Why is one side of the moon called "the dark side of the moon"?

Chemistry
1 answer:
dlinn [17]3 years ago
4 0
The 'dark side' of the Moon refers to the hemisphere of the Moon that is facing away from the Earth. ... It is only 'dark' to us, as that hemisphere can never be viewed from Earth due to a phenomenon known as 'Tidal Locking'

Answer: The statement, average kinetic energy of the gas particles is greater in container A because its particles move faster is correct.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy obtained due to the motion of an object or substance.

K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT

where,

T = temperature

This means that kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature.

So, when heat is provided to container A then its molecules will start to move rapidly from one place to another which will cause more collisions between the atoms.

Hence, average kinetic energy will be more in container A.

Whereas container B is placed at room temperature which is low than that in container A. So, molecules in container B will move at almost same speed and therefore, specific collisions will be there. So, average kinetic energy in container B will be less than that in container A.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement, average kinetic energy of the gas particles is greater in container A because its particles move faster is correct.

An atom of which element has the greatest attraction for the electrons in a bond with a hydrogen atom?
Nadusha1986 [10]
The question can be changed into a new form:
Which element has the most negative electron affinity, or attraction for electrons? halogens have the highest electron affinities, and thus are more attracted to the electrons in the Hydrogen atom than any element in their respective periods.
In this case all the following choices are in the same period, thus Cl or Chlorine is the answer as it is a halogen.

Given LiCl, NaCl, KCl, MgCl2, and SrCl2, arrange the compounds in order of increasing lattice energy.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:-  KCl

Explanations:- Lattice energy depends on two factors, charge and size.

High charge and small size gives higher lattice energy where as low charge and bigger size gives lower lattice energy.

in LiCl, NaCl and KCl, the anion is same and also the charges for Li, Na and K are also same. The deciding factor here is the size of cations. Since the size increases as we move down a group, the order of size of these three atoms is Li<Na<K.

The order of lattice energy is exactly opposite as it's increases as the size decreases.

Now, if we look at magnesium chloride and strontium chloride then again the anion is common but the metals have higher charge as compared to the alkali metals(Li, Na and K). So, lattice energy values must be higher for these two compounds. If we compare Mg and Sr then size of Mg is smaller and so the lattice energy would be greater for this.

Hence, the increasing order of lattice energy is KCl .

How do the metals in group 1 compare with the transition metals?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Group 1 metals and transition metals are different from each other, mainly based on the colour of the chemical compounds that they form. The key difference between group 1 metals and transition metals is that the group 1 metals form colourless compounds, whereas the transition metals form colourful compounds.
