Power grid
All the poles and wires you see along the highway and in front of your house are called the electrical transmission and distribution system. Today, generating stations all across the country are connected to each other through the electrical system (sometimes called the "power grid").

What is the element with the lowest electronegativity value?
Lerok [7]
<h2>Answer: Francium </h2>

Let's start by explaining that electronegativity is a term coined by Linus Pauling and is determined by the <em>ability of an atom of a certain element to attract electrons when chemically combined with another atom. </em>

So, the more electronegative an element is, the more electrons it will attract.

It should be noted that this value can not be measured directly by experiments, but it can be determined indirectly by means of calculations from other atomic or molecular properties of the element. That is why the scale created by Pauling is an arbitrary scale, where the maximum value of electronegativity is 4, assigned to Fluorine (F) and the <u>lowest is 0.7, assigned to Francium (Fr).</u>

(a) What is the minimum width of a single slit (in multiples of λ ) that will produce a first minimum for a wavelength λ ? (b) W
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The minimum value of width for first minima is λ

The  minimum value of width for 50 minima is 50λ

The  minimum value of width for 1000 minima is 1000λ

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = λ

For D to be small,

We need to calculate the minimum width

Using formula of minimum width

D\sin\theta=n\lambda

D=\dfrac{n\lambda}{\sin\theta}

Where, D = width of slit

\lambda = wavelength

Put the value into the formula

D=\dfrac{n\lambda}{\sin\theta}

Here, \sin\theta should be maximum.

So. maximum value of \sin\theta is 1

Put the value into the formula

D=\dfrac{1\times\lambda}{1}

D=\lambda

(b). If the minimum number  is 50

Then, the width is

D=\dfrac{50\times\lambda}{1}

D=50\lambda

(c). If the minimum number  is 1000

Then, the width is

D=\dfrac{1000\times\lambda}{1}

D=1000\lambda

Hence, The minimum value of width for first minima is λ

The  minimum value of width for 50 minima is 50λ

The  minimum value of width for 1000 minima is 1000λ

Why do the noble gases and some other elements on the right side of the periodic table occur as gases instead of solids as do th
mash [69]

Explanation:

The left side of the periodic table has elements that have less number of electrons in the valence shell.

These elements loose electrons easily.These elements appear as metals or metalloids in nature.These are hard solids.Their inter molecular forces are very strong.

The right side of the periodic table has elements that have more number of electrons in the valence shell.

These elements gain electrons easily.These elements appear as non metals most of which are gases.Their inter molecular forces are weak.
