To answer this problem, we need to count the electrons in the given configuration. The complete configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6. There are 2+2+6+2+6 equal to 18 electrons. We find next the element with an atomic number of 18. That element is noble gas argon.
Answer: d. have the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron as their structural unit.
Explanation:
Silicates are anions that have both Oxygen and Silicon as the basis of their structure. These two form a tetrahedron type structure that enable them to be useful for a whole lot of things.
Silicates are very abundant on Earth as they comprise around 95% of the Earth's crust as well as the upper mantle which explains why they are mostly found in igneous rocks.
Answer:
9.25
Explanation:
Let first find the moles of
and 
number of moles of
= 0.40 mol/L × 200 × 10⁻³L
= 0.08 mole
number of moles of
= 0.80 mol/L × 50 × 10⁻³L
= 0.04 mole
The equation for the reaction is expressed as:

The ICE Table is shown below as follows:

Initial (M) 0.08 0.04 0
Change (M) - 0.04 -0.04 + 0.04
Equilibrium (M) 0.04 0 0.04







for buffer solutions
since they are in the same solution


Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles. Hope this helped!
Answer:
Explanation:
Given the details, we can say that
Pure methanol is a volatile solvent as the vapour pressure has a high value. This means that methanol - methanol intermolecular forces are weak in comparisson to water - water forces. When having about 30% of water in a methanol mixture, the mixture Pv decreased, showing that it is not a volatile mixture, so then there are strong intermolecular interactions between methanol - water, part of it due to the hydrogen bonds.
