Answer:

Some compounds form double or triple bonds so they can become more stable.

Explanation:

A Lewis structure for CO₂ that obeys the octet rule and has only single bonds would be the first formula below.

The molecule can become more stable if the single electrons move into the regions between the nuclei to form double bonds as in the second formula below.

The electrons can then hold the nuclei more tightly together and make the molecule more stable.

At a fixed volume, a four-fold increase in the temperature of a gas will lead to _______ in pressure.
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

D) a four-fold increase

Explanation:

According to Gay-Lussac's law, which states that the pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the temperature at a constant volume, the pressure increases with an increase in temperature.

According to this question, at a fixed volume, a four-fold increase in the temperature of a gas will lead to a four-fold increase in the pressure as well.

Hence, 5.1 * 10^-11 alpha particles is being emitted each second by the sample.

<h3>What is half life?</h3>

The term half life is the time taken for only half of the original  amount of radioactive nuclides to remain.

Thus, we have that the half life is 432.2 years or 1.36 * 10^10 s.

k = 0.693/ 1.36 * 10^10 s

k = 5.1 * 10^-11 alpha particles per second.
