What best explains whether bromine (Br) or neon (Ne) is more likely to form a covalent bond? On left, a purple circle labeled Br

surrounded by 4 concentric circles. The inner circle has 2 small green spheres. The second circle has 8 small green spheres. The third circle has 18 small green spheres. The fourth circle has 5 small green spheres. On right, a purple circle labeled Ne surrounded by 3 concentric circles. The inner circle has 2 small green spheres. The middle circle has 8 small green spheres. The outer circle has 8 small green spheres. Bromine forms covalent bonds because it has seven valence electrons, but neon has eight valence electrons and already fulfills the octet rule. Bromine forms covalent bonds because it has many electron shells, but neon has only two electron shells and is tightly bound to its electrons. Neon forms covalent bonds because it can share its valence electrons, but bromine has seven valence electrons and can gain only one more electron. Neon forms covalent bonds because it has only two electron shells, but bromine has many electron shells and will lose electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule.

Answer:

I believe the answer is Bromine forms covalent bonds because it has many electron shells, but neon has only two electron shells and is tightly bound to its electrons.

Explanation:

valence electrons are the outermost shell, so when you go through keeping that in mind it helps you find the right answer

The diagram shows two charged objects, X and Y.
masya89 [10]

The missing diagram is in the attachments.

Answer: X: positive Y: positive

Explanation: Electric field is a vector quantity, which means it can be represented by a vector arrow: the arrow points in the direction of electric field and its length represents the magnitude at a given location. There are another representation of the electric field called electric field lines, <u>in which the line points away from a positively charged source and towards a negatively charged source</u>. This occurs because it follows a pattern, where the lines points in the direction that a positive test charge would have if it is accelerating on the line.

Analyzing the diagram, it can be observed that the lines are pointing away from both of the charged objects. Therefore, both X and Y are <u>positively charged</u>.

Ten students stand in a circle and are told to make a transverse wave. What best describes the motion of the students? Each stud
Bond [772]

Lifting hands and the down by one student at a time best describe the presentation of the transverse wave by students. Option D is correct.

<h3>What is a Transverse wave?</h3>
  • The wave in which the oscillation of particles is is perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer.

  • The students can make a transverse wave by raising their hands up and then down, one student at a time.

  • The raised hand represents the oscillation of particles while the sequence of the raising hand represents the direction of energy transfer.

Therefore, lifting hands and the down by one student at a time best describe the presentation of the transverse wave by students.

A particle moves along the curve below. y = sqrt(1 + x^3) As it reaches the point (2, 3), the y-coordinate is increasing at a ra
blagie [28]

Answer:7 cm/s

Explanation:

Given

Particle move along curve

y=\sqrt{1+x^3}

As it reaches the (2,3) its y coordinate is increasing at 14 cm/s

Differentiating y w.r.t time

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{3x^2}{2\sqrt{1+x^3}}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

Now at (2,3)

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{3\cdot 2^2}{2\sqrt{1+2^3}}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

14=\frac{3\times 4}{2\times \sqrt{9}}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=7 cm/s

The potential energy for a certain mass moving in one dimension is given by U(x)=(2.0J/m3)x3−(15J/m2)x2+(36J/m)x−23JU(x)=(2.0J/m
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:x=2 and x=3

Explanation:

Given

Potential Energy for a certain mass is

U(x)=2x^3-15x^2+36x-23

and we know force is given by

F=-\frac{\mathrm{d} U}{\mathrm{d} x}

F=-(2\times 3x^2-15\times 2x+36)

For Force to be zero F=0

\Rightarrow 6x^2-30x+36=0

\Rightarrow x^2-5x+6=0

\Rightarrow x^2-2x-3x+6=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(x-3)=0

Therefore at x=2 and x=3 Force on particle is zero.
