Explanation:

The charge on an ion denotes the amount of electrons lost or gained or even shared by an atom.

An atom will lose, gain or share an equal amount of electrons that will make it stable and achieve an octet and perfect configuration.

This is often synonymous with the component number of electrons in their outermost shell. The valence shell.

For metals on the periodic table, they are always willing to give up electrons due to their large electropositivity.

Metals will give up the number of electrons in their outermost shell to become stable.

Groups 1 and Group 2 will have charges +1 and +2 on them.

For non-metals , they will gain the exact number of electrons that will make them stable. We must note that half -filled and fully filled orbitals are equally stable.

Elements in groups 6 and 7 are electronegative and will have a charge of -2 and -1 respectively.

For those in groups 3, 4 and 5 they either gain, lose or share commensurate amount of electrons that will make them stable.

Group 8 elements are stable and have no charges.

Generally on the periodic table, metals are to the left and are always positively charged. Non - metals are to the right and are negatively charged.

A possible mechanism for the gas phase reaction of NO and H2 is as follows: Step 1 2NO N2O2 Step 2 N2O2 + H2 N2O + H2O Step 3 N2

mel-nik [20]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Steps involved for the given reaction will be as follows.

Step 1: $2NO \Leftrightarrow N_{2}O_{2}$ (fast)

Rate expression for step 1 is as follows.

Rate = k $[NO]^{2}$

Step 2: $N_{2}O_{2} + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2}O + H_{2}O$

This step 2 is a slow step. Hence, it is a rate determining step.

Step 3. $N_{2}O + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2} + H_{2}O$ (fast)

Here, $N_{2}O_{2}$ is intermediate in nature.

All the steps are bimolecular and it is a second order reaction. Also, there is no catalyst present in this reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement step 1 is the rate determining step, concerning this mechanism is not directly supported by the information provided.

coefficient: they balance the chemical equation you have to make sure the number is as small as it can. It is also used to convert different compounds to compounds or quantities to quantities.

The average score for games played in the NFL is 21.1 and the standard deviation is 8.9 points. 46 games are randomly selected.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

A) P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) = 0.2975

B) Q1 for the ¯x distribution = 21.9844

Explanation:

The Central Limit theorem allows us to say that

Sample mean = Population mean = 21.1 points

Mean of sampling distribution = σₓ = (σ/√n)

σ = population standard deviation = 8.9 points

n = sample size = 46

σₓ = (8.9/√46) = 1.3122334098 = 1.3122

A) P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) =

This is a normal distribution problem

To find this probability, we will use the normal probability tables

We first normalize/standardize 21.4317 and 22.7561.

The standardized score of any value is that value minus the mean divided by the standard deviation.

For 21.4317

z = (x - μ)/σ = (21.4317 - 21.1)/1.3122 = 0.25

For 22.7561

z = (x - μ)/σ = (22.7561 - 21.1)/1.3122 = 1.26

The required probability

P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) = P(0.25 < z < 1.26)

Checking the tables

P(21.4317 < ¯x < 22.7561) = P(0.25 < z < 1.26)

= P(z < 1.26) - P(z < 0.25)

= 0.89617 - 0.59871

= 0.29746 = 0.2975 to 4 d.p.

B) Q1 for the distribution is the first quartile. The first quartile is greater than 25% of the distribution.

P(x > Q1) = 0.25

Let the z-score that corresponds to Q1 be z'

P(x > Q1) = P(z > z') = 0.25

But P(z > z') = 1 - P(z ≤ z') = 0.25

P(z ≤ z') = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

From the normal distribution tables,

z' = 0.674

z' = (Q1 - μ)/σ

0.674 = (Q1 - 21.1)/1.3122

Q1 = 0.674×1.3122 + 21.1 = 21.9844228 = 21.9844 to 4 d.p.

Hope this Helps!!!
