Answer:

b) Silicon and oxygen

Explanation:

A compound is a pure substance that contains two or more atoms chemically joined together. Sand is regarded as a 'compound' because it is made up of two or more atoms that are chemically bonded to one another.

Sand is said to predominantly contain silica, which has a chemical formula of SiO2. Hence, sand can be said to be a compound containing one atom of silicon (Si) and two atoms of oxygen (O2).

: An unknown metal crystallizes in the cubic crystal structure. The metal has a radius 140pm, atomic mass of 135 g/mol, and dens

ki77a [65]

The cubic unit cell this metal crystallize as is BCC structure .

The structure of a crystalline solid, whether a metal or not, is best described by considering its simplest repeating unit, which is referred to as its unit cell.

The unit cell consists of lattice points that represent the locations of atoms or ions.

The entire structure then consists of this unit cell repeating in three dimensions

$\rm \rho =\dfrac{nM}{N_{0} a^{3}} \\\\\\\\\rm n =\dfrac{\rho N_{0} a^{3}}{M} \\\\\\\\Assuming\; it \; to \; be \; a\; BCC\; structure \\\\\\ r = \dfrac{\sqrt{3} \times a}{4} \\\\\\Therefore\; a = 3.23 \times 10^{-8}\\\\\\\\\rm n =\dfrac{13.3 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\times 3.23^{3}\times (10^{-8})^{3}}{135} \\\\$

n= 2

Hence our assumption was correct

It is a BCC structure .

Therefore the cubic unit cell this metal crystallize as is BCC structure .

What type of radiation wave from the Sun does this graphic display?

liraira [26]

The answer is visible rays. For example, when a rain storm stops, the sun comes out and you are likely to see a rainbow. This is because the sun shines on water molecules in the air and the colors appear. These colors are called visible light. The only ray that a naked Human eye can see

What quantity in moles of HCl are there in 35.0 mL of 0.350 M HCl?

marta [7]

Answer:

0.0123 moles

Explanation:

Concentration = Moles / Volume of solution

or you can rearrange the formula to get

Moles = concentration (moles/liter) x volume of solution (liter)

First convert your volume to L instead of mL. 35mL = 0.035L

moles = 0.350 moles/liter x 0.035 liter (liters cancel out)

moles = 0.0123
