The  characteristic of atoms is

They are the smallest  units of  matter

<u><em> Explanation</em></u>

Atoms are  the  smallest  constituent  units of matter  and they have  properties of chemical  elements.

Atoms  can not  be broken by any  chemical means.

Atoms of an elements combine together    to form compound.

In  addition atoms  consist nucleus  of positively charged protons, neutral neutrons with  negatively charged electrons.

For the reaction between aqueous solutions of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and barium hydroxide, Ba(OH)2, write
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we are asked to note down the complete molecular equation, complete ionic equation and the net ionic equation for the reaction between acetic acid (weak acid) and barium hydroxide (strong base), we proceed as shown below:

- Complete molecular equation:

2CH_3COOH(aq)+Ba(OH)_2(aq)\rightarrow Ba(CH_3COO)_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)

- Complete ionic equation: in this case, since acetic acid is a weak one, it is not ionized, so we do this:

2CH_3COOH(aq)+Ba^{2+}(aq)+2OH^-(aq)\rightarrow Ba^{2+}(aq)+2CH_3COO^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)

- Net ionic equation: in this case, we cancel out the barium ions as they are the spectators one because they are present at both reactants and products:

2CH_3COOH(aq)+2OH^-(aq)\rightarrow 2CH_3COO^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)\\\\CH_3COOH(aq)+OH^-(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq)+H_2O(l)

Best regards!

You are a scientist working on increasing the efficiency of appliances to waste less electricity. You are running experiments me
bezimeni [28]
Answer : Option A) 45.5%
 
Explanation : We use the formula of calculating energy efficiency which is as,

η (in %)= [P_{Out} / P_{in}] X 100 
where η is energy efficiency,
and P values are for energy out and in.

So plugging the given values, we get,

η (in %) = (11825.5 / 25978.8) X 100 = 45.5 %

Alika [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cadmium:(Cd)

Cadmium is transition metal present in group twelve. It is soft metal and properties are similar to the other group members like zinc and mercury. Its atomic number is forty eight and have two valance electrons.

Electronic configuration:

Cd₄₈ = [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s²

Vanadium: (V)

It is present in group five. It is malleable and ductile transition metal. Its atomic number is twenty three. Vanadium have five valance electrons.

Electronic configuration:

V₂₃ =[Ar] 3d³ 4s²

Xenon: Xe

Xenon is present in group eighteen. It is noble gas. Its outer most valance shell is complete that's why it is inert. its atomic number is fifty four. Xenon have eight valance electrons.

Electronic configuration:

Xe₅₄ = [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁶

Iodine: (I)

Iodine is present in group seventeen. Its outer most valance shell have seven electrons. Iodine is the member of halogen family. It gain one electron to complete the octet. its atomic number is fifty three.

Electronic configuration:

I₅₃ = [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁵

Potassium: (K)

Potassium is present in group one. it is alkali metal. Its atomic number is nineteen. Its valance shell has one electron. Potassium loses its one valance electron and gets stable electronic configuration.

Electronic configuration:

K₁₉ = [Ar] 4s¹

Strontium: Sr

Strontium is present in group two. it is alkaline earth metal. its atomic number is thirty eight and have two valance electrons.

Electronic configuration:

Sr₃₈ = [Kr] 5s²
