Answer:

The metric system is an internationally recognised decimalised system of measurement. It is in widespread use, and where it is adopted, it is the only or most common system of weights and measures (see metrication). It is now known as the International System of Units (SI).

What type of reaction provide energy within a red giant star?<br><br> and how come?

Dafna1 [17]

"A red giant is a star that has exhausted the primary supply of hydrogen fuel at its core. An average-sized star like our Sun will spend the final 10 percent of its life as a red giant. In this phase, a star's surface temperature drops to between 3,140 and 6,741°F (1,727 and 3,727°C) and its diameter expands to 10 to 1,000 times that of the Sun. The star takes on a reddish color, which is what gives it its name."

Which is easier to remove: a valence electron from, Li or Na? Explain why.

scZoUnD [109]

The atomic number of Li is 3

Electron configuration of Li : 1s² 2s¹

The atomic number of Na is 11

Electron configuration of Na : 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹

Thus there is one electron in the valence shell of Li (2s¹) and that of Na (3s¹). However, the valence electron in Na is in a shell that is farther away from the nucleus compared to that of Li. As a result, the Na valence electron will be held less tightly by the nucleus i.e. it will experience a reduced nuclear attraction and can be removed easily than the Li 2s electron.

When water is electrolyzed, it splits into hydrogen and oxygen.

Westkost [7]

The mass of water is equal to the combined mass of hydrogen and oxygen.

This is defined as the quantity of matter in a physical body. The electrolysis reaction of water can be seen below:

2 H₂O ---> 2 H₂ + O₂

We can deduce that 36 grams of H₂O dissociated to give 4 grams of H₂ and 32 grams of O₂ which option D was chosen as the appropriate choice.

A cylinder contains 250 g of Helium at 200 K. The external pressure is constant at 1 atm. The temperature of the system is raise

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

There is 96200 J or 96 kJ of heat released.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of helium = 250 grams

Temperature = 200 K

Temperature is raised by 74 K

The heat capacity of helium = 20.8 J/mol*K

Molecular weight for helium = 4 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate moles of Helium

Moles of Helium = mass of Helium / molar mass of helium

Moles of helium = 250 grams / 4g/mol

Moles of helium = 62.5 moles

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate heat

Q = n*c*ΔT or

⇒ with Q = the heat released in Joule

⇒ with n = moles of helium = 62.5 moles

⇒ with c = the heat capacity of helium = 20.8 J/mol*K

⇒ with ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 74 K

Q = 62.5 mol * 20.8 J/mol*K * 74 K

Q = 96200 J = 96 kJ

Since the temperature is raised, this is an exothermic reaction. The heat is released.

There is 96200 J or 96 kJ of heat released.

Predict the products that will be formed by the reaction below. Al(s)+Na2SO4(s)—>

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Al₂(SO₄)₃ and Na

Explanation:

Al has a charge of +3, Na has a charge of +1 and SO₄ has a charge of -2. Since cations and anions will bond we know that Al will bond with SO₄ leaving Na by itself (since this is a single replacement reaction). When Al bonds with SO₄ it makes aluminum sulfate which is Al₂(SO₄)₃ and Na will be left by itself.
