Gases from a dead star gather and contract statement describes the formation of a nebula.

<u>Option: D</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • A nebula is a massive cloud of spatially dust and gas. Many nebulae derive from the gas and dust pushed out by a dying star's eruption, like a supernova. Other nebulae are environments where the formation of new stars begins.
  • Five forms of cloudy or nebulous celestial bodies are planetary nebulae, emission nebulae, transparent nebulae, supernova remnants and dark nebulae.
  • The He and H are predominantly responsible for dust and gases, which are widespread but gravity can begin to pull around each other clusters of dust and gas gradually.
  • As these clusters grow bigger and bigger, their gravity becomes better and better. The clump of dusts and gases finally becomes so heavy that it drops from its own gravity.

How do hydroxyl ions and hydronium ions affect pH?
Nookie1986 [14]
Hydroxyl ions are OH⁻ while hydronium ions are H₃O⁺ which is essentially H⁺ ions. The formula for pH is: pH = -log[H⁺]. So, the greater the concentration of H⁺ is, the lower the pH which indicates acidity. On the other hand, the greater the concentration of OH⁻, the greater the pH which indicates basicity. This is also a consequence of the equation: pH + pOH = 14.

SeF6 1. Lewis Structure 2. Perspective drawing 3. Number of atoms bonded to central atom 4. Number of non-bonding electron pairs
Anarel [89]

The answer is- SF_{6} is octahedral in electronic and molecular geometry with 6 Fluorine atoms bonded to central atom S.

Lewis structures are the diagrams in which the valence electrons of the atoms of a compound are arranged around the atoms showing the bonding between the atom and the lone pair of electrons existing in the molecule.

Determine the molecular geometry of SF_{6}.

  • Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory is commonly known as VSEPR theory and it helps to predict the geometry of molecules.
  • According to this theory, electrons are arranged around the central atom of the molecule in such a way that there is minimum electrostatic repulsion between these electrons.
  • Now, calculate the total number of valence electrons in SF_{6}.

Valence\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6}= Valence\ electrons\ in\ S +\ 6(Valence\ electrons\ in\ F)

Valence electrons of S = 6

Valence electrons of F = 7

Thus, the valence electrons in SF_{6} are-

Valence\ number\ of\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6} = (6) + 6(7) = 48\ electrons.

  • The Lewis structure of SF_{6} is - (Image attached).
  • In the structure, the number of atoms bonded to central atom (S) = 6.
  • Number of non-bonding electron pairs on the central atom = 0 (as all the valence electrons are bonded to F).
  • Electronic geometry in case of 6 bond pairs is octahedral.
  • Molecular geometry us also octahedral with bond angles 90°.
  • Central atom is sp3d2 hybridised.
  • SF_{6} is a non-polar molecule.

maw [93]
The sun's energy would be circulated through convection. This is because whenever you see the word "circulate", there is a pretty good chance it has something to do with convection.

How many grams of NaCl (molecular weight = 58.4 g mole-1) would you dissolve in water to make a total volume of 500 mL of soluti
kolezko [41]

Given :

Volume , V = 500 mL .

Molarity , M = 0.5 M .

Molecular mass of NaCl is 58.4\ g/mole .

To Find :

How many grams of NaCl is required .

Solution :

Let , NaCl required is x gram .

Molarity is given by :

M=\dfrac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume (in liters) }}\\\\M=\dfrac{m}{M\times V}\\\\0.5=\dfrac{x}{58.4\times 0.5}\\\\x=0.5^2\times 58.4\ g\\\\x=14.6\ g

Hence , this is the required solution.

Chemicals (and humans) are all about what
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Atoms, and chemical make up

Explanation:

Our bodies and any other terrestrial body are formed with atoms, those same atoms from a chemical make-up that creates items, such as water with 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom is formed. In essence, we all are about atoms and chemical makeup is the instruction on how to build us
