Statement that when two elements combine with each other to from more than one compound, the weights of one element that combine with a fixed weight of the other are in a ratio of small whole numbers.
Which element requires the least amount of
energy to remove the most loosely held electron
from a gaseous atom in the ground state?
<h3>Answer-</h3><h3>Na</h3>
Answer:
The particles of fluids are constantly moving in all directions at random. As the particles move, they keep bumping into each other and into anything else in their path. These collisions cause pressure, and the pressure is exerted equally in all directions.
ANSWER
EXPLANATION
Given that
The energy released by the system is 12.4J
Work done on the surrounding is 4.2J
Follow the steps below to find the change in energy
In the given data, energy is said to be released to the surroundings
Recall, that exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which heat is released to the surroundings. Hence, change in enthalpy is negative
Step 1; Write the formula for calculating change in energy

Since heat is released to the surrounding, then q = -12J
Recall, that work done by the system on the surroundings is always negative
Hence, w = -4.2J
Step 2; Substitute the given data into the formula in step 1

Therefore, the change i
I think B
