Answer:

A. All of the answer choices are correct.

Explanation:

Giant sequoia trees

<u>They are long - living and the largest living organism on the planet Earth .</u>

They are majorly found in the western slopes of the Sierra Mountains present in the California .

These tress can grow to an average height of 50 to 85 meters , with diameter measuring 6 to 8 meters  .

  • They are also responsible for the generation of carbon dioxide via cellular respiration .
  • It is the net sink of the carbon dioxide .
  • It incorporates the carbon dioxide into the biomass .

NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H2O. What mass of water forms when 2.75 × 10–4 mol NaOH reacts completely? given the equation, 2.75 × 10–4 m
Hoochie [10]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H2O

We are given the amount of sodium hydroxide to be used up in the reaction. This will be the starting point for the calculation. 

2.75 x 10^-4 mol NaOH ( 1 mol H2O / 1 mol NaOH ) ( 18.02 g H2O / 1 mol H2O ) = 4.96 x 10^-3 g H2O</span>

Which of the following is true about neutralization reactions? Question 6 options: They involve strong acids and strong bases. T
EastWind [94]
The correct option is: ALL OF THE ABOVE.
A neutralization reaction is one in which acid and base react together in order to produce salt and water. The water formed is as a result of hydrogen ion and the hydroxyl ion which combine together to produce water. When a solution is neutralized, it implies that the salt is formed from equal weights of acid and base.

What type of bond would be formed between hypothetical elements X and Y in the the compound XY based on their electronegativity
Mnenie [13.5K]

The bond is polar covalent because the difference in electronegativity is greater than 0.4, but  less than 1.7.

Electronegativity refers to the ability of an atom in a compound to attract the electrons of the bond towards itself. It is a periodic trend that increases across the period but decreases down the group.

The electronegativity difference between the two atoms as shown in the question is 1.55. This means that the bond is polar covalent because the difference in electronegativity is greater than 0.4, but  less than 1.7.

Methane burns in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. Which of the tollowing represents a preliminary, unbalanced equatio
WITCHER [35]

So first we need to know what the formulas are:

Methane: CH_{4}

Oxygen: O_{2}

Carbon Dioxide: CO_{2}

Water: H_{2}O

So then we follow the equation as specified in the question. Note that it does not need to be balanced, as the question states it wants the unbalanced equation:

CH_{4}+O_{2} → CO_{2}+H_{2}O

This is the preliminary, unbalanced equation with the correct chemical formulas.

Use the periodic table to determine the number of valence electrons in each of the following elements.
pogonyaev
Answer:
Na= 1, Ar= 8, V= 5, F= 7


Explanation:
You can determine the number of valence electrons in an element by looking the the group/column # on the periodic table. Elements in the same family/ group are organized by columns (vertical). Elements in the same column have the same number of valence electrons (electrons of the outermost shell) and consequently similar properties.
Simply put, GROUP #= # VALENCE E-

There are exceptions to this, especially when determining the amount of valence electrons in elements that are in a compound or in transition metal elements. For transition metals (that have different oxidation states- different # of valence electrons for the same element) I’d just look it up
