Answer:

The correct answer is - D. Freezing point depression.

Explanation:

When rock salt is spread over snow-covered icy roads, it generates a liquid layer over it by melting from the surface thereby lowering or depression in the freezing point below the ice.

Therefore, due to this liquid layer comes into the contact with the ice present on the road and causes other ice to melts. This keeps on decreasing the volume of the ice on the road therefore, rock salts spread on the roads during a snowstorm.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

142.36 kg

Explanation:

volume of water in the lake = surface area x depth

= 18.5 x ( 1760 x 3 )² x 39 ft³

= 2.011 x 10¹⁰ ft³

= 2.011 x 10¹⁰ x 28.3168 liter .

= 56.945 x 10¹⁰ liter .

concentration of mercury = .25 x 10⁻⁶ g / liter

= 25 x 10⁻⁸ g / liter

= 25 x 10⁻¹¹ kg / liter

mass of mercury in the water of lake

= 25 x 10⁻¹¹ x 56.945 x 10¹⁰ kg

= 142.36 kg .

How many valence electrons does K+ have
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

About one valence electron

Explanation:

Obviously, removing that electron gives us [Ar] (same configuration as K1+), which is a noble gas and has 8 electrons. Valence electrons are generally regarded as being 'the outermost electrons' for a given atom. Therefore, with neutral potassium, there is one valence electron
