Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The bond angle between the Si-O-Si is 145° .But this can also vary between 100° and 170°,  It is because of which the changes in properties is happening. Bond angles can affect the hybridization, lone pair repulsion and electronegativity.

Thus , Space shuttle tiles, sandstone, and the glass in quartz have different properties and are used according to their property.

A plot of binding energy per nucleon Eb A versus the mass number (A) shows that nuclei with a small mass number have a small bin
Illusion [34]

Answer:

6He =   4.90 MeV/Nucleon

8Li =     5.18  MeV / Nucleon

62Ni =   8.82 MeV / Nucleon

115 In =  8.54 MeV / Nucleon

Explanation:

Our strategy here is to remember that when the mass of a given nuclei is calculated from the sum of the mass of its  protons and neutrons, this mass is greater than  the actual  value . This is the mass defect.

Now this mass defect we can convert to energy  by utilizing Einstein´s equation, E = mc².This is  the binding energy.

For 6He with actual mass 6.0189 u ( He has Z = 2, that is 2 protons )

mass protons =   2 x 1.0078 u  =  2.0516 u

mass neutrons = 4 x 1.0087 u  =  4.0348 u

predicted mass = (2.0516 + 4.0348) u = 6.0504 u

mass defect = (6.0504 - 6.0189) u = 0.0315 u

Now we need to convert this mass expressed in atomic mass units to kilograms ( 1 u = 1.66054 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg )

0.0315 u x 1.66054 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg =5.231 x 10⁻²⁹ Kg

E =5.231x 10⁻²⁸ Kg x (3 x 10⁸ m/s )² = 4.707 x 10⁻¹²J

Finally we will convert this energy in Joules to eV

E = 4.707 x 10⁻¹²  J x 6.242 x 10¹⁸ eV/J = 2.94 x 10⁷ eV = 29.4 MeV

E per nucleon for 6He = 29.4 MeV / 6 =4.90 MeV / Nucleon

Now the calculations for the rest of the nuclei are performed in similar manner with the following results:

8Li = 5.18 MeV / Nucleon

62Ni = 8.82 MeV / Nucleon

115 In =  8.54 MeV / Nucleon

_____ are chemical substances that bind with a receptor and activate the receptor, much like a neurotransmitter does.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Ligands

Explanation:

Ligands are small molecules that transmit signals in between or within cells. Ligands exert their effects by binding to cellular proteins called receptors.

Consider the reaction of NO and CO to form N2 and CO2, according to the balanced equation: 2 NO (g) + 2 CO (g) → N2 (g) + 2 CO2
Gekata [30.6K]

The image is not given in the question, it is attached below:

<u>Answer:</u> The excess reactant is NO, the limiting reactant is CO and the products are shown in the image attached below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the given image:

Red spheres represent oxygen atoms, blue spheres represent nitrogen atoms and black spheres represent carbon atoms

The combination of 1 black and 2 red spheres will represent carbon dioxide (CO_2) compound

The combination of 2 blue spheres will represent nitrogen molecule (N_2)

The combination of 1 blue and 1 red sphere will represent nitrogen monoxide (NO) compound

The combination of 1 black and 1 red sphere will represent nitrogen monoxide (NO) compound

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is completely consumed in the reaction and limits the formation of the product.

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is left behind after the completion of the reaction.

We are given:

Given moles of NO = 6 moles

Given moles of CO = 4 moles

For the given chemical equation:

2NO(g)+2CO(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+2CO_2(g)

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of CO reacts with 2 moles of NO

So, 4 moles of CO will react with = \frac{2}{2}\times 4=4mol of NO

As the given amount of NO is more than the required amount. Thus, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, CO is considered a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of the product.

Hence, the excess reactant is NO, the limiting reactant is CO and the products are shown in the image attached below.

The last element in any period always has:
brilliants [131]

Answer: The correct option is The properties of a noble gas.

Explanation: There are 7 periods in the periodic table.

The last element of each period are Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn) and Ununoctium (Uuo).

  • The electronic configuration for Helium is 1s^2. For He, The outermost electrons are 2.
  • The electronic configuration for all the other elements is ns^2ns^6 ( where, n = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively). For all the other gases, the outermost electrons are 8.

All these elements have stable electronic configuration and are not reactive in nature. Hence, they are considered as noble gases.

Therefore, the last element of each period always have the properties of a noble gas.
