Answer:

b. primitive cubic < body-centered cubic < face-centered cubic  

Explanation:

The coordination number is defined as <em>the number of atoms (or ions) surrounding an atom (or ion) in a crystal lattice</em>. Its value gives us a measure of how tightly the spheres are packed together. The larger the coordination number, the closer the spheres are to each other.

  • In the <u>primitive cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 6 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 6</u>.
  • In the <u>body-centered cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 8 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 12</u>.
  • In the <u>face-centered cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 12 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 12</u>.

Therefore, the increasing order in density is the primitive cubic first, then the body-centered cubic, and finally the face-centered cubic.

Is the following nuclear equation balanced?<br><br> No<br> Yes
fredd [130]

Answer:

Yes.

The nuclear equation {226/88 Ra → 222/26 Rn + 4/2 He} is balanced. As we know that an alpha particle is identical to a helium atom. This implies that if an alpha particle is eliminated from an atom's nucleus, an atomic number of 2 and a mass number of 4 is lost.

Therefore, the equation will be reduced to:

226 - 4 = 222

88 - 2 = 86

Hence, the equation is balanced.

Answer:

b, H2O(s) r H2O(g)

Explanation:

entropy is heat, so increase in heat would mean water gets evaporated or melted, or both in this case. so the only choice above that showed increase in heat is from solid(ice) to gas(water vaper) due to increase in heat in the reaction.
