Answer:

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a broad explanation that is widely accepted because it is supported by a great deal of evidence. Because it is so well supported, a scientific theory has a very good chance of being a correct explanation for events in nature. Because it is a broad explanation, it can explain many observations and pieces of evidence. In other words, it can help connect and make sense of many phenomena in the natural world.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The third and fourth elements in the first transition series are vanadium and chromium. They contain 23 and 24 electrons respectively.

In universe L, the electron configuration of vanadium is;

[X] 3d3 4s2

In universe L, the electron configuration of chromium is;

[X] 3d4 4s2

The electron configuration of chromium has to change since there are four instead of five d orbitals in universe L.

Explain each of the following observation the melting point of lithium is higher than that of potassium

lakkis [162]

Due to its small size, lithium has a high melting and boiling point.

<h3>Why does lithium have high melting and boiling point explain?</h3>

With only one valence electron to contribute to the metallic lattice, lithium and potassium are both alkali metals. We could infer that the metallic bonding is less strong between the electron cloud and the larger potassium cation than it is in the lithium structure. This means that because lithium creates a smaller cation, the electrostatic force in this situation should be greater also Lithium has high ionization energy and a high melting and boiling point because of its small size. As a result, its crystal structure has an extremely high binding energy.

<h3>Alkali metals</h3>

The chemical elements lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), cesium (Cs), and francium make up the alkali metals (Fr). They make up group 1, which is located in the s-block of the periodic table, along with hydrogen.

What is true about two neutral atoms of the element gold

choli [55]

I'm pretty sure it's they have the same properties, because they don't have different masses, they don't both have missing nuclei, and they don't hav a different # of protons. Can't recall much else about the two, but I distinctly remember that

Which identifies an oxidation-reduction reaction?

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄ → Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized

Question 6

kompoz [17]

Considering the combined law equation, the new temperature is -244.56 °C or 28.44 K.

<h3>Boyle's law</h3>

Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas in a closed container is inversely proportional to the volume of the container, when the temperature is constant: if the pressure increases, the volume decreases while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

Mathematically, this law states that the multiplication of pressure by volume is constant:

P×V=k

<h3>Charles's law</h3>

Charles's law states that the volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas: if the temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases while if the temperature of the gas decreases, the volume decreases.

Mathematically, Charles' law states that the ratio of volume to temperature is constant:

$\frac{V}{T} =k$

<h3>Gay-Lussac's law </h3>

Gay-Lussac's law states that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature: increasing the temperature will increase the pressure, while decreasing the temperature will decrease the pressure.

Mathematically, Gay-Lussac's law states that the ratio of pressure to temperature is constant:

$\frac{P}{T} =k$
