Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is PbS_2

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here metal lead is having an oxidation state of +4 called as Pb^{4+} cation and sulphur non metal has oxidation state of -2 called as S^{2-}. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral PbS_2

The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is PbS_2

A 1.5m wire carries a 7 A current when a potential difference of 68 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Working...

length of wire L = 1.5 m

current I = 7 A

potential difference V = 68 Volt

According to Ohm's Law

V = IR

R = V/I

R = 68/7

R = 9.7 Ω

Answer:

Day 7 DataUsage notes (since last reading)day & datetimekWh readingkWh usedhours elapsedavg. kW usedb.Usage Extremes: Data CollectionFor this experiment, you’ll measure electrical usage during a time period when you expect to havevery light electrical usage (for instance, while you’re asleep at night or during the day when no oneis at home). Likewise you’ll measure electrical usage during a time period when you expect to have heavier than average electrical usage. This time period might be in the evening, when lights and other appliances are on. Both of these time periods should be at least 4 hours long, to increase the accuracy of your results. Record your results in the tables below for each situation. For each time period, you’ll need to takean initial and a final reading.Type your response here:Low Usage - Initial Readingday & datetimekWh readingLow Usage - Final ReadingEnergy Usage Notesday & datetimekWh readingkWh usedhours elapsedavg. kW usedHigh Usage - Initial Readingday & datetimekWh reading4
