Answer:

kinetically stable.

Explanation:

When we say that a system is thermodynamically unstable, it means that there is still a state in which the system is expected to have lower energy than it currently has. A thermodynamically unstable system is yet to attain equilibrium hence it can still undergo further chemical processes in order to attain thermodynamic stability.

When we say that a system is kinetically stable, it means that the activation energy or energy barrier for the reaction system is high. Thus reactants are not easily converted into products. The reaction system remains the same for a long while without change.

Finally, when a reaction is thermodynamically unstable (spontaneous) but no change is observed, the reaction is kinetically stable.

Every pure substance has exact and specific density. What are two purposes that a chemist would use a calculated density for.
adell [148]

Answer:

1. Density can be used to identify a substance

2. Density can be used to ascertain whether a substance will float in water.

Explanation:

The calculation of the density of a substance can be used to identify the substance. If the density of a substance is calculated accurately, and compared with a table of standard densities, then we can identify that substance.

Also, density determines whether an object will float or sink in water. If an object is less dense than water then it will float in water. If it is denser than water, then it will sink in water.

Which element does this atom represent?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Option C is correct = fluorine

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

This diagram show that there are 9 electrons and 9 protons are present. We know that the number of protons or electrons are atomic number of that element. From periodic table we know that atomic number of fluorine is 9 thus the given atom present fluorine atom.
