Answer:
Space junk is travelling so fast that a collision with an astronaut or a spacecraft could be disastrous.
Explanation:
Space junk orbits the Earth at speeds of about 28 000 km/h.
That's so fast that even an orbiting fleck of paint has enough kinetic energy to cause impact craters on the surface of a spacecraft. They are even more dangerous to an astronaut on a space walk.
Much of the space debris is larger and more dangerous than a fleck of paint.
One rough estimate of the amount of space debris is
<em> </em><u>Size</u><em> </em> <u>Number of objects</u>
< 1 cm 200 000 000
1 cm to 10 cm 700 000
> 10 cm 30 000
Satellites, etc. 18 000
The chances of collision are small, but any collision can be disastrous.
The equilibrium constant (Kc) is the product of the equilibrium concentrations of the products raised to their corresponding stoichiometric coefficients divided by the reactants as well. In this case the equilibrium concentration of Cl2 which also applies to SO2 is 1.3x10^-2. The final equilibrium concentration of SO2Cl2 is 9x10^-3. Kc is then equal to 0.0188.
Nitrogen could form 3 covalent bonds if each of its unpaired electrons participates in one bond.
Nitrogen atom forms 3 bonds based on octet rule, because it has 5 valence electrons. That means it needs 3 bonds or three more electrons.
<h3>Further Explanation;</h3><h3>Chemical bond </h3>
- A bond is a type of force that is formed between atoms of different through the sharing or transfer of electrons.
<h3>Octet rule</h3>
- According to the octet rule for an atom to be stable it must have maximum number of electrons in its outermost energy level. Therefore an atom with four electrons requires four more electrons to attain stability.
<h3>Types of chemical bonds.</h3><h3>Covalent bond </h3>
- This is a type of bond that is formed between non-metal atoms. It is formed as a result of sharing electrons between non-metal atoms involved.
- When atoms involved contribute equal number of electrons to the bond formation, the type of bond is known as covalent bond
- A covalent bond may be a dative covalent bond, when the shared electrons come from one atom.
<h3>Ionic bond </h3>
- This is a type of bond that occurs between metal ions and non-metal ions. Ionic bond occurs as a result of transfer of electrons from one metal atom to another non-metal atom.
- After the transfer of electrons, metal atom loses electron to form a cation while the non-metal atom gains electrons to form an anion.
