The atomic number of Be is 4, and so it has 2 shells. There are valence electrons in the second, which is the outermost, shell of Be. To get the element with one more shell, there would be 3 shells on the new element, and 1 less valence electron, so the new element should have 1 valence electron. Sodium is the element with 3 shells, and one valence electron which fits perfectly into the description.

The percent composition of calcium is ?
DochEvi [55]

Answer: 40.1%

Explanation: The mass of calcium in this compound is equal to 40.1 grams because there's one atom of calcium present and calcium has an atomic mass of 40.1 . The molar mass of the compound is 100.1 grams. Using the handy equation above, we get: Mass percent = 40.1 g Ca⁄100.1 g CaCO3 × 100% = 40.1% Ca.

A roller coaster is accelerating at 10m/s² before it comes to an abrupt stop at the end of the ride. The mass of the roller coas
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

<h2>9000 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 900 × 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>9000 N</h3>

For each of the following pairs of complexes, identify which one you would predict to have the larger Δo value, and explain why.
mash [69]

Answer:

a) [Fe(H2O)6]3+

b) [Fe(CN)6]3−

c) [Ru(CN)6]3-

Explanation:

. [Mn(H2O)6]2+ or [Fe(H2O)6]3+

The both complexes are d5 complexes with the same ligand , water. Water is a weak ligand and note that Mn^2+ often have a crystal field stabilization energy of zero hence

[Fe(H2O)6]3+ will possess a greater ∆o value.

The splitting of d orbitals according to the crystal field theory depends on the;

i)geometry of the complex

ii) nature of the metal ion,

iii)charge on the metal ion,

iv) ligands that surround the metal ion.

When the geometry and the ligands are held constant, the order of crystal field splitting is as follows;

Pt4+ > Ir3+ > Rh3+ > Co3+ > Cr3+ > Fe3+ > Fe2+ > Co2+ > Ni2+ > Mn2+

[Fe(H2O)6]3+ or [Fe(CN)6]3−

[Fe(CN)6]3− will have a greater ∆o because the cyanide ion is a strong field ligand compared to water. A strong field ligand causes a greater splitting of the octahedral crystal field compared to a weak field ligand.

. [Fe(CN)6]3− or [Ru(CN)6]3-

[Ru(CN)6]3- will exhibit a greater crystal field splitting. Crystal field splitting increases with the second and third row transition elements when compared to the crystal field splitting of the first row transition elements. Note that, there is an increase of approximately 30%–50% in Δo on going from a first-row transition metal to a second-row metal and another 30%–50% increase on going from a second-row to a third-row metal when they have the same geometry and oxidation state.
