Answer:

Layer A is the youngest

It is at the top, it has all of the dinosaur bones which got buried after earth got hit with an asteroid and they went extinct. Layer D started it and all of these years dirt, soil, and fossils have been gathering making each layer before older and older.

Answer:

The youngest fossils would be the "upmost" ones

Explanation:

Logically speaking, in order for fossils to be newer they have to be lied down first, think of it as folding laundry. The clothes that you folded first would be on the bottom, and the newer clothes you would lay ontop of the previous clothing.

A scientist needs to collect a 0.050 mole sample of helium, but needs to know how large his helium container should be. What vol
Mumz [18]

We can use the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

P = 202.6kPa = 202600 Pa (You have to multiply by 1000)

n = 0.050 mole

R = 0.082 atm*l/(K*mol)

T = 400K

We will have to convert from Pa to atm or viceversa.

101325 Pa________1 atm

202600 Pa________x = 2.00 atm

2atm*V = 0.050 mole*0.082 atm*l/(K*mol)* 400K

V = 0.050 mole*0.082 atm*l/(K*mol)* 400K/2atm = 0.82 liters = 820 mililiters

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

  • Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

  • Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

  • Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

  • Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

  • O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.
