Answer:
Boron
Explanation:
You can find this by looking at the number of protons in Boron, 5.
Then calculate how many electrons you are given, in this case the 2 core plus the 3 valence equal 5 total electrons
Neutral elements have the same number of protons and electrons, so your answer would be the element with 5 electrons, Boron.
You can also know this by using electron configuration. Since you kow there are 5 electrons then you can use EC to find out where your element is. In this case it is: 1s2 2s2 2p1
B- Predict the damages due to an earthquake
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
1. With the aid of natural hues, the fox can change its color based on the environment it found itself in. For example, during summer and spring, fox color changes to dark to provide itself cover in the environment that is characterized by the brown dirt. Similarly, the fox color changes to white during winter and fall to blend with the snow.
2. In a bid to domesticate fox, it has been observed over many generations that the domesticated fox compared to wild fox has floppy ears and curly tails. The stress hormone level has reduced significantly and they possess a smaller adrenal gland.
Answer:
2Al(s) +3Ni²⁺(aq) ⟶ 2Al³⁺(aq) + 3Ni(s)
Explanation:
The unbalanced equation is
Al(s) + Ni²⁺(aq) ⟶ Ni(s) + Al³⁺(aq)
(i) Half-reactions
Al(s) ⟶ Al³⁺(aq) + 3e⁻
Ni²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⟶ Ni(s)
(ii) Balance charges
2 × [Al(s) ⟶ Al³⁺(aq) + 3e⁻]
3 × [Ni²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⟶ Ni(s)]
gives
2Al(s) ⟶ 2Al³⁺(aq) + 6e⁻
3Ni²⁺(aq) + 6e⁻ ⟶ 3Ni(s)
(iii) Add equations
2Al(s) ⟶ 2Al³⁺(aq) + 6e⁻
<u>3Ni²⁺(aq) + 6e⁻ ⟶ 3Ni(s) </u>
2Al(s) +3Ni²⁺(aq) + <em>6e</em>⁻ ⟶ 2Al³⁺(aq) + 3Ni(s) + <em>6e⁻
</em>
Simplify (cancel electrons)
2Al(s) +3Ni²⁺(aq) ⟶ 2Al³⁺(aq) + 3Ni(s)
