Generally, which of the three families of elements (metals, nonmetals, or inert gases) has the least tendency to form ionic bond

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Inert gases

Explanation:

Inert elements have a stable electron configuration meaning their shells/orbitals are full with their requisite number of electrons. Therefore, gaining or losing an electron would take high ionization energy. Therefore they are less likely to be involved in chemical reaction unless a high amount of energy is used. An example of an inert gas is Helium.

Assume that coal can be represented by the chemical formula C135H96O9NS. If 4.0 tons of coal is burned, what mass of nitrogen is

Schach [20]

Answer:

0.02 tons of NO produced when 4 tons of coal is burned

Explanation:

From the given,

Chemical formula of coal = $C_{134}H_{96}O_{9}NS$

Molecular mass of coal = $(134\times12)+(9\times1)+(9\times16)+14+32\,=1906.1gm$

Let’s calculate the mass of nitrogen in coal

$Percentage\,weight\,of\,nitrogen=\frac{Mass\,of\,nitrogen}{Molecular\,mass\,of coal}$

$Percentage\,weight/,of/,nitrogen=\frac{14}{1906.1}=0.73%$

Amount of coal burnt = 4tons

Amount of NO produced by burning 4tons = $4\,tons\,of\,coal\times \frac{0.73tons}{100\,tons\,of\,coal}=0.0292\,tons$

This nitrogen is converted into NO by reacting with atmospheric oxygen.

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.

Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.

General formulas used in decay:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{t/t\frac{1}{2} }}}$

T = duration of decay

t 1/2 = half-life

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time

Nt=25 g

No=100 g

t1/2=5770 years

$\tt 25=100\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\2=T/5770\rightarrowT=11540~years$

What energy does a rock resting on a hilltop store?

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

gravitational energy

Explanation:

It is gravitational (potential) energy because of the place that the rock holds in the gravitational field. It has <u>potential</u> to move downward, because of <u>gravity</u>.
