Chemistry

Answer:

Ag

Explanation:

To determine which element will displace hydrogen from a dilute acid, we need to make reference to the activity series or the electrochemical series. The activity series is a list of metallic ions according to their electropositivity.

This means elements are ranked here based on how electrically positive they are. Hence, an element above another element is relatively more electropositive than the one under it. For example calcium is less electropositive compared to sodium as calcium is found under sodium in the list.

Now, for an element to displace hydrogen, it means the particular element is more electropositive than hydrogen on the activity series. All the elements in the options are in a greater position relative to hydrogen on the activity series except silver. This means it cannot displace hydrogen from a dilute mineral acid

Why do covalent bonds not involve the transfer of electrons
zhannawk [14.2K]
Covalent bonds do not involve electron transfer because in covalent bonds, the electrons are shared between the atoms to form the molecule rather than being transferred to form ions as it is in the case of ionic bonds.<span />

Calculate the mass of a body<br>Whose volume is<br>Is 2cm3 and<br> density is 520cm3​
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>1040g</h2>

Explanation:

Density = mass / volume

mass = density × volume

volume = 2cm³

density = 520g/cm³

mass = 2 × 520

= 1040g

Hope this helps you

In general, what is the effect of increased temperature on the solubility of a gas?
Alecsey [184]
The physical explanation is that increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules. Hence, their random motion breaks more intermolecular bonds and the gas is less dissolved in the solvent. In contrast, solid solutes in water have increased solubility with increased temperatures.

The Earth is always _______ as it revolves around the sun.
EastWind [94]

Answer

Rotating

Explanation:

The Earth is always being pulled towards the Sun by gravity.

The Earth is not moving fast enough to "escape" the Sun's gravity and leave the solar system, but it is going too fast to be pulled into the Sun. Therefore, it keeps going around and around( roating)- orbiting the Sun.
