Answer:

The order is determined as: Be > Mg > Ca > Sr (option B)

Explanation:

The electrons are attracted to the nucleus and it is necessary to provide energy to start them. The ionization energy I is then the energy needed to start an electron to a gaseous atom, isolated and in a fundamental state. The electrons of the last layer are always lost, which are the weakest attracted to the nucleus.

The elements beryllium, calcium, magnesium and strontium, if you place them in the periodic table, are in the same group. In the same group, the size of the atoms increases as they descend in the periodic table. In this way, electrons are found in layers increasingly distant from the nucleus, being less and less attracted to it. This facilitates its extraction from the atom. Finally, the ionization energy decreases as it descends in a group.  Following this criterion, the order is determined as: Be > Mg > Ca > Sr (option B)

When nonpolar solutes are placed in water, the hydrogen bonding network of water is disrupted, and there are fewer ways for wate
satela [25.4K]

Answer:  increase in entropy

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

When the non polar solutes are placed in water, the hydrogen bonding network of water is disrupted, and there are fewer ways for water to hydrogen-bond with itself. That means the water molecules are more randomly arranged and thus have more entropy and thus \Delta S is positive.

what is the change in the velocity of the biker below as he travels from point b to point c ? ..... What is his acceleration fro
Furkat [3]

The change in the velocity = 4 m/s

Acceleration = 4 m/s²

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

vo = initial velocity = 4 m/s

vf = final velocity = 8 m/s

t = 1 s

Required

The change in the velocity

Acceleration

Solution

the change in velocity =

\tt vf-vo=8-4=4~m/s

Acceleration = ratio of a change in velocity and the time

\tt a=\dfrac{\Delta v}{t}= \dfrac{vf-vo}{t}

Input the value :

\tt a=\dfrac{4~m/s}{1~s}=4~m/s^2

Answer:

Option B. Decreasing the temperature of the solvent

Explanation:

Solubility is mostly enhanced by increasing the temperature of the solvent or solution. This means that am increase in temperature will increase the solubility and decreasing the temperature will decrease the solubility.
