ANEK [815]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The statement is considered to be true

Explanation:

The statement is true because when elements chemically combine, there are interactions between their valence electrons, causing the two elements to be bonded together to form what is known as a compound.

Compounds can only be formed from interactions between two or more elements. examples include:

Hydrogen + Oxygen = H2O (water)

Sodium + Chlorine = NaCl

Note that if atoms of the same element combine, what is formed is a molecule, not a compound. Some atoms usually do this to attain stability. examples include = O2 H2 and  N2. They are oxygen molecule, hydrogen molecule, and nitrogen molecule respectively.

Compounds are only formed when different elements combine to attain electronic stability.

If a sample contains 21.2g N how many moles of N does it contain
tigry1 [53]

Hey there!

The molar mass of nitrogen is 14.007.

Convert grams to moles:

21.2 ÷ 14.007 = 1.51

The sample containing 21.2g of nitrogen contains 1.51 moles of nitrogen.

Hope this helps!

A solution is prepared by dissolving 2.61 g ethanol (C2H5OH) in 16.2 g water. What is the molality (mol/kg) of C2H5OH in the sol
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

3.50 molal

Explanation:

Molality → Moles of solute / kg of solvent.

Let's convert the solvent's mass from g to kg

16.2 g . 1kg / 1000 g = 0.0162 kg

Let's determine the moles from the solute

2.61 g . 1 mol / 46 g = 0.0567 moles

Molality → 0.0567 mol / 0.0162 kg = 3.50 m

15. List and define the characteristics of a wave. You should have 4 complete content related sentences (one for each part of th
forsale [732]

The characteristics of wave are amplitude, speed , frequency and wavelength.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Amplitude is defined as the distance covered by the particles or molecules moving in a wave nature. So the maximum positive and negative peak position is termed as amplitude of the wave.

Every wave forms a series of crests and trough regions. The crest region is the positive amplitude while the trough region is the negative amplitude. The distance between two successive crests and troughs are termed as wavelength.

A single crest and trough forms a complete cycle. So the number of times a cycle is repeated for a given time is known as frequency. Speed is defined as the product of frequency and wavelength of the wave. In other words, speed of a wave is the rate at which the particles are moving a given area per unit time.
