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.

Which statement best describes the collisions of gas particles according to the kinetic-molecular theory?
erastovalidia [21]
<span>The statement best describes the collisions of gas particles according to the kinetic-molecular theory is that the collisions of gas particles in an ideal gas are completely elastic. An expansion in the quantity of gas particles in the holder expands the recurrence of impacts with the dividers and in this manner the weight of the gas. The last propose of the motor sub-atomic hypothesis expresses that the normal active vitality of a gas molecule depends just on the temperature of the gas.</span>

If the edge length of the unit cell is 705.2 pm, what is the density of KI in g/cm3.
Kipish [7]

The density  is 3.144 g / cm^3.

<u>Explanation</u>:

If effective number of atom in NaCl type structure, z = 4

a = 705.2 pm ⇒ In centimeter = 705.2 \times 10^-10

Na = 6.023 \times 10^23

density = (molecular weight) (z) / (Na) (a^3)

where molecular weight of KI is 166 g,

           Z represents the atomic number

density = (molecular weight) (z) / (Na) (a^3)              

             = (166 \times 4) / (6.023 \times 10^23) \times (705.2 \times 10^-10)

density = 3.144 g / cm^3.

Elle wanted to test how temperature affects the rate of evaporation. She had three setups:
Pie

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

Here the factor that Elle is controlling is the temperature. So temperature here is the independent variable and the dependent variable is the rate of evaporation of water.  Independent variable is controlled during the experiment setup and the outcome of the dependent variable depends on the independent variable.
