation? Be thoughtful in your answer.

(Ans- E) I learnt about determining volume of different objects from this investigation. (Sorry, I know its not a very thoughtful answer)

in which of the following is the symbol for the ion and the number of electrons it contains given correctly? *

gregori [183]

Answer:Number of electrons that are present in an atom is determined by the electronic configuration of that atom.

If an ion is carrying a positive charge, it means that the atom has lost electrons and if an ion is carrying a negative charge, it means that the atom has gained electrons.

For the given options:

Option A: The atomic number of hydrogen atom is 1 and the electronic configuration for ion will be:

Thus, this atom does not have any electrons.

Option B: The atomic number of bromine atom is 35 and the electronic configuration for ion will be:

Thus, this atom has 36 electrons.

Option C: The atomic number of aluminium atom is 13 and the electronic configuration for ion will be:

Give the quantum number set for one electron in the 3p sub level of a sulfur (S)

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:- Atomic number for sulfur is 16 and it's electron configuration is $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^4$ . Here, there are total for electrons in 3p and the set of quantum numbers for these 4 electrons would be as..

For the first electron of 3p-

n = 3, l = 1, ml = -1 and ms = +(1/2)

for the second electron of 3p-

n = 3, l = 1, ml = 0 and ms = +(1/2)

for the third electron of 3p-

n = 3, l = 1, ml = +1 and ms = +(1/2)

and for the fourth electron of 3p-

n = 3, l = 1, ml = -1 and ms = -(1/2)

Distinguish between deliquescence and efflorescence.

netineya [11]

Explanation:

Deliquescent substances are solids that absorb moisture from the atmosphere until they dissolve in the absorbed water and form solutions. Efflorescent: Efflorescent substances are solids that can undergo spontaneous loss of water from hydrated salts.
