Answer:

A FUSE is a type of conductor which protects the circuit by shorting it down when there is excess flow of current passing through it.

Explanation:

A fuse wire is made up of conducting materials such as alloy of tin and lead that has high resistivity. It has a low melting point of 200°C. It works based on the principle of heating effect of electric current. The functions of fuses include the following:

--> Fuses are made up of thin wire CONDUCTORS which interrupts or breaks the current flow of a circuit when in excess, thereby protecting the circuit from damage.

--> it prevents overload of current. In the event where too many appliances are connected to a single circuit, this can lead to overload which triggers a fuse to terminate the circuit connection.

--> It prevents total black-out: SWITCH-LIKE devices known as CIRCUIT BREAKERS share this function with the fuses. The nearest circuit breaks if any dysfunction occurs in the components of the circuit thereby preventing blackout.

Which of the following atoms forms an ionic bond with a sulfur atom? (Points : 3)

elena-s [515]

Ionic bonds are formed when there is complete transfer of valence electrons between two atoms.

Electronegativity tells the trend of an atom to atract electrons.

You should search for the complete set of rules that indicate whether an ionic or covalent bond happens.

There are two relevant rules to state if whether an ionic bond will happen:

- When the difference of electronegativities between the two atoms is greater than 2.0, then the bond is ionic.

- When the difference is between 1.6 and 2.0, the bond is ionic if one of the elements is a metal.

You need to list the electronegativities of the five elements (there are tables with this information)

Element electronegativity

Cu: 1.9
H: 2.2
Cl 3.16
I: 2.66
S: 2.58

Differences:

Cu / S: 2.58 - 1.9 = 0.68
H / S: 2.58 - 2.2 = 0.38
Cl / S: 3.16 - 2.58 =0.58
I / S: 2.66 - 2.58 = 0.08

Those differences are too low to consider that the bond is ionic.

Then the answer is that none of those atoms forms an ionic bond with sulfur.

Electrons in atoms exist in particular energy level. A ___ must be emitted or absorbed to move between energy levels.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Photon of light

Explanation:

According to Bohr's model of the atom, electrons in atoms are found in specific energy levels. These energy levels are called stationary states, an electrons does not radiate energy when it occupies any of these stationary states.

However, an electron may absorb energy and move from one energy level or stationary state to another. The energy difference between the two energy levels must correspond to the energy of the photon of light absorbed in order to make the transition possible.

Since electrons are generally unstable in excited states, the electron quickly jumps back to ground states and emits the excess energy absorbed. The frequency or wavelength of the emitted photon can now be measured and used to characterize the transition. This is the principle behind many spectrometric and spectrophotometric methods.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! Calculate the bond for CO2

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Bonding Order = number of bonding electrons – number of antibonding electrons/2.

So for CO2, there is a total of 16 electrons, 8 of which are antibonding electrons.

So 16 – 8 = 8; divided by 2 = 4. So, 4 is the bonding order of CO2. The molecular structure of CO2 looks like this:

Explain why is sodium less reactive than potassium

leva [86]

Answer:

As potassium is larger than sodium, potassium's valence electron is at a greater distance from the attractive nucleus and is so removed more easily than sodium's valence electron. As it is removed more easily, it requires less energy, and can be said to be more reactive.

Explanation:

A process at constant T and P can be described as spontaneous if ΔG < 0 and nonspontaneous if ΔG > 0. Over what range of t

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Incomplete question, it is lacking the data it makes reference. The missing data from Chegg is:

2 SO3(g) → 2 SO2(g) + O2(g)

ΔHf° (kJ mol-1) -395.7 -296.8

S° (J K-1 mol-1) 256.8 248.2 205.1

ΔH° = kJ

S° = J K⁻¹

Explanation:

The method to solve this problem calls for the use of the Gibbs standard free energy change:

ΔG = ΔrxnH - TΔSrxn

We know a reaction is spontaneous when ΔG is < 0, so to answer this question we need to solve for the temperature, T, at which ΔG becomes negative.

Now as mentioned in the hint, we need to determine ΔrxnH and ΔSrxn, which are given by

ΔrxnH = ∑ ν x ΔfHº products - ∑ ν x ΔfHº reactants

where ν is the stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

For ΔS we have likewise

ΔrxnS = ∑ ν x ΔSº products - ∑ ν x ΔSº reactants

Thus,

ΔrxnH(kJmol⁻¹) = 2 x (-296.8) - 2 x ( -395.7 ) = 197.8 kJ

ΔrxnS ( JK⁻¹) = 2 x 248.2 + 205.1 - 2 x 256.8 = 187.9 JK⁻¹ = 0.1879 kJK⁻¹

So ΔG kJ = 197.8 - T(0.1879)

and the reaction will become spontaneous when the term T(0.1879) becomes greater that 197.8,

0 = 197.8 - 0.1879 T ⇒ T = 1052 K

so the reaction is spontaneous at temperatures greater than 1052 K (780 ºC)
