Element X reacts to form XO. It has the second smallest radius of its group. What is element X?

Chemistry
1 answer:
andriy [413]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Li

Explanation:

Is the element of the first group and is the second smallest of its group. Even Magnesium is in the same situation, but if you compare the atomic radius of lithium and magnesium, the first one is smaller.

Barium definitely is incorrect because is the one that has the biggest radius of its group.

Beryllium is the first of its group so it can not fit the description.

Scientists recently discovered that firing low-energy particles at potatoes keeps the potatoes
vodomira [7]

Answer:

By allowing the potatoes to be stored longer so they can be sold during winter months.

Explanation:

Since low energy particles are fired at the potatoes to prevent them from developing unwanted sprouts, it means that it prevents sprouts from growing on the potatoes.

Now, winter is wet period which encourages more growth of the sprouts. Thus, the way this development will affect the industry is that the potatoes will be stored for longer period and then sold in the winter.

When 50.0 mL of 1.00 M HCl(aq) and 50.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH(aq) , both at 22.0 °C, are added to a coffee cup calorimeter, the temp
Igoryamba

Answer:

The heat produced by this reaction is 2887J

Explanation:

The reaction of HCl with NaOH occurs as follows:

HCl + NaOH → H2O + NaCl + ΔH

<em>Where ΔH is released heat due the reaction</em>

<em />

The equation of a coffee cup calorimeter is:

Q = C*m*ΔT

<em>Where Q is heat produced, </em>

<em>C is specific heat of the solution (4.18J/g°C), </em>

<em>m is mass of the solution (50mL + 50mL = 100mL = 100g -Because density is 1g/mL) </em>

<em>and ΔT is change in temperature (28.9°C - 22.0°C = 6.9°C)</em>

<em />

Replacing:

Q = 4.184J/g°C*100g*6.9°C

Q = 2887J

The heat produced by this reaction is 2887J

<em />

Which of the following reactions show a decrease in entropy? a. CaO(s) + H2O(l) Ca(OH)2 (s)
Mariulka [41]
The correct answer is <span>a. CaO(s) + H2O(l) Ca(OH)2 (s)
</span><span>Decreasing in entropy means that you have to get a solid from the liquid
</span>therefore : <span>CaO(s) + H2O(l) Ca(OH)2 (s)
This formula will make it absolutely clear 
</span>(g) -\ \textgreater \ (l) -\ \textgreater \ (s) more molecules -\ \textgreater \  less molecules&#10;

What two things must occur in order for a light Ray to refract when it strikes the boundary of a different medium?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

When light passes from one transparent medium to another, the rays are bent toward the surface normal if the speed of light is smaller in the second medium than in the first. The rays are bent away from this normal if the speed of light in the second medium is greater than in the first.

Describe how spead, velocity and<br> brcoloration are related.
Flura [38]

Answer:

Speed, being a scalar quantity, is the rate at which an object covers distance. The average speed is the distance (a scalar quantity) per time ratio. On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes.
