Answer: Pink Quartz

Explanation:

Quartz. Can come on different colours like pink, white, gray, purple, black, yellow or green.

<u>Luster</u> means Appearance, Quartz unlike Silica, looks like glass.

<u>Conchoidal fracture: </u>It´s  how Quartz´s surface fractures on a smoothly curved way.

Hardness is mineral´s property of being scratched by others. Mohs scale of mineral hardness is used to classify a mineral as softer or not. In this case, quartz has a hardness of 7, that means it´s quite hard, since the scale starts in 1 and finishes in 10.

What amount if force need to be applied to a 20 kg bowling ball to give it an acceleration of 5m/s
balandron [24]

Answer:

100N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the bowling ball  = 20kg

Acceleration  = 5m/s²

Unknown:

Amount of force applied  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply newton's second law of motion.

    Force  = mass x acceleration

Now insert the parameters and solve;

   Force  = 20 x 5  = 100N

Explain why fluorine has a smaller atomic radius than both oxygen and chlorine
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

1) Has a smaller radius than oxygen because of the increased electromagnetic attraction of the nuclei

2) Has a smaller radius than chlorine because all the electrons of F have lower energy levels and have less repulsion of other electrons and hence are more attracted to the nuclei .

Explanation:

Further the electrons are from the nuclei , the bigger the atomic radius is.

(+) attraction of electrons to the nuclei, (-) repulsion of the electrons away from the nuclei.

1) From O to F:

(+) there is one more proton --> Stronger positive charge of the nuclei means that the electrons are attracted more , then they come closer to it and therefore the radius decreases

(-) There is one more electron --> Every electron is repulsed by others away from the nuclei --> the radius increases. But this effect is not so strong because the new electron is added at the same energy level.

Overall the (+) effect is stronger than the (-) effect --> Radius decreases from O to F

2) From F to Cl

(+) there is one more protons --> Same effect as before

(-) There is one more electron --> Every electron is repulsed by others away from the nuclei. But this time the new electrons have a higher energy level --> Meaning that they are less attracted and hence the radius increases.

And also the other inner layers of electrons (electrons of lower energy levels) repulse this new external layer of electrons more effectively than the case of O  --> Strong repulsion effect (called electron shielding effect) --> Radius increases

Overall the (-) effect is stronger than the (+) effect --> Radius increases from F to Cl  (or decreases from Cl to F)
