Answer:
"Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of a number of gases that are transparent to the visible light falling on the Earth from the Sun, but absorb the infra-red radiation (heat) emitted by the warm surface of the Earth, preventing its loss into space. During the geological history of the Earth the level of atmospheric CO2 has varied considerably and this has had an impact on the global temperature. A significant amount of this atmospheric carbon was sequestered or (removed from the atmosphere) and turned into inert material (coal, and oil) typically 300-360 Million years ago. All of the global ecosystems and species have adapted to a lower level of atmospheric CO2 and critically, human civilisation has also grown since that period. Since the industrial revolution humans have been burning sequestered CO2 in the form of coal, oil, and natural gas which has the result of releasing energy but also releases CO2 back into the atmosphere".
Electrons in an atom can be classified as core electrons and valence electrons. Valence electrons are those electrons which are present in valence shell and participates in bond formation. While, Core electrons are all remaining electrons which are not present in valence shell, hence not take part in bonding.
Atomic number of Selenium (Se) is 34 hence it has 34 electrons with following electronic configuration;
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁴
From electronic configuration it is found that the valence shell is 4, and the number of electrons present in valence shell are 6. So,
Core Electrons = Total Electrons - Valence Electrons
Core Electrons = 34 - 6
Core Electrons = 28
Result:
There are 28 core electrons in Selenium.
Single displacement and combustion reactions are ALWAYS redox.
Answer: The main difference between silicate minerals and nonsilicate minerals is that silicate minerals are composed of silicate groups whereas Nonsilicate minerals have no silicate groups.
Explanation:
Answer:
1x10^–9 M
Explanation:
From the question given,
Concentration of hydronium ion, [H3O+] = 1x10^-5 M.
Concentration of Hydroxide ion, [OH-] =..?
The concentration of the hydroxide ion, [OH-] can be obtained as follow:
[H3O+] x [OH-] = 1x10^–14
1x10^-5 M x [OH-] = 1x10^–14
Divide both side by 1x10^-5
[OH-] = 1x10^–14 / 1x10^-5
[OH-] = 1x10^–9 M
