7. What is the prefix value for 100X?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

hecto-

Explanation:

The prefix value of 100 is hecto therefore 100X can be called hecto-x.

Such prefixes as this are expressed in the order of tens. Units generally exists scientifically in multiples and submultiples form using prefixes.

For the multiples:

             10                            deca(da)

            100                           hecto(h)

            1000                        kilo(k)

         1000000                    mega(M)

         1000000000            giga(G)

Hydrogen bromide is found in volcanic gas. What is the chemical formula for<br> this compound?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Hydrogen bromide, anhydrous appears as a colorless gas with a pungent irritating odor. Corrosive. Heavier than air. Prolonged exposure to fire or intense heat may result in the violent rupture and rocketing of the container. Long-term exposure to low concentrations or short-term exposure to high concentrations can result in adverse health effects from inhalation. Used to make other chemicals and as a catalyst in the manufacture of chemicals. Rate of onset: Immediate Persistence: Minutes to hours Odor threshold: 2 ppm Source/use/other hazard: Chemical manufacturing industry; very corrosive.

Which element has a greater electronegativity?<br> fluorine (9) or radium (88)
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Fluorine

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Periodic Trends
  • Electronegativity - the tendency for an element to attract an electron to itself
  • Z-effective and Coulomb's Law, Forces of Attraction

Explanation:

The Periodic Trend for Electronegativity is up and to the right of the Periodic Table.

Fluorine is Element 9 and has 9 protons. Radium is Element 88 and has 88 protons. Therefore, Radium has a bigger Zeff than Flourine.

However, since Radium is in Period 7 while Fluorine is in Period 2, Radium has more core e⁻ than Fluorine does. This will create a much larger shielding effect, causing Radium's outermost e⁻ to have less FOA between them. Fluorine, since it has less core e⁻, the FOA between the nucleus and outershell e⁻ will be much stronger.

Therefore, Fluorine would attract an electron more than Radium, thus bringing us to the conclusion that Fluorine has a higher electronegativity.
