Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that atom A contains 10 electrons so, its electronic distribution is 2, 8. Whereas atom B contains 18 electrons so, its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 8.

Since, both these atoms have completely filled octet so they do not need to react with any other element in order to attain stability.

Therefore, both these elements are unreactive in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that both A and B will be chemically unreactive.

What is the velocity of a wave traveling north with a frequency of 75 hertz and a wavelength of
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

v = 450 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency = 75 Hz

Wavelength = 6 m

Velocity = ?

Solution:

Velocity is the product of frequency and wavelength.

v = f × λ

v = 75 Hz ×  6 m

Hz = s⁻¹

v = 75  s⁻¹  ×  6 m

v = 450 m/s

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The statements which are true among these are: (a),(b) and (c) because,

(a) The simplest organic compounds which contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms are called hydrocarbons.

(b) The IUPAC naming of organic compounds have some rules for the naming of compounds, which consists of

  • Finding the longest chain present in the compound called parent chain.
  • A prefix for any substituent attach to the parent chain.

And lastly a suffix for the type of bond that molecule have.

(c) Isomers are the compound which same same molecular formula but different arrangement of molecules, due to this different arrangement they have different physical and chemical properties.
