Answer:
Strontium
Explanation:
The atomic number of strontium is 38.
It has 38 electrons.
It is alkaline earth metal. It has two valance electrons.
Strontium loses its two electrons and form cation with +2 charge.
Electronic configuration;
Sr₃₈ = [Kr] 5s²
The valance electrons present in 5s are lost by strontium atom and form Sr⁺² cation.
it is yellowish-white metal.
It is highly reactive.
It form salt with halogens.e.g
Sr + Br₂ → SrBr₂
IT react with oxygen and form oxide.
2Sr + O₂ → 2SrO
this oxide form hydroxide when react with water,
SrO + H₂O → Sr(OH)₂
With nitrogen it produced nitride,
3Sr + N₂ → Sr₃N₂
With acid like HCl,
Sr + 2HCl → SrCl₂ + H₂
Answer: On losing 6 moles of water, cobalt chloride forms unstable violet-coloured ions, before generating its stable blue-coloured anhydrous form.
Explanation:
The hydrated cobalt chloride loses its 6 water of crystallization, then dissociates into ions: cobalt ions and chlorine ions that appear violet, and quickly combined to form the stable anhydrous Cobalt chloride with blue colour.
A decomposition reaction should look like
A ------> B +C+...
It has to have only one reactant and several products.
2 NO2 ⟶ 2 O2 + N2
<u>We are given:</u>
The force applied on the poor hamster (F) = 12 N
Acceleration of the poor Hamster (a) = 8 m/s²
<u>Solving for the mass of the Poor Hamster:</u>
From newton's second equation of motion, we know that:
F = ma
<em>replacing the given values</em>
12 = 8 * m
m = 12/8 kg
m = 3/2 kg
The poor Hamster weighs 3/2 kg
