Answer:

-2

Explanation:

The model of the oxygen atom will probably have an electrical charge of -2.

Now let us explain how to find the charge on any atom.

The charge on an atom is the number of electrons gained or lost by specie. Electrons are usually lost in any atom so that they can attain stability.

These electrons are removed from the valence shell because they are the outermost shell electrons. They are most weakly held electrons in an atom.

An atom of oxygen has:

     8 electrons with a configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁴

   Charge = number of protons - number of electrons

        neutral oxygen has 8 electrons and protons, charge is 0

One of the great upcoming sports in the Olympics is the sport of curling. Write a brief essay on the uses of momentum collisions
Usimov [2.4K]

The Olympic sport of curling is one that is practically designed to show Physics in motion. Curling is a sport in which two teams alternate sliding smoothed stone pucks down an ice rink court with the intent to seat their stone closest to the center of the target (called the house). Each team has eight stones, meaning that the team that goes second has the (could be) massive advantage of sending the last stone.  
The mass of the stone is important in that the more massive a stone (m) and the speed at which it travels (v) dictates it's momentum (momentum=mxv). As the curling stone slides down the ice (which is relatively frictionless unless acted upon by other players or objects) and having inertia, continues in it's straight course (again, unless acted upon by outside forces). If the stone hits another stone, it transfers some of its momentum in an elastic collision to that stone and the original stone is deflected in a calculable manner.   
Collisions are used in the game to either clear opponent's stones from the house or out of their defensive positions, or to make adjustments to one's stones present in the house, all based on the momentum of the moving stone, and its transference.

The visible spectrum of the Cr(acac)3
Sati [7]

Explanation:

The observable visible spectrum of Cr(acac)3 complex is different from that of

[Cr(en)3]Br3 due to strength of bonded ligand in the coordination sphere.

en is a strong field ligand compared to acac thus pairing  occurs. In both the complexes

Cr is in +3 state, configuration [Ar] 3d^3. There are 3 unpaired e in Cr(acac)3 whereas 1 unpaired e in [Cr(en)3]Br3 due to pairing.
