The answer is b. fluorine (F). This is because fluorine is a more electronegative (electron loving) atom compared to oxygen. It is found on the 7th group of the periodic table, so it has 7 valence electrons. It only needs one more electron to achieve the ideal number of valence electrons which is 8. Oxygen, on the other hand, is in group 6 so it needs 2 more electrons to complete its valency. Helium can't be the answer because it is already in group 8, meaning it is already stable and won't release energy.

mel-nik [20]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The rate of certain reaction is given by the following rate law:

rate=k[H_2]^2[NH_3]

At a certain concentration of H_2 and [tex]I_2, the initial rate of reaction is 0.120 M/s. What would the initial rate of the reaction be if the concentration of [tex]H_2 were halved.Answer : The initial rate of the reaction will be, 0.03 M/sExplanation :Rate law expression for the reaction:[tex]rate=k[H_2]^2[NH_3]

As we are given that:

Initial rate = 0.120 M/s

Expression for rate law for first observation:

0.120=k[H_2]^2[NH_3] ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

R=k(\frac{[H_2]}{2})^2[NH_3] ....(2)

Dividing 2 by 1, we get:

\frac{R}{0.120}=\frac{k(\frac{[H_2]}{2})^2[NH_3]}{k[H_2]^2[NH_3]}

\frac{R}{0.120}=\frac{1}{4}

R=0.03M/s

Therefore, the initial rate of the reaction will be, 0.03 M/s

The balanced equation below shows the products that are formed when butane (C4H10) is combusted.
Nataly [62]

Answer:

2:8

Explanation:

The reaction equation is a given as:

         2C₄H₁₀   +    130₂   →    8CO₂     +     10H₂O  

From the reaction equation, the mole ratio is 2:8

Butane is C₄H₁₀

Carbon dioxide CO₂

From the reaction;

       2 moles of butane will produce 8 moles of carbon dioxide

Chemical reactions can be detected by precipitation of a _____ from a solution.
RideAnS [48]

Answer: solid

Explanation: Chemical reactions are those which involve rearrangement of atoms.

Chemical changes are accompanied by following changes:

1) Absorption or release of heat

2) Change in color

3) Formation of gas bubbles

4) Formation of a solid product called as precipitate

Example of formation of precipitate or solid in chemical reaction:2AgNO_3(aq)+BaCl_2(aq)\rightarrow 2AgCl(s)+Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)

Answer: It showed that all atoms contain electrons.

Explanation:

  • J.J. Thomson's experiments inside a cathode ray tube in the presence of an electric field showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles "electrons".
  • Also, Thomson's plum pudding model of the atom had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup."
  • Furthermore, Rutherford's gold foil experiment showed that the atom is mostly empty space with a tiny positively-charged nucleus.
  • Then, Rutherford proposed the nuclear model of the atom based on these results.
