What element has an electron configuration of 2-8-8-1:

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

$a)\ 2FeSO4 \xrightarrow{\text{Heat}} SO_3+SO_2+Fe_2O_3\\b)\ Decomposition\ Reaction$

Explanation:

Ferrous Sulphate $(FeSO4)$ is generally found as Lime-Green Crystals. On heating, these crystals almost immediately turn white-yellow. They then, break down to produce an anhydrous mixture of Sulphur Trioxide $(SO_3)$ , Sulphur Dioxide $(SO_2)$ as well as Ferric Oxide $(Fe_2O_3)$ .

We can hence, frame a skeletal equation of this reaction and try to balance it.

Hence,

$FeSO4 \xrightarrow{\text{Heat}} SO_3+SO_2+Fe_2O_3$

Now,

a)In order to balance it through the 'Hit &Trial Method', we'll follow a series of steps:

1. First, lets compare the number of Fe (Iron) atoms on the RHS and LHS. We find that, the no. of Fe Atoms on the RHS is twice the number of Fe Atoms on the LHS. We hence, add a co-effecient 2 beside $FeSO_4$ .

2. Now, Iron atoms, Sulphur Atoms and Oxygen atoms occur 2, 2, 8 respectively on both the sides:

Hence, As all the other elements as well as iron, balance, we've arrived upon our Balanced Equation :

$2FeSO4 \xrightarrow{\text{Heat}} SO_3+SO_2+Fe_2O_3$

b) We know that, decomposition reactions are [generally] endothermic reactions in which Large Compounds decompose into smaller elements and compounds. Here, as Ferrous Sulphate decomposes into Sulphur Dioxide, Sulphur Trioxide and Ferric Oxide, the reaction that occurs here is Decomposition Reaction.

Indicate which of the following statements is FALSE.a. Covalent bonds connect nucleotides in a strand; noncovalent interactions

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The false statement is d Avery,Macleod and McCarty showed that DNA is the genetic information of cells and RNA is the genetic information in the viruses .

Explanation:

Avery,Macleod and MacCarty showed that DNA is the genetic material of the cell.

On the other hand Fraenkel, Conrat and Sanger carried out their experiment on tobacco mosaic virus to prove that RNA act as genetic material in some viruses.

The development of new technology requires the evaluation of the overall benefit to cost ratio of the new technology.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

B and C Reduce Emissions and Least fuel economy

Explanation:

Plug-in electric vehicles are related, fun and practical (also called electric cars or hybrid electric vehicles). We will reduce emissions and save you even money. EVs deliver more than individual advantages. EVs will allow the US to have a more diverse range of transportation fuel options. Last year the US used almost nine billion barrels of oil, of which two-thirds went into shipping. We are vulnerable to price increases and supply disruptions because of our dependence upon oil. EVs help reduce this threat, as almost all US electricity, including coal, nuclear, natural gas and renewables, is generated from domestic sources.Vehicles can also minimize the CO2 emissions, improve health, and reduce environmental damage that contribute to climate change and smog. Charging your EV for renewable, such as solar or wind, will further reduce these emissions. Link to a calculator on the right to the pollution disparity between the traditional and an EV. Discover how EV reduce pollution and their emissions during their life cycle.
