The Nitrogen (N) will have the greatest attraction for the chlorine electrons.

Answer: A) N

Explanation

The tendency or the ability to attract electrons is termed as electronegativity.

The electronegativity tend to increase from left to right in the periods and bottom to top in the groups of the periodic table. So it is known that the halogen group consists of the most electronegative elements.

Though chlorine has high electronegativity of 3.16, the electrons of chlorine can be attracted by other electronegative elements provided that their electronegativity should be in the range of the electronegativity of Cl.

So among the elements given, Nitrogen (N) has an electronegativity of 3.04, Phosphor (P) has an electronegativity of 2.19 and Arsenide electronegativity is 2.18.

Thus it can be seen that the electronegativity is maximum for Nitrogen among the three elements so it should have the greatest tendency to attract Cl electrons.

What is the volume in (a) liters and (b) cubic yards of a room that is 10. meters wide by 15 meters long and 8.0 ft high?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

V = 364500 L, 476.748 yard³

Explanation:

Given that,

The dimensions of a room are 10 meters wide by 15 meters long and 8.0 ft high.

l = 10 m, b = 15 m, h = 8 ft = 2.43 m

The volume of the room is :

V = lbh

So,

V = 10×15×2.43

V = 364.5 m³

As 1 m³ = 1000 L

364.5 m³ = 364500 L

Also, 1 m³ = 1.30795 yard³

364.5 m³ = 476.748 yard³

Hence, this is the required solution.

Is it true or false a contour line indicates that all points on that line have equal elevation?
Rom4ik [11]
True. Each contour line on a topographic map represent a certain elevation; the closer they are, the steeper the surface is. All points on a contour line are the same elevation.

kicyunya [14]

Answer: 1) C; 2)D; 3)B; 4)B; 5) A

Explanation:Interpreting the following Arterial Blood gases, we have

1. pH 7.33 PaCO2 60 HCO3  34----Respiratory acidosis with partial compensation----C

2. pH 7.48 PaCO2 42 HCO3 30------. Metabolic alkalosis without compensation----D

3. pH 7.38 PaCO2 38 HCO3 24 ----- Normal---B

4. pH 7.21 PaCO2 60 HCO3 24------ Respiratory acidosis without compensation-----B

5. pH 7.48 PaCO2 28 HCO3 20 ----Respiratory alkalosis with partial compensation

The Arterial blood gas interpretation  from analysis shows  the pH and the partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the arterial blood of an individual which can detect how well the lungs are functioning thereby making a physician make a diagnosis, estimate  the severity of a condition and profer treatment.
