Answer:

Option C.

Because the cations give away an electron and the anions accept electrons

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a curvy arrow is placed on the reactants then it shows that an electron is being transferred from one atom to another.

And, it is known that when donation or transfer of an electron occurs from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond and the compound formed is known as ionic compound.

For example, sodium when chemically combines with chlorine atom then one valence electron is donated by sodium atom to the chlorine atom. This forms the ionic compound NaCl.

Thus, we can conclude that in the reactants there is a curvy arrow,  the direction of the arrow indicate that the cations give away an electron and the anions accept electrons.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

3.77 mol K₃N

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Molar Mass of K - 39.10 g/mol

Molar Mass of N - 14.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of K₃N - 3(39.10) + 14.01 = 131.31 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. Set up:                       \displaystyle 3.77 \ mol \ K_3N(\frac{131.31 \ g \ K_3N}{1 \ mol \ K_3N})
  2. Multiply/Divide:         \displaystyle 495.039 \ g \ K_3N

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

495.039 g K₃N ≈ 495 g K₃N

Which of the following would you except to see in the death of a star that is less than 0.5 solar mass
Ket [755]

B. White Dwarf.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The star would eventually run out of hydrogen fuel in the core. The core would shrink and heats up. As the temperature in the core increases, some of the helium in the core will undergo the triple-alpha process to produce elements such as Be, C, and O. The triple-alpha process will heat the outer layers of the star and blow them away from the core. This process will take a long time. Meanwhile, a planetary nebula will form.

As the outer layers of gas leave the core and cool down, they become no longer visible. The only thing left is the core of the star. Consider the Chandrasekhar Limit:

Chandrasekhar Limit: 1.4 \;M_\odot.

A star with core mass smaller than the Chandrasekhar Limit will not overcome electron degeneracy and end up as a white dwarf. Most of the outer layer of the star in question here will be blown away already. The core mass of this star will be only a fraction of its 0.5 \;M_\odot, which is much smaller than the Chandrasekhar Limit.

As the star completes the triple alpha process, its core continues to get smaller. Eventually, atoms will get so close that electrons from two nearby atoms will almost run into each other. By Pauli Exclusion Principle, that's not going to happen. Electron degeneracy will exert a strong outward force on the core. It would balance the inward gravitational pull and prevent the star from collapsing any further. The star will not go any smaller. Still, it will gain in temperature and glow on the blue end of the spectrum. It will end up as a white dwarf.

What is the value of 100cm^3 in dm^3​
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

0.1 dm³.

Explanation:

To obtain the value of 100 cm³ in dm³, do the following:

Recall:

1 cm³ = 0.001 dm³

Therefore,

100 cm³ = 100 cm³ × 0.001 dm³ / 1 cm³

100 cm³ = 0.1 dm³

Thus, 100 cm³ is equivalent to 0.1 dm³.
