Answer: electronegativity

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself.  

The size of an atom decreases as we move across the period because the electrons get added to the same shell and the nuclear charge keeps on increasing. Thus the electrons get more tightly held by the nucleus.

As, the size of an element decreases, the valence electrons come near to the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons increases and thus the electronegativity increases.

The period of a sound wave coming from an instrument is 0. 002 seconds. What is the frequency of the sound? Hz.
Pie

The period is the time taken by the wave to complete an oscillation. The frequency of the given sound is 500 Hz.

<h2>Period:</h2>

It is the time taken by the wave to complete an oscillation. The frequency is inversely proportional to the time:

f = \dfrac 1T

Where,

f- frequency

T - period = 0.002 s

Put the value in the equation,

f = \dfrac 1{0.002}\\\\f = 500\rm \  Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the given sound is 500 Hz.

What is the benefit of developing the atomic mass unit as a standard unit of mass?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The atomic mass unit is 1/12 of an atom of carbon 12, and is a very small amount to represent in kilograms:

1m_{u}=1.66054x10^{-27}kg

m_{u} is atomic mass unit.

This is why the benefits of the atomic mass unit is that it makes the representation of atomic masses easier in terms of the simplicity of the numbers that are used to represent the masses. Also using the atomic mass unit it is easier to compare the masses of different atoms, These numbers would be very small and would require negative powers of 10 to represent them, so it is more convenient to use the atomic mass unit.

An observation which is descriptive is considered
oksano4ka [1.4K]
A descriptive observation may very well be a mixture of both quantitative and qualitative as it can utilize elements of both types. Qualitative deals with the kinds of observations that cannot be measured in numerical form. Quantitative data is just that.

I have a hot air balloon that has 18.0 g helium gas inside of it. if the pressure is 2.00 atm and the temperature is 297k, what
Anastaziya [24]

M = molar mass of the helium gas = 4.0 g/mol

m = mass of the gas given = 18.0 g

n = number of moles of the gas

number of moles of the gas is given as

n = m/M

n = 18.0/4.0

n = 4.5 moles

P = pressure = 2.00 atm = 2.00 x 101325 Pa = 202650 Pa

V = Volume of balloon = ?

T = temperature = 297 K

R = universal gas constant = 8.314

Using the ideal gas equation

P V = n R T

(202650) V = (4.5) (8.314) (297)

V = 0.055 m³
