Answer:

Hope this helps u!!

Explanation:

A useful application of half-lives is radioactive dating. This has to do with figuring out the age of ancient things. If you could watch a single atom of a radioactive isotope, U-238, for example, you wouldn't be able to predict when that particular atom might decay. :) :)

An atom has the following electron configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4 . How many valence electrons does this Atom have
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

This atom is sulfur (if the electrons are equal to the protons/not an ion). You can tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the individual shell. The first shell (1s) can only hold 2 electrons. The second shell (2s and 2p) can hold 8 electrons. The third shell (3s and 3p), which is the valence shell, only has 6 out of its possible 8 electrons, so this atom has 6 valence electrons.

What is the volume of 2 mol of chlorine gas at STP?<br> 2.0 L<br> 11.2 L<br> 22.4 L<br> 44.8 L
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

44.8 L

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas law equation:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

At Standard temperature and pressure (STP);

P = 1 atm

T = 273K

Hence, when n = 2moles, the volume of the gas is:

Using PV = nRT

1 × V = 2 × 0.0821 × 273

V = 44.83

V = 44.8 L

What is chemsity and what does it have to do with science
MatroZZZ [7]
Chemistry is the study of the composition of matter and the ways in which matter interacts, combines, and changes under certain conditions.  Although not as fundamental as physics, chemistry is a very basic and broad science.  It helps us explain bodily interactions and natural process (biochemistry), it helps us to manufacture new medications, and true chemistry research will always follow the scientific method.
