I'm pretty sure all 4 are subatomic particles but if i had to guess i'd be Photons

The correct answer is a photon.

A photon refers to a particle signifying a quantum of light or other electromagnetic radiation. A photon carries energy equivalent to the radiation frequency, however, exhibits zero rest mass.

A subatomic particle refers to a unit of energy or matter, that is, the basic makeup of all the matter. On the basis of modern atomic theory, an atom exhibits a nucleus, also known as the core or its center. The nucleus comprises subatomic particles, that is, neutrons and protons. The neutrons are neutral particles, and the protons are positively-charged particles. A cloud of very small subatomic particles known as electrons surrounds the nucleus. The electrons are negatively charged particles.

Describe a chemical formula give an example

Vlad1618 [11]

A chemical formula identifies each constituent element by its chemical symbol and indicates the proportionate number of atoms of each element.

<em>For example, the empirical formula of ethanol may be written C2H6O because the molecules of ethanol all contain two carbon atoms, six hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom.</em>

Determine the hybrid orbital of this molecule.

Pavel [41]

The hybrid orbital of this molecule is $sp^3$ . Hence, option C is correct.

<h3>What is hybridisation?</h3>

Hybridization is defined as the concept of mixing two atomic orbitals to give rise to a new type of hybridized orbitals.

In this compound, $sp^3$ a hybrid orbital makes I-O bonds. Due to $sp^3$ hybridization iodate should have tetrahedral geometry but because of the presence of lone pair of electrons the shape of $IO^{3-}$ the ion is pyramidal.

The hybrid orbital of this molecule is $sp^3$ . Hence, option C is correct.

A cheetah can run 112km/h over a 100-m distance. what is this speed in meters per second

Naya [18.7K]

First convert the 112 km/hr ratio into m/s (meters per second). To do this you multiply 112 km with 1000 m/km (since there's 1000 m in one km). You get 112000 m. Then multiply 1 hr with 60 min/hr (since there's 60 min in one hr. You get 60 min, but you want seconds, so multiply 60 min with 60 s/min to get 3600 s. There you go! Your answer is the speed of 112000m/3600s, but you can simplify that to 31.11m/s (since the answer should be in ? meters per 1 second.

Also, the "100-m-distance" part of the question is just to throw you off, because one particular speed obviously stays constant over any distance. Hope that helps :)

KOH (aq) + HNO(little3) (aq) = KNO(little 3) (aq) + H20 (1)

Yuki888 [10]

The reaction already balanced

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Equalization of chemical reactions can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:

• 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c, etc.

• 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index (subscript) between reactant and product

• 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1

For gas combustion reaction which is a reaction of hydrocarbons with oxygen produces CO₂ and H₂O (water vapor). can use steps:

Balancing C, H and the last O

Reaction

KOH (aq) + HNO₃ (aq) ⇒ KNO₃ (aq) + H₂0 (l)

give coefficient

aKOH (aq) + bHNO₃ (aq) ⇒ KNO₃ (aq) + cH₂0 (l)

K : left = a, right = 1⇒a=1

N : left = b, right =1, b=1

H: left = a, right a+b=2c⇒1+1=2c⇒2=2c⇒c=1

KOH (aq) + HNO₃ (aq) ⇒ KNO₃ (aq) + H₂0 (l)⇒ already balanced
