Answer:

They all wear their skeletons on the outside! This is called an exoskeleton and all creatures that have their structure on the outside are included in the phylum of Arthropods.

Which element can expand its valence shell to accommodate more than eight electrons? which element can expand its valence shell

Anvisha [2.4K]

<span>According to octet rule, atoms with an atomic number less than 20 tend to combine with other atom such that both of these atoms have eight electrons in their valence shells, which gives them the same electronic configuration as that of noble gas.

However, there are few compound that donot obey octel rule. Among the elements mentioned above i.e. oxygen and helium obeys octet rule.

In case of nitrogen, oxide of nitrogen (like NO and NO2) have incomplete octet.

While there are few compounds of Br wherein Br has expanded octet. For example, in BrF5, Br has 12 electrons in valence shell. </span>

Which tool or tools would you use to measure and compare the mass of a cup of fresh water and a cup of salt water

Artemon [7]

You could use a scale to measure the mass as well as a cup to hold the water. If you were comparing the two, you should also probably use a graduated cylinder to get the same amount of each type of water.

Hope this helped ^_^

How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 10.6 grams of gaseous neon from

Alona [7]

Answer:

Approximately $1.95 \times 10^{2}\; \rm J$ .

Explanation:

Look up the specific heat of gaseous neon:

$c = 1.03 \; \rm J \cdot g^{-1} \cdot K^{-1}$ .

Calculate the required temperature change:

$\Delta T = (37.9 - 20.0)\; \rm K = 17.9\; \rm K$ .

Let $m$ denote the mass of a sample of specific heat $C$ . Energy required to raise the temperature of this sample by $\Delta T$ :

$Q = c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T$ .

For the neon gas in this question:

$c = 1.03\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1}$ .
$m = 10.6\; \rm g$ .
$\Delta T = (37.9 - 20.0)\; \rm K = 17.9\; \rm K$ .

Calculate the energy associated with this temperature change:

$\begin{aligned}Q &= c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T \\ &= 1.03\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1} \times 10.6\; \rm g \times 17.9\; \rm K \\ &\approx 1.95 \times 10^{2}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

Which step will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container? increasing the number of moles of gas decreasi

Jobisdone [24]

Answer: Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.

Explanation:

According to Gay-Lussac's Law : 'The pressure of the gas increases with increase in temperature of the gas when volume of the gas is kept constant'.

$(Pressure)\propto (Temperature)$

At constant volume, pressure of the gas will decrease on decreasing the temperature or vice versa.

Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.

Acetic acid has a Kb of 2.93 °C/m and a normal boiling point of 118.1 °C. What would be the boiling point of a solution made by

alexdok [17]

Boiling point elevation is given as:

ΔTb=iKbm

Where,

ΔTb=elevation in the boiling point

that is given by expression:

ΔTb=Tb (solution) - Tb (pure solvent)

Here Tb (pure solvent)=118.1 °C

i for CaCO3= 2

Kb=2.93 °C/m

m=Molality of CaCO₃:

Molality of CaCO₃=Number of moles of CaCO₃/ Mass of solvent (Kg)

=(Given Mass of CaCO3/Molar mass of CaCO₃)/ Mass of solvent (Kg)

=(100.0÷100 g/mol)/0.4

= 2.5 m

So now putting value of m, i and Kb in the boiling point elevation equation we get:

ΔTb=iKbm

=2×2.93×2.5

=14.65 °C

boiling point of a solution can be calculated:

ΔTb=Tb (solution) - Tb (pure solvent)

14.65=Tb (solution)-118.1

Tb (solution)=118.1+14.65

=132.75
