Strontium and chlorine combine in only one ratio: one strontium atom for every two chlorine atoms. Based on this
Vinvika [58]

The combinations of Strontium and chlorine  that are possible are only those in which strontium and chlorine combine in the ratio of 1:2.

1) The possible combinations are

  • 4 strontium atoms and 8 chlorine
  • 2.7 * 10^19 strontium atoms and5.4 * 10^19 chlorine atoms

2) The combinations that are not possible are

  • 20 strontium atoms and 60 chlorine atoms
  • 130 billion strontium atoms and 195 billion chlorine

We have to work out the ratio of Strontium and chlorine in each of the given  combinations in the question. Only the combinations in which the ratio of Strontium and chlorine is 1:2 is possible.

First case:

4 strontium atoms and 8 chlorine atoms gives a Strontium and chlorine ratio of 1:2 so it is possible.

Second case:

20 strontium atoms and 60 chlorine atoms gives a Strontium and chlorine ratio of 1:3 hence it is not possible.

Third case:

2.7 * 10^19 strontium atoms and 5.4 * 10^19 chlorine atoms gives a Strontium and chlorine ratio of 1:2 hence it is possible.

Fourth case:

130 billion strontium atoms and 195 billion chlorine atoms gives a Strontium and chlorine ratio of 1:1.5 hence it is not possible.

An experiment applies heat to a substance and produces a gas that is a new and different substance. Choose the true statement.
sergejj [24]
Im a bit torn here, lets look at the definitions of physical and chemical changes:
physical change changes only the phase/state of a substance, but not what the substance is
chemical change is a chemical reaction where a new substance is formed and energy is given off or absorbed.
(it just started raining and it smells really nice out my window)

clearly, this cannot be just a physical reaction. i think i would be inclined to pick B. but C. could have merit as an answer too. sorry for the ambiguity x

what is the difference between the number of electrons in an atom of selenium and the number of electrons in an atom of aluminum
igomit [66]

Answer:

The atomic number of Selenium is 34. This means that Selenium possesses 34 electrons.

The atomic number of Aluminium is 13. This means that Aluminium has 13 electrons.

Hence, there is a difference of 21 between the number of electrons in an atom of selenium and the number of electrons in an atom of aluminium.

Selenium has 6 electrons in it's outer most shell whereas aluminium has 3 electrons in its outer most shell. As a result, aluminium will have a greater tendency to lose one of its outer most electrons to become stable.

Some people must eat a low-sodium diet with no more than 2,000 mg of sodium per day. By eating 1 cracker, 1 pretzel, and 1 cooki
Leni [432]

Answer:

The amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.

Explanation:

Let's assume amount of sodium is x mg per cracker, y mg per pretzel and z mg per cookie.

So, the following three equations can be written as per given information:

x+y+z = 149 ........(1)

8y+8z = 936 ........(2)

6x+7y = 535 .........(3)

From equation- (2), y+z = \frac{936}{8} = 117

By substituting the value of (y+z) in equation- (1) we get,

                          x = 149-(y+z) = 149-117 = 32

By substituting the value of x into equation- (3) we get,

                           y = \frac{535-(6\times 32)}{7} = 49

By substituting the value of y  into equation- (2) we get,

                           z = (117-49) = 68

So, the amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.
