Which pair of elements would most likely have a similar arrangement of outer

Chemistry
1 answer:
UNO [17]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Boron and Aluminum

Explanation:

If you write the electron configuration for boron and aluminum, you get:

1s^22s^22p^1 for boron and 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^1 for aluminum. Both have 3 valance electrons and has 2 electrons in a s-orbital and 1 in a p-orbital. These valance electron similarities are based on the column/group the elements are. Therefore, Boron and Aluminum have similar chemical behaviours and similar arrangement of outer/valance electrons.

Given the data you collected for the volume of water displaced by 25.000 g of aluminum, what is the density of aluminum?
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

C. 2.70 g/mL

Explanation:

Density is the ratio between the mass of a substance and the volume it occupies. Based on Archimedes' volume, the displaced volume of the aluminium is the volume it occupies. To solve this question we must find the difference in volume between initial volume of water = 30mL and final volume of water + aluminium = 39.26mL. This difference is the volume of the aluminium. With its mass we can find density:

39.26mL - 30mL = 9.26mL

Density = 25.00g / 9.26mL =

2.70g/mL

Right answer is:

<h3>C. 2.70 g/mL </h3>

Jordan is doing a science fair project on the effect of music on the growth of tomatoes. He has two tomatoe plants,plant A and p
krek1111 [17]
The control group is the type of tomato the plants are.
The independent variable is the type of music played.
The dependent variable is Plant A and B's growth.
His conclusion should be that music does not affect the growth of tomatoes.
He should make sure both plants were getting the same amount of water, soil, light, seed, and fertilizer so that can't affect the tomatoes in any way.

A rock is believed to have been formed 1.25 billion years ago, as calculated by using potassium-40 dating. If the half-life of p
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

50 % of the original amount of potassium 40 will be left after one half life or 1.25 billion years

Explanation:

To solve the question we note that the half life is the time for half of the quantity of  substance that undergoes radioactive decay to  disintegrate, thus

we have

half life of potassium 40 K₄₀ = 1.25 billion years

To support the believe tht the rock was formed 1.25 billion years ago we have

N_{(t)} =N_{(0)} (\frac{1}{2}) ^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2} } } }

After 1.25 billion years we have

N_{(t)} =N_{(0)} (\frac{1}{2}) ^{\frac{1.25billion}{1.25 billion}  } } }  = N_{(t)} =N_{(0)} (\frac{1}{2}) ^{1 } } } =0.5 of N_{(0)} will be left or 50 % of the original amount of potassium 40 will be left
