If aluminum loses 3 electrons how do you write the ion

1 answer:

7 0

Since it has lost 3 electrons that means it now has excess protons of 3 protons.

So it is positive. You write it as:

Al³+.

The plus sign should be on the same line with the 3.

I need help with 1,2,3, and 4

Schach [20]

Answer:

Problem 1: 1.85atm

Problem 2: 110mL

Problem 3: 290 mL

Problem 4: 1.14 atm

Explanation:

Problem 1

1. Data

a) P₁ = 3.25atm

b) V₁ = 755mL

c) P₂ = ?

d) V₂ = 1325 mL

r) T = 65ºC

2. Formula

Since the temeperature is constant you can use Boyle's law for idial gases:

$PV=constant\\\\P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

3. Solution

Solve, substitute and compute:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\P_2=P_1V_1/V_2$

$P_2=3.25atm\times755mL/1325mL=1.85atm$

Problem 2

1. Data

a) V₁ = 125 mL

b) P₁ = 548mmHg

c) P₁ = 625mmHg

d) V₂ = ?

2. Formula

You assume that the temperature does not change, and then can use Boyl'es law again.

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

3. Solution

This time, solve for V₂:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\V_2=P_1V_1/P_2$

Substitute and compute:

$V_2=548mmHg\times 125mL/625mmHg=109.6mL$

You must round to 3 significant figures:

$V_2=110mL$

Problem 3

1. Data

a) V₁ = 285mL

b) T₁ = 25ºC

c) V₂ = ?

d) T₂ = 35ºC

2. Formula

At constant pressure, Charle's law states that volume and temperature are inversely related:

$V/T=constant\\\\\\\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}$

The temperatures must be in absolute scale.

3. Solution

a) Convert the temperatures to kelvins:

T₁ = 25 + 273.15K = 298.15K

T₂ = 35 + 273.15K = 308.15K

b) Substitute in the formula, solve for V₂, and compute:

$\dfrac{V_1}{T_1`}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}\\\\\\\\\dfrac{285mL}{298.15K}=\dfrac{V_2}{308.15K}\\\\\\V_2=308.15K\times285mL/298.15K=294.6ml$

You must round to two significant figures: 290 ml

Problem 4

1. Data

a) P = 865mmHg

b) Convert to atm

2. Formula

You must use a conversion factor.

1 atm = 760 mmHg

Divide both sides by 760 mmHg

$\dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}=\dfrac{760mmHg}{760mmHg}\\\\\\1=\dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}$

3. Solution

Multiply 865 mmHg by the conversion factor:

$865mmHg\times \dfrac{1atm}{760mmHg}=1.14atm\leftarrow answer$

Which causes an air conditioner to turn on

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

C.)house temperature increases cause the bimetallic coil to expand

Explanation:

A bimetallic strip is used in an air conditioner as a regulator. It is made up of two metals that behaves differently to a change in temperature.

To turn on the air conditoner, the circuit must be complete. When the temperature is high in a room, bimetallic strip responds by expanding and bending to complete the circuit. This puts on the air conditioner and the house begins to cool through exchange of warm and cold air.

When the temperature is too cold, the strip contracts and straightens. This process disconnects the circuit and the air conditioning system ceases to work.

Does data from mass spectrometry indicate that modern scientists have made modifications to Dalton''s model? Justify.

Gelneren [198K]

John Dalton was a scientist who proposed that all matter consists of atoms. At this stage, no one had yet discovered neutrons and the nucleus. As a result, Dalton's model consisted of a single atom i.e. the atom was the smallest object.
A mass spectrometer is an instrument that is able to see what is inside an atom. Scientists have been able to prove that the item is not the smallest object in the world. Atoms are made up of smaller objects called protons, neutrons and electrons.
We can, therefore, safely conclude that data from mass spectrometry has helped modern scientists to make modifications to Dalton's model.
