Answer:
1s2 2s2 2p6
Explanation:
The nitride ion(N^3-) is formed when nitrogen gains three electrons. Nitrogen possesses seven electrons in its orbitals and ordinarily has the electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p3. However,being in group 15, nitrogen can accept three electrons to form the nitride ion and complete its octet of electrons. When this happens, three electrons are added to the nitrogen atom and the electronic configuration is now the same as that of Neon, its closest noble gas which is 1s2 2s2 2p6. Hence the answer given above.
Elements can accept or donate electrons in order to complete their octet structure in accordance to the octet rule which states that atoms and ions must possess eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to attain chemical stability. The reason for ion formation and chemical reaction is in order for species to attain the octet structure.
A change of 1 Kelvin is exactly the same as a change of 1 degree Celsius.
Answer: yes true
Explanation: 1. Toward the middle of a river, water tends to flow fastest; toward the margins of the river it tends to flow slowest. 2. In a meandering river, water will tend to flow fastest along the outside bend of a meander, and slowest on the inside bend.
Answer: The force on the firefly
The unfortunate firefly hitting the bus does not change the velocity of the bus very much. Technically there is a change, but it's so very small and miniscule that it barely registers. To any casual observer not paying very close attention, they don't notice anything at all. So effectively the force on the firefly is a lot greater since the firefly got the worst end of the deal.
So in short, we look at the velocity of each object and see which velocity changed the most. In this case, the firefly's velocity changed from whatever speed it was flying to 0 when it stops flying all together. That's why the force is greater on the bug.
