A child pushes a desk with a force of 15 N to the right. The desk accelerates to the right. Which of the following statements co
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: number 1

Explanation:

Third law of Newton: says that for every action ,there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, if the child is pushing an object to the right, it will recipe the same amount of force that he is exerting to the object but in opposite direction.

Number 2 and 3 are incorrect because, because the third law of Newton says "an equal and opposite reaction", not slightly more or less.

Number 4 is wrong, it is not in agreement with Newton's third law of motion.

Chloroform (CHCl3), an important solvent, is produced by a reaction between methane and chlorine. CH4(g) + 3 Cl2(g) CHCl3(g) + 3
PIT_PIT [208]
CH₄(g) + 3 Cl₂(g) → CHCl₃(g) + 3 HCl(g)
From the equation we notice that 1 mole of methane produces 1 mole of chloroform:
16 g Methane → 119.38 g Chloroform
?   g Methane → 37.5 g Chloroform
by cross multiplication:
= (16 * 37.5) / 119.38 = 5.0 g methane

A scientist is researching the solar system. How can the scientist best add to existing empirical evidence about the solar syste
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. The scientist can make and record observations

Explanation:

Empirical evidence are evidences obtained by direct observation, sensual perception or direct measurement. It is the processed and useful data gathered and stored in a material form or documented to provide record of the measurement.

With the aid of empirical evidence, it is possible for researchers to find answers to question regarding topics that can vastly impact every day life.

With empirical evidence, it is possible to determine the effects of treatment in a study such as the invention of working car safety devices such as seat belts and airbags.

Which statements are true concerning elements in the same group of the periodic table? Select all that apply.
Tatiana [17]

The statements A and F are true concerning elements in the same group of the periodic table.  

To select all that apply, we need to evaluate each statement.

A. They have similar periodic properties.  

This statement is true. All the elements in the same group will have similar chemical and physical properties due to the electron configuration of their outer shell. For example, the alkali metals group (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, and Fr), has a valence electron configuration of s¹ (in the outer shell), which gives them the tendency to react vigorously with water, as well as other properties.      

B. They are all metals or nonmetals, but not both.

This is false. If we take a look at the p-block of the periodic table, we can see that the <u>groups</u> in this block are conformed by nonmetals, metals, and metalloids. For example, the icosagens group is formed by metalloids (B) and metals (Al, Ga, In, Tl).          

 

C. They are either all solids or all liquids or all gases.

This is false. In some groups, all the elements are solids (alkaline earth metals) or gases (group of noble gases), but in others, the groups are conformed by gases with solids (pnictogens group) or by gases with liquids (halogens group).  

   

D. They have the same number of shells of electrons.

This is false. In a group, the number of shells <u>increases from top to bottom</u> in the periodic table. For example, the electron configuration of the elements in the alkali metals is:        

  • H: 1s¹      
  • Li: [He]2s¹
  • Na: [Ne]3s¹
  • K: [Ar]4s¹
  • Rb: [Kr]5s¹
  • Cs:  [Xe]6s¹
  • Fr: [Rn]7s¹

We can see that hydrogen has 1 shell and Cs has 6 shells.  

E. They have the same number of inner core electrons.

This is false. As we said at point D, the number of shells increases from top to bottom in a group, so the number of inner core electrons also increases in this order. For example, in the alkaline earth metals group, the electron configuration of the elements is:  

  • Be: [He]2s²
  • Mg: [Ne]3s²
  • Ca: [Ar]4s²
  • Sr: [Kr]5s²
  • Ba: [Xe]6s²
  • Ra: [Rn]7s²

As we can see, the number of inner shells increases from Be ([He]) to Ra ([Rn]).    

F. They have the same outer shell electron configuration.

This is true. As we said at point A, the elements in the same group will have the same electron configuration of the outer shell (valence electron configuration). At points D and E, we can see that the valence electron configuration is the same for all the elements in the groups.    

Therefore, statements A and F are true.
