Answer:

your question is incomplete as the options are not given. I guess following is the complete question.

Which of these atoms is most likely to share electrons with other atoms?

a) chlorine (7 valence electrons)

b) calcium (2 valence electrons)

c) argon (8 valence electrons)

d) carbon (4 valence electrons)

e) potassium (1 valence electron)

The correct option is d) carbon (4 valence electrons)

Explanation:

Carbon has four electrons in its valence shell. In order to complete the 8 electrons in its valence shell carbon has to make four covalent bonds by sharing its four electrons with the other atom. Carbon atom will neither gain the electrons nor it losses the electrons to follow the octet rule. So in the above mentioned options carbon is the atom that will share maximum electrons.

→ Chlorine has 7 electrons, it will gain 1 electron. It will not do the sharing.

→ Calcium has 2 electrons, it will lost these 2 electrons to complete its shell.

→ Argon has already a completed shell. It will not react with other atom.

→ Potassium has only 1 valence electron which it will lose to complete its shell.

What help in reversing direction of current of current​
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

<em>To reverse the direction of an electric current, we simply reverse the voltage either automatically with the help of some switching circuitry or manually by changing the voltage source terminals connection.  </em>

Explanation:

For electric current to flow, there must be a potential difference, usually referred to as the voltage. The electric current flow is analogous to the flow of water under the action of a pump, through a series of pipe connections. The voltage is similar to the driving action of the pump, and current flows the same way water flows. The resistance due to drag on the pipe wall is equivalent to electric resistance. For current to flow in the reverse direction, the voltage or rather, the potential difference is changed, causing the current to flow in the opposite direction. This can be done by switching the terminals of the voltage source, or by automatic means. The automatic switching can be done with a transistor based circuitry.

You have a set of calipers that can measure thicknesses of a few inches with an uncertainty of ± 0.005 inches. You measure the t
Bond [772]

Answer:

a) x = (0.0114 ± 0.0001) in , b) the number of decks is 5

Explanation:

a) The thickness of the deck of cards (d) is measured and the thickness of a card (x) is calculated

        x = d / 52

        x = 0.590 / 52

        x = 0.011346 in

Let's look for uncertainty

       Δx = dx /dd Δd

       Δx = 1/52 Δd

       Δx = 1/52  0.005

       Δx = 0.0001 in

The result of the calculation is

        x = (0.0114 ± 0.0001) in

b) You want to reduce the error to Δx = 0.00002, the number of cards to be measured is

           #_cards = n 52

The formula for thickness is

           x = d / n 52

Uncertainty

          Δx = 1 / n 52  Δd

         n = 1/52 Δd / Δx

         n = 1/52 0.005 / 0.00002

         n = 4.8

Since the number of decks must be an integer the number of decks is 5
