Answer:

The symbol "Sn" comes from the Latin word for tin, "stannum." Tin has ten stable isotopes. This is the most stable isotopes of all the elements. The most abundant isotope is tin-120.Tin is too expensive. Also, tin does not 'rust', although it oxidizes. Your rust is iron oxide. Galvanized steel is steel with a thin zinc coating, likely hot-dip galvanization.

Explanation:

The symbol Sn for tin is an abbreviation of the Latin word for tin, stannumIsotopes of tin. Tin (50Sn) is the element with the greatest number of stable isotopes (ten; three of them are potentially radioactive but have not been observed to decay), which is probably related to the fact that 50 is a "magic number" of protons.Uses and properties

Below 13°C it slowly changes to a powder form. Tin has many uses. It takes a high polish and is used to coat other metals to prevent corrosion, such as in tin cans, which are made of tin-coated steel. Alloys of tin are important, such as soft solder, pewter, bronze and phosphor bronze.

Hope This Helps Have A Nice Day :) !!

What is the best example of electromagnetic energy in everyday life

sertanlavr [38]

Electromagnetic Radiation. Do you listen to the radio, watch TV, or use a microwave oven? All these devices make use of electromagnetic waves. Radio waves, microwaves, visible light, and x rays are all examples of electromagnetic waves that differ from each other in wavelength.

How to balance lead and silver acetate yields lead (||) acetate and silver

arsen [322]

The given elements put into an equation using their symbols are as follows:
Pb + $AgC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}$ = $Pb(II){(C_{2}H_{3}O_{2})_2}$ + Ag

Since there are 2 Pb on the right side of the equation, you would change the coefficient of Pb on the left side to 2:
2Pb + $AgC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}$ = $Pb(II){(C_{2}H_{3}O_{2})_2}$ + Ag

Since there are 2 Acetate on the right side of the equation, you would change the coefficient of Silver Acetate on the left side to 2:
2Pb + $2AgC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}$ = $Pb(II){(C_{2}H_{3}O_{2})_2}$ + Ag

Now there are 2 Silver on the left side, so you change the coefficient of Silver on the right side to 2:
2Pb + $2AgC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}$ = $Pb(II){(C_{2}H_{3}O_{2})_2}$ + 2Ag

That is your final equation

The coefficients are 2 + 2 = 1 + 2

How many magnesium atoms are contained in 3.75 moles of magnesium?

Katarina [22]

In 1 mole of magnesium there are Avogadro's number of atoms are present.
Avogadro's number = 6.023 x 10²³
1 mole = 6.023 x 10²³ atoms
3.75 moles = 3.75 x 6.023 x 10²³
=2.26 x 10²⁴
So, in 3.75 moles of magnesium there are 2.26 x 10²⁴ atoms of magnesium are present.

PLEASE HELP

Deffense [45]

The answer is A. Isotopes only differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus of their atoms. Otherwise, all other subatomic particles are the same. The isotope with the more neutrons in its nucleus is therefore, heavier (have higher mass number). They share the same chemical properties but have slight physical differences such as boiling points with the heavier element having a slightly higher boiling point that the lighter element.
