Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Transition elements are the elements that have incompletely filled d-orbitals. Their general electronic configuration is ns (n-1)d.

For example, Ti has atomic number 22 and its electronic configuration is [Ar]4s^{2}3d^{2}.

Due to similar energies in ns and (n-1)d orbitals electrons can be easily transferred. This causes transition metals to show variable oxidation states.

Thus, we can conclude that it is true regarding the transition elements  that multiple oxidation states resulting from the involvement of d electrons in bonding is a characteristic of transition elements.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer: 20 mg Te-99 remains after 12 hours.

Explanation:  N(t) = N(0)*(1/2)^(t/t1/2)

                        N(t) = (80 mg)*(0.5)^(12/6)

N(t) = 20 mg remains after 12 hours

Please help me with this!: Beverages such as pop and fizzy water are carbonated by dissolved CO2. Explain in detail why pop will
brilliants [131]

Answer:

If the cap is left off, some of the dissolved CO2 can escape as gas from the bottle, making the pop go flat faster (less dissolved CO2 in pop). If the cap is placed tightly, the gaseous CO2 cannot readily escape the bottle thus your pop won't go flat

Explanation:

If the cap is left off, some of the dissolved CO2 can escape as gas from the bottle, making the pop go flat faster. If the cap is placed tightly, the gaseous CO2 cannot readily escape the bottle thus your pop won't go flat.

Just some fun related concept:

A similar concept comes into play for the reason behind why pop tastes better in fridge then just keeping at normal temperature. This is because gases tend to have high solubility at cold temperatures thus CO2 is more readily dissolved in fridge than outside room temperature which is why it tastes great!

Answer:

Law of conservation of mass

Ernest Rutherford

Explanation:

The basic law of behavior of matter that states that "mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction or physical change".

This is the law of conservation of mass. It is very essential in understanding most chemical reaction. Also, in quantitative analysis, this law is pivotal.

Ernest Rutherford was the scientist that stated that the nucleus is made up of positive charge. It was not until James Chadwick in 1932 discovered the neutron that we had an understanding of this nuclear component.

Rutherford surmised from his experiment that because most the alpha particles passed through the thin Gold foil and just a tiny fraction was deflected back, the atom is made is made up of small nucleus that is positively charged.
