Answer: -

(a) 1.54 x 10² pm

(b) 1.3 x 10⁶ is the number of carbon atoms could be aligned side by side in a straight line across the width of 0.2 mm.

Explanation: -

1 å = 10² pm

Diameter of a carbon atom = 1.54 å = 1.54 x 10² pm

1 mm = 10⁹ pm

Total distance = 0.2 mm = 0.2 x 10⁹ pm

Number of carbon atoms could be aligned side by side in a straight line across the width = Total distance / Diameter of a carbon atom

= \frac{0.2 x 109 pm}{1.54 x 102 pm}

= 1.3 x 10⁶

Pls assist if you can.<br>Reasons why hydrogen was chosen as a standard reference to other elements
MrMuchimi

Answer:

See below  

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Hydrogen either reacts with or is formed by reactions with many other elements, so chemists could use it directly to determine their relative masses.
  • Hydrogen has the smallest atomic mass, so it was convenient to give H a relative atomic mass of 1 and assign those of other elements as multiples of this number.

The O = 16 scale became the standard in 1903 and carbon-12 was chosen in 1961.

Which waves can travel through empty space?
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

light waves a

Explanation:

because there's all kinds of different light in space if you think about it like the bright stars or the bright moon it's kind of like light it just makes sense when it's traveling for space water waves obviously it's not possible that travels through the air or like on a beach sound waves you can't really cure much in space and mechanical waves is pretty much the action of an object or something like that kind of it's pretty much happens on Earth but light waves happen for like asteroids or shooting stars a comments it happens all the time for space so it makes just perfect sense

Compared to CH4,NH3 has:
vitfil [10]

a) NH₃ molecules have stronger intermolecular attractions than CH₄ molecules.

Explanation:

Ammonia molecules have stronger intermolecular attractions compared to methane.

Ammonia molecules have london dispersion forces and hydrogen bonds between their molecules.

Methane molecules have only london dispersion forces in their structure.

  • hydrogen bonds are very strong attractive forces between molecules in which the hydrogen of a molecule is attracted by a more electronegative atom of another usually oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.
  • London dispersion forces are weak forces of attraction between heteronuclear atoms.
