Chemistry
2 answers:
gladu [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:The correct answer is option:

'A resource that cannot be replenished in a short period of time'.

Explanation:

Renewable resources: Resources which are capable of restoring themselves overtime through natural process.They never get exhausted completely.For example: bio mass energy, solar energy etc.

Non-Renewable resources: Resources that cannot be replenished overtime through natural process.These are the resources which are used in wise manner so that to prevent their exhaustion. For example: coal, petroleum etc.

Hence, from the given the options the correct answer is :

'A resource that cannot be replenished in a short period of time'.

Why is a relatively large amount of energy required to turn liquid water into water vapor?
bagirrra123 [75]
Water can exist in three states.

1) Solid State: Called Ice.

2) Liquid State: Called Liquid Water.

3) Gas State: Called Steam.

Remember:
                  The physical states of a matter depends upon the interactions between the particles of that substance. The interactions are very strong in solid state, strong in liquid state and very weak or negligible in gas state. 
                  If you want to change the state from solid to liquid, or from liquid to gas you will have to provide energy in order to break the interactions between the molecules. Stronger the interactions, the more is energy required to break the interactions.
                  Water need more energy to convert from liquid to gas phase because hydrogen bond interactions are present among the molecules of water. And the hydrogen bonds are strong enough. Hence in order to break these interactions high energy is required.

The electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is?
sasho [114]

The electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is francium.

<h3>What is ionization energy? </h3>

Ionization energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to remove the most loosely electron present in outermost shell.

<h3>Ionization energy across period</h3>

Ionization energy increase as we move from left to right in the period. This can be explained as when we move from left to right along period new electron is added to the same shell which increase the nuclear charge. Hence results int he decrease in size. Due to this decrease in size more energy is required to remove electron from outermost shell.

<h3>Ionization energy along group</h3>

Ionization energy decrease as we move from top to bottom along group. This can be explained as we move from top to bottom new electron is added to new shell. Due to addition of new shell the size of atom increases which results in the decrease in the nuclear charge. Due to this less amount of energy is needed to remove an electron.

Thus, we concluded that the electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is francium.

When sugar is dissolved in hot tea, physical changes occur. Write two physical properties of sugar
kompoz [17]

Answer:

When you mix the sugar into the tea and stir, it dissolves so you can't see it. Also when you stir the sugar into the tea the taste changes and it turns sweeter.

Calcium chloride reacts with sodium hydroxide to form solid calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2. The balanced net ionic equation is
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Ca²⁺ + 2 OH⁻ → Ca(OH)₂(s)

Explanation:

In chemistry, the net ionic equation is a way to write a chemical reaction whereas you write only the ions that are involved in the reaction.

When calcium chloride, CaCl₂ reacts with sodium hydroxide, NaOH to produce Ca(OH)₂ the only ions involved in the reaction are Ca²⁺ and OH⁻, thus, the balanced net ionic equation is:

<em>Ca²⁺ + 2 OH⁻ → Ca(OH)₂(s)</em>

<em>Cl⁻ and Na⁺ are not involved in the reaction and you don't have to write them.</em>
