Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A non-metal is a substance which tends to gain electrons from another atom in order to acquire noble gas electronic configuration.

For example, elements of group 6A have 6 valence electrons and elements of group 7A have 7 valence electrons.

Hence, in order to know the charge acquired by the elements of these groups we should subtract their group number from 8.

So, elements of group 6A forms (8 - 6) = 2. That is $A^{2-}$ ion is formed in general.

Similarly, elements of group 7A forms (8 - 7) = 1. That is $A^{-1}$ ion is formed in general.

Thus, we can conclude that the ions formed by non-metals in group 6A and 7A have a numerical charge that is found by subtracting the group number from 8.

The concentrations of the products at equilibrium are [pcl3] = 0.180 m and [cl2] = 0.250 m. what is the concentration of the rea

sineoko [7]

We have Kc = 4.2 x 10^-2 (given but missing in the question)
and When the balanced equation for this reaction is:
PCl5(g) ↔ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
so, according to the Kc formula:
Kc = the concentration of products / the concentration of the reactants
so, to get the concentration of the reactants in equilibrium, the concentration of the products / the concentration of the reactants should equal the Kc value which is given in the question (missing in your question).
So by substitution in Kc formula:
Kc = [PCl3]*[Cl2] / [PCl5]
4.2 x 10^-2 = 0.18 * 0.25 /[PCl5]
∴[PCl5] = 0.18*0.25 / 4.2x10^-2 = 1.07
So the concentration of the reactants in equilibrim = 1.07

Give examples of how land resources are used in a city setting

poizon [28]

Answer:

Land resources such as gravel and bedrock are used to construct buildings, roads, and sidewalks. Land is also where city structures—such as buildings, roads, and sidewalks—are constructed. People use land resources such as bedrock and aggregate to construct buildings, roads, and sidewalks.
