The Coriolis Effect describes the turn of the wind to the right in the Northern Hemisphere caused by earth's rotation.
electrons are transferred in a oxidation-reduction reaction
oxidation reduction chemical equation involve electrons transfer between two species. In this reduction-oxidation type of chemical equation oxidation number of molecule, atoms or ion changes by gaining or losing electrons,that is there an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent in the reaction.
Answer:
Q.89
Alkane - CnH(2n+2)
given that 8 H = > 8= 2n+2
therefore n= 3
C3H8 = 12×3 + 8×1= 36 +8 = 44
Answer:
B. PROTONS EXHIBIT STRONGER PULL ON OUTER f ORBITALS
Explanation:
Lanthanide contraction is the greater than normal decrease in the ionic radius of the lanthanide series from atomic number 57 to atomic number 71. This decrease is rather not expected of the ionic radii of these elements and they result in the greater decrease in the subsequent series of the lanthanides from the atomic number 72. The cause of which is as a result of the poor shielding effects of the nuclear charge around the electrons of the f orbitals. So therefore, protons are strongly pulled out of the 4f orbital and as a result of the poor shielding effect which causes the electrons of the 6s orbitals to be drawn more closer to the nucleus and hence resulting in a smaller atomic radii. It is worthy to note that the shielding effects of the inner electrons decreasing from s orbital to the f orbital; that is s > p > d > f. So from the decrease in the shielding effects from s to the f orbitals, lanthanide contraction results from the inability of the orbitals far away from s like the 4f orbiatls to shield the outermost shells of the lanthanide elements. So the cause of lanthanide contraction is the action of the protons which strongly pull the electrons of the f orbitals because of the poor shielding effects due to the distance of this orbital from the nucleus.
Answer is C. 2, 3 and 5 shows how as the number of carbon increase, butane, pentane and hexane (4,5 and 6 carbons) the octane number does decrease
