When gas molecules collide with other gas molecules or the walls of a container, does it affect their speed?

Which of these best describes the relationship between the inner core, outer core, mantle, crust, asthenosphere, and lithosphere

torisob [31]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Which of these best describes the relationship between the inner core, outer core, mantle, crust, asthenosphere, and lithosphere?

A: The coolest layers are farthest from the core.

B: The least dense layers are closest to the core.

C: The layers with the highest concentration of metals are closest to the crust.

D: The layers that remain in a molten state are closest to the crust.

Answer:

The coolest layers are farthest from the core.

Explanation:

When we talk about the internal structure of Earth, we mean the subdivisions of the solid Earth, that is, the concentric spherical layers that marks out the structure of the solid Earth.

The inner core is the innermost part of the earth's core and is known to have extremely high temperature. This high temperature steadily decreases as you approach the earth's surface.

Hence, the coolest layers are farthest from the core.

When radium-226 (atomic number-88) decays by emitting an alpha particle it becomes _____.

topjm [15]

Answer:

d. Radon-222

Explanation:

²²⁶₈₈Ra → ²²²₈₆Rn + ⁴₂He

Alpha particle is a helium nucleus with mass number 4 and atomic number 2. According to the law of conversation of mass, the sum of the mass number and atomic number must be equal on both side of the reaction.

Since the mass number of Ra is 226 and that of He is 4. The mass number of the unknown element must be 226 - 4 = 222.

Since the atomic number of Ra is 88 and that of He is 2. The atomic number of the unknown element must be 88 - 2 = 86.

Now looking in the periodic table Radon is the only element with atomic number 86.

Write the appropriate symbol for each of the following isotopes: (a) Z 11, A 23; (b) Z= 28, A= 64; (c) Z= 50, A =115; (d) Z= 20,

prohojiy [21]

Explanation:

Z = atomic mass of the element and , A = atomic mass of the element .

a) Z = 11, A = 23

Element = Sodium

symbol: ²³₁₁Na .

b) Z = 28, A = 64

Element = Nickel

symbol: ⁶⁴₂₈Ni .

c) Z = 50, A = 115

Element = tin

symbol: ¹¹⁵₅₀Sn .

d) Z = 20, A = 42

Element = Calcium

symbol: ⁴²₂₀Ca .

Without consulting Appendix B, arrange each group in order of increasing standard molar entropy (S°). Explain.(c) SF₆(g), SF₄(g)

Andre45 [30]

The increasing order of standard molar entropy (S°) is as follow:

SF₄(g) < SF₆(g) < S₂F₁₀(g)

<h3>What is Entropy? </h3>

Entropy is defined as the randomness of the particle. It depends on temperature and pressure or number of particle per unit volume.

It is directly proportional to the temperature and pressure of the gas.

<h3>What is Standard Molar Entropy? </h3>

The standard molar entropy is defined as the entropy content of the one mole of pure substance at the standard state of temperature and pressure of interest.

The standard molar entropy is also defined as the total amount of entropy which 1 mole of the substance acquire, as it is brought from 0K to standard conditions of temperature and pressure.

The standard molar entropy depends on the molas mass of atom, molecules or compound.

SF₄(g) has lower standard molar entropy. Due to less complexity of this molecules.

While, complexity increases from SF₆(g) to S₂F₁₀(g). Therefore, the standard molar entropy of S₂F₁₀(g) is greater than SF₆(g).

Thus, we concluded that the increasing order of standard molar entropy (S°) is as follow:

SF₄(g) < SF₆(g) < S₂F₁₀(g)
