<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is C. 2.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given the number '0.0020' and we are to indicate the number of significant figures in the given measured number.
According to the rules of significant figures, numbers that are non-zero, zeros between any two significant numbers and the ending zeros in the decimal position are categorized as significant figures.
Since there is one non-zero number and one ending zero in the decimal position, therefore 0.0020 has 2 significant figures.
Answer:
It's because removal of electron from an atom, reduces the size of an atom.
Explanation:
When an electron is removed from an atom, it becomes an ion and in this case it will become a postive ion.
When an electron is removed from an atom, the charge balance of an atom is disturbed and positive charge increases in comparison to the negative charge. This results in increase nuclear (positive) charge which exerts greater attraction on the remaining electrons and as a result the remaining electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus and in this way the atomic size is decreased. Due to this increased nuclear attraction and reduced atomic size, it bcomes difficult to remove more electeon from the positively charged ion of reduced size. This is the reason that each successive ionization of electron requires a greater amount of energy.
The ionization energy has inverse relation with the size or radius of an atom. This also justifies the reason that why each successive ionization of an electron requires greater amount of energy.
D because Carbon and Oxygen form covalent compounds. I wasn't the greatest at chem., but I'm pretty sure this is correct :D let me know if I gave you the right answer.
Answer:
moles = 36/180 = 0.2 moles
molarity = 0.2/2 = 0.1 mol/dm3
True. Water acts as a solvent as the solute dissolves into water.
