Answer:

The correct answer is option d. a polyatomic anion.

Explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

The ending "ate" or "ite" indicates that there is a negative polyatomic ion (polyatomic anion). This means that the termination of the name will indicate the valence number of the element, if the number used is the highest or the lowest.

An example is:

CO-3: is the carbonate ion

SO-4: is the sulfate ion

We conclude that the correct answer is option d. a polyatomic anion.

A 48.0g sample of quartz, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.730·J·g−1°C−1, is dropped into an insulated container containi

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

The equilibrium temperature of the water is 26.7 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample quartz = 48.0 grams

Specific heat capacity of the sample = 0.730 J/g°C

Initial temperature of the sample = 88.6°C

Mass of the water = 300.0 grams

Initial temperature = 25.0°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Step 2: Calculate final temperature

Qlost = -Qgained

Qquartz = - Qwater

Q =m*c*ΔT

Q = m(quartz)*c(quartz)*ΔT(quartz) = -m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)

⇒ mass of the quartz = 48.0 grams

⇒ c(quartz) = the specific heat capacity of quartz = 0.730 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT(quartz) = The change of temperature of the sample = T2 -88.6 °C

⇒ mass of water = 300.0 grams

⇒c(water) = the specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT= (water) = the change in temperature of water = T2 - 25.0°C

48.0 * 0.730 * (T2-88.6) -300.0 * 4.184 *(T2 - 25.0)

35.04(T2-88.6) = -1255.2 (T2-25)

35.04T2 -3104.544 = -1255.2T2 + 31380

1290.24T2 = 34484.544

T2 = 26.7 °C

The equilibrium temperature of the water is 26.7 °C

A geologist measures the height of a mountain.the height is 5.3489km what is the height in meters write your answer in decimal

Xelga [282]

Height of a mountain is 5348.9 meter.

1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meter.

The meter, symbol m, is the primary unit of period in the international system of gadgets, although its prefixed paperwork also are used relatively regularly.

A meter is a general metric unit identical to about three feet 3 inches. This means that a meter is part of the metric gadget of dimension. Guitars, baseball bats, and backyard sticks are examples of items which might be approximately one meter lengthy. Meters also are used to measure distances in races, inclusive of strolling and swimming.

Meter readings tell power suppliers how a lot gasoline and energy you are the use of. In case you do not give your provider meter readings they may have to guess your usage. You typically turn out to be paying too much or too little while this occurs.

What are you suppose to do for number 8?

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

See the images below

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw a dot diagram of an atom, you locate the element in the Periodic Table and figure out how many valence electrons it has. Then you distribute the electrons as dots around the atom,

a. Silicon.

Si is in Group 14, so it has four valence electrons.

b. Xenon

Xenon is in Group 18, so it has eight valence electrons. We group them as four pairs around the xenon atom.

c. Calcium

Calcium is in Group 2, so it has two valence electrons. They are in a single subshell, so we write them as a pair on the calcium atom.

d. Water

Oxygen is in Group 16, so it has six valence electrons. The hydrogen atoms each contribute one electron, so there are eight valence electrons.

Chemists often use a dash to represent a pair of electrons in a bond.

Devices that mix air or oxygen with flammable gasses cannot be used unless approved by

Feliz [49]

Flammable gases are gases that have the tendency to explode (burst into flames) when they come in contact with the appropriate quantities of air, oxygen, or any suitable oxidant.

Devices that mix air or oxygen with flammable gasses cannot be used unless approved by an authorized or approved personnel.

Examples of flammable gases are hydrocarbons such as Propane, Acetylene, e.t.c.

Flammable gases are dangerous to humans and the environment and if they are not handled properly, can cause severe damages and even death.

During the preparation and usage of flammable gases, safety precautions should be properly enforced such as the wearing of appropriate safety gear and goggles.

Devices that mix air or oxygen with flammable gases cannot be used unless approved by an authorized or approved personnel.

Using the solubility graph place the substances in order from most soluble (#1) to least soluble at 40°C. KNO3, NaClO3,KBr, NaCl

mestny [16]

Answer:

NaClO₃ > KBr > KNO₃ > NaCl.

Explanation:

The attached file contains the graph with the solubility curves for the four substances, KNO₃, NaClO₃, KBr, NaCl.

To determine the solubility of each salt at a certain temperature, you read the temperature on the horizontal axis, labeled Temperature (ºC), and move upward up to intersecting the curve of the corresponding salt. Then, move horizontally up to insersceting the vertical axis, labeled Solubility (g/100g of H₂O), to read the solubility.

The higher the reading on the vertical axis, the higher the solubility.

The red vertical line that I added is at a temperature of 40ºC.

The number in blue indicate the order in which the solubility curves are intersected at that temperature:

4: NaCl: this is the lowest solubility
3: KNO₃: this is the second lowest solubility
2: KBr: this is the third lowest solubility
1: NaClO₃: this is the highest solubility.

Thus, the rank, from most soluble to least soluble is:

NaClO₃ > KBr > KNO₃ > NaCl.
