A scientific model is a simplified version of some phenomenon that takes place in natural systems. A scientific model can be visual (flow charts), graphical, conceptual, or mathematical. These models are used to make predictions about how a set of conditions would change the present scenario in future. Scientific models can explain how the ongoing changes in the environment can show long term affect on our planet like the climate change. Therefore, a scientific model can be used to explain the phenomena like the effect of global air temperatures on the mean sea level around the world.
That is false because aluminum melts at 2,470C
Answer:
About 19.64 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of gasoline. On the other hand, 22.38 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of diesel. So, different fossil fuels will give different amounts of carbon dioxide to be released.
Explanation:
Answer:
The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity
Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago
Explanation:
All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.
Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)
For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1
Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.
Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.
For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.
Chemical,when you light a match stick, you are starting a chain reaction of the substance chemical formula, making it a chemical change
