Which of the following atoms releases more energy than oxygen when an electron is added to its valence energy level?

1 answer:

5 0

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.

ivolga24 [154]

The term sensitivity in Analytical Chemistry is "the slope of the calibration curve or a function of analyte concentration or amount".

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In a sample, the little amounts of substances can be accurately evaluated by a method is termed as "Analytical sensitivity". This detect a target analyte like an antibody or antigen, process is considered as potential of a test to and generally demonstrated as the analyte's minimum detectable concentration.

The acceptable diagnostic sensitivity is not guaranteed by high analytical sensitivity. The percentage of individuals who have a given disarray who are identified by the method as positive for the disarray is known as "Diagnostic sensitivity".

Assume that you have a cylinder with a movable piston. What would happen to the gas pressure inside the cylinder if you do the f

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

A. The pressure will increase 4 times. P₂ = 4 P₁

B. The pressure will decrease to half its value. P₂ = 0.5 P₁

C. The pressure will decrease to half its value. P₂ = 0.5 P₁

Explanation:

Initially, we have n₁ moles of a gas that occupy a volume V₁ at temperature T₁ and pressure P₁.

What would happen to the gas pressure inside the cylinder if you do the following?

Part A: Decrease the volume to one-fourth the original volume while holding the temperature constant. Express your answer in terms of the variable P initial.

V₂ = 0.25 V₁. According to Boyle's law,

P₁ . V₁ = P₂ . V₂

P₁ . V₁ = P₂ . 0.25 V₁

P₁ = P₂ . 0.25

P₂ = 4 P₁

Part B: Reduce the Kelvin temperature to half its original value while holding the volume constant. Express your answer in terms of the variable P initial.

T₂ = 0.5 T₁. According to Gay-Lussac's law,

$\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} =\frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} =\frac{P_{2}}{0.5T_{1}}\\\\P_{2}=0.5P_{1}$
