They are held in the atom by the positive charge of the nucleus. ... An atom that gains or loses an electron becomes an ion. If it gains a negative electron, it becomes a negative ion. If it loses an electron it becomes a positive ion

An object has a mass of 5 kg. What force is needed to accelerate it at 6 m/s2? (Formula: F=ma) 0.83 N 1.2 N 11 N 30 N
masya89 [10]
Answer: Option (D) 30N

Detailed Solution:
According to Newton's second law:

F = ma --- (A)

Given:
mass = 5kg
acceleration = 6 m/s^2
F = ?

Plug all the value in equation (A)
F = (5)(6)
Ans: F = 30N

Methanethiol, CH3SH, has a substantial dipole mement (1.52) even though carbon and sulfer have identical electronegativities. Ex
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The whole molecule is polar because Sulfur has lone pairs but Carbon doesn't. Lone pairs count more toward polarity, shifting dipole toward S.

Explanation:

Even though carbon and sulfur have identical values of electronegativities, the molecule, CH_3SH is polar because of the presence of the lone pairs on the sulfur atom.

The C-S bond is not polar because the both the atoms have electronegatiivty. <u>But S has lone pairs which can attract the bond pairs of the bond between the S and H and thus acquires slightly negative charge and H acquires slightly positive charge.</u>

In a study of the formation of NOx air pollution, a chamber heated to 2200°C was filled with air (0.790 atm N₂, 0.210 atm O₂). W
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

N₂ = 0.7515atm

O₂ = 0.1715atm

NO = 0.0770atm

Explanation:

For the reaction:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2NO(g)

Where Kp is defined as:

Kp = \frac{P_{NO}^2}{P_{N_2}P_{O_2}}}

Pressures in equilibrium are:

N₂ = 0.790atm - X

O₂ = 0.210atm - X

NO = 2X

Replacing in Kp:

0.0460 = [2X]² / [0.790atm - X] [0.210atm - X]

0.0460 = 4X² / 0.1659 - X + X²

0.0460X² - 0.0460X + 7.6314x10⁻³ = 4X²

-3.954X² - 0.0460X + 7.6314x10⁻³ = 0

Solving for X:

X = - 0.050 → False answer. There is no negative concentrations.

X = <em>0.0385 atm</em> → Right answer.

Replacing for pressures in equilibrium:

N₂ = 0.790atm - X = <em>0.7515atm</em>

O₂ = 0.210atm - X = <em>0.1715atm</em>

NO = 2X = <em>0.0770atm</em>

A sample of gas occupies 7.80 liters at 425=C2=B0C? What will be the volume= of the gas at 35=C2=B0C if the pressure does not ch
luda_lava [24]

To solve this we assume that the gas inside the balloon is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant pressure and number of moles of the gas the ratio T/V is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

T1 / V1 = T2 / V2

V2 = T2 x V1 / T1

V2 = 308.15 x 7.80 / 698.15

V2 =3.44 L
