When compounds form, which of the following statements is true about the elements that form them?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Greeley [361]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C. Their properties change completely.

Explanation:

The electron configurations of the elements show a periodic variation with increasing atomic number. Consequently, there are also periodic variations in physical and chemical behavior.  

When atoms interact to form a chemical bond, they combine in order to <u>achieve a more stable electron configuration.</u> As a consequence, the compounds formed exhibit completely different properties.

For example, when solid magnesium burns in air, it forms both magnesium oxide and magnesium nitride, which are gases.

A. what is atmospheric pressure?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

<em>What is atmospheric pressure? -------> Atmospheric pressure is a force in an area pushed against a surface by the weight of the atmosphere of Earth, a layer of air.</em>

<em>Why does the atmosphere exert pressure? -------> Because gas particles in the air—like particles of all fluids—are constantly moving and bumping into things, so they exert pressure. </em>

<em>What is the value of atmospheric pressure at sea level, in newtons per square centimeter? -------> Atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 10 N/cm2 or 100 kPa or about 10 m of water or about 760 mm of mercury, but varies with the weather, and of course altitude.</em>

<em>I hope this helps and have a great day!</em>

Evaluate the Lewis structures below and pick the statements that best describes the accuracy of each of the structures. There ma
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The structures shown by dots and lines to give the exact number of electrons in the outer most shell is explained by Lewis Structures.

Explanation:

Lewis structures are those structures in which the diagram is shown using the electron representation. They are easy to understand as the diagram completely depicts where the electrons are shared and where they are transferred. The diagram also explains where there is a single bond and where there is a di covalent bond or tri covalent bond explaining where the single , double or triple electron pair is shared. The electrons are shown by dots or lines.

For example CCl₄ can be shown as follows

                  ..

               .. Cl..

  ..                               ..

..Cl..----------C----------..Cl..

                   ..

                .. Cl..

The picture shows that each chlorine has six electrons in its outer shell and then a pair of electron is shared with carbon forming a single covalent bond.

Similarly methane CH4 can also be shown.

The hydrogen has one electron and it shares an electron from carbon stabilising itself forming methane.

How much heat is required to warm 1.50L of water from 25.0C to 100.0C? (Assume a density of 1.0g/mL for the water.)
Masteriza [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat required to warm given amount of water is 470.9 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 1.50 L = 1500 mL    (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{1500mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 1500mL)=1500g

To calculate the heat absorbed by the water, we use the equation:

q=mc\Delta T

where,

q = heat absorbed

m = mass of water = 1500 g

c = heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(100-25)^oC=75^oC

Putting values in above equation, we get:

q=1500g\times 4.186J/g^oC\times 75^oC=470925J=470.9kJ

Hence, the amount of heat required to warm given amount of water is 470.9 kJ
