Answer : The distance between the two atoms is 1.2\times 10^{-10}m

Explanation :

The The formula used for moment of inertia for one atom is:

I=(\frac{m}{2})r^2

The formula used for moment of inertia for two atom is:

I=2(\frac{m}{2})r^2

where,

I = moment inertia = 1.9\times 10^{-46}kg.m^2

r = distance of atom from axis of rotation

m = mass of atom = 5.3\times 10^{-26}kg

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

I=2(\frac{m}{2})r^2

1.9\times 10^{-46}kg.m^2=2(\frac{5.3\times 10^{-26}kg}{2})r^2

r=6.0\times 10^{-11}m

Now we have to calculate the distance between the two atoms.

Formula used :

d=2r

where,

d = distance between the two atoms

d=2\times 6.0\times 10^{-11}m=1.2\times 10^{-10}m

Therefore, the distance between the two atoms is 1.2\times 10^{-10}m

According to collision theory, the rate of reaction depends on atoms colliding in the correct _________ with enough ________ for
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: orientation , energy , frequency

Explanation:

According to the collision theory , the number of collisions that take place per unit volume of the reaction mixture is called collision frequency. The effective collisions are ones which result into the formation of products.

Effective collisions depends on the following  two factors:-

1. Orientation factor: The colliding molecules must have proper orientation at the time of collision to result into formation of products.

2. Energy factor:  For collision to be effective,  the colliding molecules must have energy more than a particular value called as threshold energy.

Give the formula for an ionic compound formed from each pair of ions
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Please, find the complete question in the picture attached.

Answer:

1. Na₂O

2. AlF₃

3. MgO

4. Ca₃P₂

Explanation:

1. Na⁺ and O²⁻

An ionic compound will be formed when two ions of opposite charge attract each other.

The positive ion is called cation and the negative ion is called anion.

Thus, every ionic compound has a cation and an anion electrostatically bonded.

The ions must combine in a proportion that genders a neutral compound: so you must have as many cations as negative charge has one anion and as many anions as positive charge has one cation.

This is, if the cation has charge +x, there will be x anions, and if the anion has charge -y, there will be y cations.

Simbolically:

Cation:A^{+x}\\ \\ Anion:B^{-y}\\ \\ Compound:A_yB_x

As you see, the subscripts for each element in the chemical formula are obtained by the exchage of the charges of the ions.

Then, for Na⁺ and O²⁻, the subscript for Na will be 2 and the subscript for O will be 1; and the formula of the ionic compound formed by this pair ot ions is:

  • Na₂O

2. Al³⁺ and F⁻

  • The subscript of Al will be 1 (because the F ion has charge 1-, and the subscript of F will be 3 (because the Al ion has charge +3).

Thus the ionic compound formed by this pair of ions is:

  • AlF₃

3. Mg²⁺ and S²⁻

  • The charge 2+ from Mg atom wil become the subscript 2 of S atom, and the charge 2- will become the subscript 2 of Mg atom:

That results in the formula: Mg₂S₂

Except for some special compounds, the chemical formula is simplified, dividing by the least common denominator. In this case, that means that the two 2 subscripts are simplified to 1, and the final chemical formula for the ionic compound formed by this pair of ions is:

  • MgO

4. Ca²⁺ and P³⁻

  • The charge 2+ from Ca will become subscript 2 for P and the charge 3- whill become subscript 3 for Ca.

Hence, the ionic compound formed by these two ions is:

  • Ca₃P₂
