Answer:10,0000 years
Explanation:
If it takes 2000 years to weather 1cm of limestone
It will take 5*2000 years to weather 5cm of limestone. This gives us 10000 years.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
P4 is polyatomic molecule
The Answer Is B Because You Have To Divide The 9
Answer:
(a) The system does work on the surroundings.
(b) The surroundings do work on the system.
(c) The system does work on the surroundings.
(d) No work is done.
Explanation:
The work (W) done in a chemical reaction can be calculated using the following expression:
W = -R.T.Δn(g)
where,
R is the ideal gas constant
T is the absolute temperature
Δn(g) is the difference between the gaseous moles of products and the gaseous moles of reactants
R and T are always positive.
- If Δn(g) > 0, W < 0, which means that the system does work on the surroundings.
- If Δn(g) < 0, W > 0, which means that the surroundings do work on the system.
- If Δn(g) = 0, W = 0, which means that no work is done.
<em>(a) Hg(l) ⇒ Hg(g)</em>
Δn(g) = 1 - 0 = 1. W < 0. The system does work on the surroundings.
<em>(b) 3 O₂(g) ⇒ 2 O₃(g)
</em>
Δn(g) = 2 - 3 = -1. W > 0. The surroundings do work on the system.
<em>(c) CuSO₄.5H₂O(s) ⇒ CuSO₄(s) + 5H₅O(g)
</em>
Δn(g) = 5 - 0 = 5. W < 0. The system does work on the surroundings.
<em>(d) H₂(g) + F₂(g) ⇒ 2 HF(g)</em>
Δn(g) = 2 - 2 = 0. W = 0. No work is done.
Answer:
If an atom gains or loses an electron, it bacomes an ion. An atom that gains a negative electron, it becomes a negative ion. If it loses an electron it becomes a positive ion
Explanation:
A lithium atom has 3 protons and 3 electrons. It can lose one of its electrons, making it an ion. It now has more positive protons than electrons so it has an overall positive charge. Therefore it is a positive ion.
A fluorine atom will tend to gain, rather than lose, an electron. By gaining a negative electron, it has an overall negative charge. It has become a negative ion.
