4 0

Explanation:

For example, Identify the number and type of ions formed in a reaction of calcium and carbon. Step 1: Determine the number of valence electrons for each element and whether the element loses or gains electrons. Calcium has 2 valence electrons and is a metal so it will give up two electrons.

Softa [21]

Frequency is defined as the number of waves per second. In this machine 25 waves pass in one second.
We need to calculate the number of waves that pass a particular point during one second.
During 2 seconds -25 waves
Therefore in one second - 25/2 = 12.5 waves/s.
1 wave per second has the unit Hertz (Hz)
Therefore answer is 12.5 Hz

The "d" subshell can hold a maximum of ________ electrons.

Verizon [17]

The d subshell has 5 orbitals (with each being able to hold two electrons. As such, the d orbital can hold a maximum of 10 electrons.

The "d" subshell can hold a maximum of _TEN_ electrons.

A sample has a pH of -0.248 (yes, it really is possible to have a negative pH). Find

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

pOH= 14.248

[H+]=1.77 M

[OH-]=5.65 x10^-15M

Explanation:

pH+pOH= 14

pOH= 14-pH

pOH=14-(-0.248)

pOH= 14.248

[H+]=10^-pH= 10^-(-0.248)=1.77 M

[OH-]=10^-pOH= 10^-14.248=5.65 x10^-15M

How many 3-liter balloons could the 12-L helium tank pressurized to 160 atm fill? Keep in mind that an "exhausted" helium tank i

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The 12L helium tank pressurized to 160 atm will fill 636 3-liter balloons

Explanation:

It is possible to answer this question using Boyle's law:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

Where P₁ is the pressure of the tank (160atm), V₁ is the volume of the tank (12L), P₂ is the pressure of the balloons (1atm, atmospheric pressure) And V₂ is the volume this gas will occupy at 1 atm, thus:

160atm×12L = 1atm×V₂

V₂ = 1920L

As the tank will never be empty, the volume of the gas able to fill balloons is the total volume minus 12L, thus the volume of helium able to fill balloons is:

1920L - 12L = 1908L

1908L will fill:

1908L× $\frac{1balloon}{3L}$ = 636 balloons

I hope it helps!
