Ionization energy increases from left to right in the row and from bottom to top in a column. Also as we get closer to the nucleus it would be harder to take electrons out. B  (atomic #5) has 2 layers of electron 2 and 3 atom in each layer. P has 15 so it would be 2,8 and 5 respectively. Ca is 20 so 2,8,8,2 and Zn is 30 and it would be 2,18,8,2.
For energy between second and third ionization we are looking at taking out the 3rd electron. B already has 3 electron in the first layer so its easy to take them all. P has 5 in the last layer so again easy. But when we look at Ca and Zn after the 2nd electron (in the last layer) we should change the layer go one layer inside. So this needs more energy. To pick between Zn and Ca (they are in the same row)  I mentioned earlier that in one row as we go to the right ionization energy increases so the answer is Zn.

how would you write equation to show how buffers H2CO3 and NaHCO3 behave when (a) HCl is added and (b) NaOH is added.
Vlad1618 [11]
<span>H2CO3 <---> H+ + HCO3-
NaHCO3 <---> Na+ + HCO3-

When acid is added in the buffer, the excess H+ of that acid reacts with HCO3- to form H2CO3, and due to this NaHCO3 dissociates into HCO3- to attain the equilibrium. and hence there is no net effect of H+ due to pH remain almost constant. when a base is added to the buffer, the OH- ion of base react eith H+ ion present in buffer, then to attain equilibrium of H+ ion, the H2CO3 dissociates to produce H+ ion, but now there is the excess of HCO3- due to which Na+ ion react with them to attain equilibrium of HCO3-. hence there is again no net change in H+ ion due to which pH remain constant.....</span>

What is the process that changes the composition of rocks by dissolving them called?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Chemical weathering

Explanation:

This is a chemical weathering since chemical change is involved. water flows through the rock, it dissolve the rock particles, reacting with the minerals salts in the rock there by producing new substances, ultimately leading to wearing off of the rock particles

What will be the new volume of a 250 mL sample of gas at 300 K and 1 atm if heated to 350 K at 1 atm?
AlekseyPX

The   new volume of a 250  Ml   sample of gas at 300k  and  1atm  if  heated to 350 k  at  1 atm  is  291.67  Ml



<u>calculation</u>

This  is  solved  using  the  Charles  law formula  since the  pressure  is constant.

that is V1/T1 = V2/T2  where,

V1 =250 ml

T1=300  K

V2=?

T2= 350 k


by making V2 the subject   of  the formula  by  multiplying  both side by T2

V2= T2V1/T1

V2= (350 K x 250 ml) / 300K =291.67 Ml
