The most suitable answer is C becuase they would gain two elctrons to atain that stable OCTET thus becoming a anion with a charge of -2 and by virtue oxidation states of -2. There is however an exception with oxygen in two cases. But I still remain that the best answer would be C
Answer:
76
Explanation:
Alpha decay is one of the most basic forms of radioactive decay. It has an atomic mass of 4 and a proton number of two.
Undergoing an alpha decay will decrease the atomic mass by four and the atomic number by two.
In this particular question, we are particular about the atomic number. The atom has an atomic number of 78. So taking 2 off this gives 76
The equation Eºcell = 0.0592/n logK must be used to find n and also Eºcell
2 Al(s) + 3 Mg2+(aq) → 2 Al3+(aq) + 3 Mg(s) Al3+ +3e- --> Al Eº = -1.66 V Mg2+ +2e- -->Mg Eº = -2.37V
To balance the equation, 6 moles of electrons must be transferred (2 Al and 3 Mg). This will be the value of n in the equation.
To find Eºcell, you need the reduction potentials which should be given in a table, and given above. Eºcell = -1.66 - (-2.37) = 0.71 V log K = Eºcell x n/0.0592 = 0.71 x 6/0.0592 log K = 71.95 K = 10^71.95 K = 1.1x10^72
A single fixed pulley is used to lift load by changing the direction of the lifting force. Even though a single fixed pulley has no mechanical gain in that, the effort applied is greater than the load, it is preferred in use since you do not have to pull or push the pulley up and down.
I think the answer would be dependent variable. An unknown or changeable quantity is called a dependent variable. It <span>is what you measure in the experiment and what is affected during the experiment. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
