Chlorine exist in Nature as two Chlorine atoms covalently bonded together Why does this occur

Physics

maxonik [38]3 years ago

The two chlorine atoms are said to be joined by a covalent bond. The reason that the two chlorine atoms stick together is that the shared pair of electrons is attracted to the nucleus of both chlorine atoms. Hydrogen atoms only need two electrons in their outer level to reach the noble gas structure of helium.

Answer:

It is one of the 7 diatomics

Explanation:

Br

I

N

Cl

H

O

F

^ these are the 7 diatomic molecules. Atoms of these elements exist as a molecule consisting of two covalently bonded atoms of the same element.

Simply put, for these elements, the diatomic state of the atom is much more stable than the unbound one.

A 1.0-kg block moving to the right at speed 3.0 m/s collides with an identical block also moving to the right at a speed 1.0 m/s
____ [38]

Answer:

Speed of both blocks after collision is 2 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of both blocks, m₁ = m₂ = 1 kg

Velocity of first block, u₁ = 3 m/s

Velocity of other block, u₂ = 1 m/s

Since, both blocks stick after collision. So, it is a case of inelastic collision. The momentum remains conserved while the kinetic energy energy gets reduced after the collision. Let v is the common velocity of both blocks. Using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v

v=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

v=\dfrac{1\ kg\times 3\ m/s+1\ kg\times 1\ m/s}{2\ kg}

v = 2 m/s

Hence, their speed after collision is 2 m/s.

g A lighter ball A with momentum PA=5.0 kg∙m/s in positive x-direction approaches a heavier ball B at rest before the collision.
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

7kgm/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum which states that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of the bodies after collision.

Let P1A and P1B be the initial momentum of the bodies A and B respectively

Let P2A and P2B be the final momentum of the bodies A and B respectively after collision.

Based on the law:

P1A+P2A = P1B + P2B

Given P1A = 5kgm/s

P2A = 0kgm/s(ball B at rest before collision)

P2A = -2.0kgm/s (negative because it moves in the negative x direction)

P2B = ?

Substituting the values in the equation gives;

5+0 = -2+P2B

5+2 = P2B

P2B = 7kgm/s

Why is figure 5 an unhelpful visualization tool for this data set? <br><br> Please help!
Paraphin [41]

Explanation:

Because the temperature and the radiation are not correlated, they're not represented as functions of each other, they're represented as independent variables thus using graph 5 you cannot figure out how one affect another
