Answer:
The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Those outer electrons are also called valence electrons. They are the electrons involved in chemical bonds with other elements.
Explanation:
Answer : The volume of the balloon will be, 0.494 liters
Solution :
Charles' Law : It is defined as the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

or,

where,
= initial volume of gas = ?
= final volume of gas = 0.54 L
= initial temperature of gas = 273.15 K
= final temperature of gas = 298.5 K
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the initial volume of balloon.


Therefore, the volume of the balloon will be, 0.494 liters
Answer:
Unchanged.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, for the experiment you performed, as you previously removed the sodium chloride, its % salt calculation will not be affected by the lost of the sand. It is important to remember that such experiments must be performed carefully as the committed error is a high-impact factor regarding to the experiment's performance. It is important for you to remember that to separate the sodium chloride, it earlier dissolution in water allowed to be dissolved leveraging the insolubility of sand in water, thus, it was decanted easily.
Best regards.
