The deficiency in Calcium ions causes degradation of the bones, teeth, among others. These are the primary parts of the body which contains calcium. Therefore, the lack of calcium in the body may lead to the damage of the bones, teeth. The specific deficiencies are scoliosis, polio, etc.

Which of the following reactions is spontaneous?
AveGali [126]
Answer is: <span>lumps os sugar dissolving in water.
Sugar has very good solubility in water and it dissolves readily, which is </span><span>example of a physical change.
</span>Gibbs free energy (G) determines if reaction will proceed spontaneously, if ΔG is negative, reaction is spontaneous <span>(ΔG = ΔH - T·ΔS).
</span>In other examples, reactions are spontaneous in reverse way, for example spontaneous is forming sodium chlorine from sodium metal and chlorine gas, but not sodium chloride forming sodium metal and chlorine gas, because a lot of energy is needed for that reaction.

Which element, when combined with Iodine, would most likely form an ionic compound?
uranmaximum [27]

In an ionic compound the atoms are linked via ionic bonds. These are formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge whereas the atom that accepts electrons gains a negative. This happens in accordance with the octet rule wherein each atom is surrounded by 8 electrons

In the given example:

The valence electron configuration of Iodine (I) = 5s²5p⁵

It needs only one electron to complete its octet.

In the given options:

K = 4s¹

C = 2s²2p²

Cl = 3s²3p⁵

P = 3s²3p³

Thus K can donate its valence electron to Iodine. As a result K, will gain a stable noble gas configuration of argon while iodine would gain an octet. This would also balance the charges as K⁺I⁻ creating a neutral molecule.

Ans: Potassium (K)

3. Does the siren of a moving police car seem to change pitch to the
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

As the police car moves towards them, the pitch of the police car's siren goes up because the sound waves get closer together in front of the police car. When the police car moves away from the person, the pitch goes down because the waves spread out behind the police and that makes the frequency go down.
