Answer:
Argon
Explanation:
Argon is a noble gas and has a full outer shell of electrons so it doesn't need to form bonds with other atoms as it is stable
Answer:
8 electrons
Explanation:
Phosphorous is the element of group 15 and third period. The atomic number of chlorine is 15 and the symbol of the element is P.
The electronic configuration of the element phosphorus is:-
Thus, from the electronic configuration shown above,
In n = 2, the total number of electrons are 8 which are present in
Answer:
The correct matching of the air mass and the letters in the word bank are given as follows;
1. Warm and humid ↔ D
2. Extremely cold and dry ↔ B
3. Cold and dry ↔ A
4. Cold and humid ↔ C
5. Warm and dry ↔ E
Where;
A Represents continental polar
B Represents Artic
C Represents Maritime Polar
D Represents Maritime Tropical
E Represents Continental Tropical
Explanation:
A. A continental polar is one that can be described as a cold and dry climate as the region is located at a further away from the oceanic water bodies that add humidity to the climate
B. The regions of the Artic and the Antarctic have very limited amount of precipitation every year because the air is very cold as well as dry
C. A polar climate is a cold climate region, while a maritime climate is humid.
Therefore, the maritime polar climate combines both cold and humid conditions
D. A warm and humid region has high rainfall and humidity, as such the maritime climate which are humid and the tropical climate, which are warm, combine to give a warm and humid climate
E. The continental tropical climate can be described as warm and dry, compared to the continental water bodies, due to the location being distant from and therefore, the absence of high moisture containing wind that comes from the oceans.
Hi!
The correct options would be:
1. Cathode - <em>reduction</em>
The cathode is the negatively charged electrode, and so has an excess of electrons. Cations (positively charged ions) are attracted to the cathode, and gain electrons to acquire a neutral charge. The process in which a gain of electron occurs is called reduction.
2. Anode - <em>oxidation</em>
The opposite occurs at the anode which is positively charged and attracts negatively charged ions, anions. These anions lose their electrons at the anode to acquire a neutral charge, and the process involving loss of electrons is known as oxidation.
3. Salt Bridge - <em>ion transport </em>
Salt bridge is a physical connection between the the anodic and cathodic half cells in an electrochemical cell and is a pathway that facilitates the flow of ions back and forth these half cells. Salt bridge is involved in maintaining a neutral condition in the electrochemical cells, and its absence would result in the accumulation of positive charge in the anodic cell, and negative charge in the cathodic cell.
4. Wire - <em>electron transport </em>
Wires have a universal role of being a pathway for the transport of electrons in circuit. This role is also the same in the wires involved in an electrochemical cells where they are used to transport electrons from the anodic half cell, and this electron transport results in the generation of electricity in the internal circuit of the electrochemical cell.
Hope this helps!
