Answer:

The radial velocity curve describes how fast a star is moving in its orbit around a center of mass ( m )

Curve amplitude : This is the maximum value of the radial velocity curve

Radial velocity shape ; The shape of Radial velocity curve is parabolic in nature

Orbital period : Orbital period is the time taken by the star to make one complete rotation in its orbit

Explanation:

The radial velocity curve describes how fast a star is moving in its orbit around a center of mass ( m ) while Curve amplitude is the maximum value of the radial velocity curve also The shape of Radial velocity curve is parabolic in nature. and Orbital period is the time taken by the star to make one complete rotation in its orbit

Explain why the male angler fish is small and does not require a fully formed gut

Arturiano [62]

Answer:They are small because they don't need larger bodies to enable them attach to the females. They don't have fully formed gut because when they reach adulthood their digestive system stops functioning.

Explanation:they then find a female angler fish, attach by bitting into her flesh and fusing to her body. So whatever she eats they eat too.

Write Lewis structures for the following molecules: (a) ICl, (b) PH3, (c) P4 (each P is bonded to three other P atoms), (d) H2S,

spin [16.1K]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure for the following molecules are shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

Now we have to determine the Lewis-dot structure for the following molecules.

(a) The given molecule is, $ICl$

As we know that iodine and chlorine have '7' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $ICl$ = 7 + 7 = 14

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 2 number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons.

(b) The given molecule is, $PH_3$

As we know that phosphorous has '5' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $PH_3$ = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

(c) The given molecule is, $P_4$

As we know that phosphorous has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $P_4$ = 4(5) = 20

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 14 number of non-bonding electrons.

(d) The given molecule is, $H_2S$

As we know that sulfur has '6' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $H_2S$ = 6 + 2(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 4 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons.

(e) The given molecule is, $N_2H_4$

As we know that nitrogen has '5' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $N_2H_4$ = 2(5) + 4(1) = 14

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 10 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons.

(f) The given molecule is, $HClO_3$

As we know that chlorine has '7' valence electrons, oxygen has '6' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $HClO_3$ = 1 + 7 + 3(6) = 26

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 12 number of bonding electrons and 14 number of non-bonding electrons.

(g) The given molecule is, $COBr_2$

As we know that bromine has '7' valence electrons, oxygen has '6' valence electrons and carbon has '4' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $COBr_2$ = 4 + 6 + 2(7) = 24

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.

Writing Chemical Equations

nignag [31]

Answer:

The prefix di means 2 and the prefix hexa means 6.

As per IUPAC rules you must use the prefixes to indicate the number of atoms of each element in the formula.

So, the proper name for the compound C2H6 is dicarbon hexahydride.

What are the base units the SI units are based on?<br> A-10<br> B-100<br> C-1,000<br> D-1

Olegator [25]

Answer:

A-10

Explanation:

In the SI, designations of multiples and subdivision of any unit may be arrived at by combining with the name of the unit the prefixes deka, hecto, and kilo meaning, respectively, 10, 100, and 1000, and deci, centi, and milli, meaning, respectively, one-tenth, one-hundredth, and one-thousandth.
