1) False

An anion is a negative ion. When an atom loses valence electrons (i.e. loses negative charge) it becomes a positive ion (called cation, not anion).

2)  True

Non metals are at the right side of the periodic table. Those elements tipically have more than four valence electrons (except C which has 4 valence electrons). Then, by gaining some electrons (the number depends on the number of valence electrons that the non metal has),  they can complete the 8 valence electrons configuration of the nobles gases.

A major component of gasoline is octane, C8H18. When octane is burned in air, it chemically reacts with oxygen gas (O2) to produ
ddd [48]

Answer:

m_{CO_2}=2.8gCO_2

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the combustion of octane is chemically expressed by:

C_8H_{18}+\frac{25}{2} O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+9H_2O

In such a way, due to the 25/2:8 molar ratio between oxygen and carbon dioxide, we can compute the yielded grams of carbon dioxide (molar mass 44 g/mol) as shown below:

m_{CO_2}=3.2gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32gO_2} *\frac{8molCO_2}{\frac{25}{2}molO_2 } *\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2}\\ \\m_{CO_2}=2.8gCO_2

Best regards.

If a substance is covalent, then it likely will
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer : If a substance is covalent, then it is likely to melt easily and fast, it may be composed of two or more non-metals which share a covalent bonding between them and it will not conduct electricity.

It is seen that covalent substances are made up of two or more non-metals which share a covalent bond between them. They are found to melt easily and when dissolved in water they are seen to be insoluble. They are also not good conductors of electricity as there is no free electron available to conduct electricity.

A sample of argon gas is at a pressure of 1.725x10^4 kPa and a temperature of 24°C in a rigid 20 L tank. How many moles of argon
Paraphin [41]
To find how many moles of the gas you can use ideal gas formula. Remember to change the temperature unit to Kelvin. Since the pressure using kpa, the constant used would be 8.314 kpa*L  / mol*K
PV=nRT
n= PV/RT
n= 17,250 kpa * 20  /   8.314 * (24+273.15)K
n=139.64moles

Water difference between glacier and geyser
Gekata [30.6K]
Glaciers are found in areas where the net accumulation of snow exceeds the melt, therefore they are usually found in areas of high elevation, cold temperatures, and high precipitation.

Geysers are found in areas of shallow crust with high heat flow, such as hot spots.
