Answer: antimony has more metallic character than arsenic.


Justification:


1) Both arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb) are in the same group, 15, of the periodic table (they both have 5 valence electrons).


2) There is a clear trend in the periodic table about the metallic character in a group: metallic character increases down the group.


The reason of this is that the ionization energies decrease as the electrons are further away from the nucleus (due to the shielding effect of more electrons in between the nucleus and the valence electrons).


3) Since antimomy is in the period (row) 5 and arsenic is in the period 4, you can conclude that antimony (being below arsenic) has more metallic character than arsenic.

If a device uses 280 watts of power a day, about how many kilowatt-hours will it use in 30 days?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:C

Explanation:

Power=280watts=280/1000 kilowatts

Power=0.28 kilowatts

Device use 0.28 kilowatts in 1 day

1day=24hours

Device use 0.28 kilowatts in 24hours

30days=30 x 24=720 hours

For 720 hours=(0.28x720) ➗ 24

For 720 hours=201.6 ➗ 24

For 720 hours=8.4

What is air pressure?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules

Explanation:

Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.

The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm

1 atm = 101325 Pa

As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.

Cart 1 of mass m is traveling with speed 2vo in the +x-direction when it has an elastic collision with cart 2 of
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum conservation

m2v_0+2mv_0=mv_1+2mv_2 \quad (1/m) \quad 4v_0=v_1+2v_2\\

Kinetic energy conservation

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}m(2v_0)^2+\frac{1}{2}2mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}2mv_2^2 \quad (1/m) \quad 6v_0^2=v_1^2+2v_2^2
