Answer:

Dysprosium [Dy]= $[Xe]4f^{10}6s^2$

Americium [Am]= $[Rn]5f^77s^2$

Dysprosium is a chemical element with symbol Dy and atomic number of 66. It is a rare earth metal and as it contains partially filled f sub shells, it belongs to f block. Xe is the nearest noble gas and has atomic number of 54.

Americium is a chemical element with symbol Am and atomic number of 95. It is a rare earth metal and as it contains half filled f sub shells, it belongs to f block. Radon is the nearest noble gas and has atomic number of 86.

What two aspects of a force do scientists measure?

Rashid [163]

Answer: option c. magnitude and direction

Explanation:

1) Force is a vector: it has magnitude and direction.

2) Magnitude measures the "intensity" of the force. It is measured in newtons (N), in the SI (international system of units). One newton is the force exerted to confere an acceleration of 1 m/s² to a mass of 1 kg.

3) Telling the magnitude of the force is not enough information to understand what the force is and to predict its effect.

It is necessary to tell the direction in which the force is applied.

It is not the same a force of 10 N that pulls that the same magnitude pushing. And it is not the same a hhorizontal force of 100 N to move an object, than the same magnitude applied at an agle.

That is why the force must be measured and reported as a magnitude and a direction.

4) Examples of forces correctly reported are:

i) 100 N vertically upward

ii) 1000 N 20° to the east of the north.

iii) 0.2 N with an elevation angle of 50°.

Then, scientists must measure the magnitude and the direction of the force.

If 4.12 l of a 0.850 m-h3po4 solution is be diluted to a volume of 10.00 l, what is the concentration of the resulting solution?

statuscvo [17]

The process in which the concentration of the solution is lessened by the addition of water is said to be dilution and equation of dilution relates the initial concentration and volume of stock solution with the final concentration and volume of the solution.

Formula is given by:

$C_{1}V_{1}=C_{2}V_{2}$ (1)
