1. How does the period (row) in which an element is located relate to the number of shells that contain electrons?

1 answer:

4 0

1. The period number tells us about the number of shells in an element(for example Na located in third period has three electron shells)

2. Group number tells us the amount of electrons present in the valence shell thus also tells us about the ionic charges they form

3. They all have a stable electronic configuration with complete valence shells hence they also don't form ions.

Answer: 4 molL-1

Explanation:

Detailed solution is shown in the image attached. The number of moles of NaCl is first obtained. Since the molarity must be in units of molL-1, the volume is divided by 1000 and the formula stated in the solution is applied and the answer is given to one significant figure.

How many copper atoms are in 70g of copper

Elanso [62]

Answer:

$n = 6.634\times 10^{23}\,atoms$

Explanation:

The total amount of atoms is found by multiplying Avogradro's Number and the number of moles:

$n = \left(6.022\times 10^{23}\,\frac{atoms}{mol} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{70\,g}{63.546\,\frac{g}{mol} } \right)$

$n = 6.634\times 10^{23}\,atoms$

In a food chain, energy is passed through one link to another. When a herbivore eats only a certain fraction of the energy, (which comes from the food) it becomes new body mass; the rest of the energy is lost as waste or used up by the herbivore in order to carry out its life processes (ex. movement, digestion, reproduction). It doesn’t necessarily threaten the plants survival, there’s also a benefit. When a animals poops out the fruit (defecate) in another area those seeds get carried to new places with the help of a dab of fertilizer and a little bit of moisture. They also help supply nutrients when they die and decompose.
