Answer:
Force used by fire extinguisher = 60 N
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of skateboard with fire extinguisher = 50 kg
Acceleration of fire extinguisher = 1.2 m/s²
Find:
Force used by fire extinguisher = ?
Computation:
⇒ Force = Mass × Acceleration
⇒ Force used by fire extinguisher = Mass of skateboard with fire extinguisher × Acceleration of fire extinguisher
⇒ Force used by fire extinguisher = 50 kg × 1.2 m/s²
⇒ Force used by fire extinguisher = 60 N
You need to find the whole molar mass of the compound using the periodic table to add the values.
Na2CO3= (2 x 23.0) + 12.0 + (3 x 16.0)= 106 g/mol
H2O= 10 x [ (2 x 1.01 ) + (16.0) ]= 180.2 g/mol
the total molar mass is 106 + 180.2 = 286.2 g/mol
the percentage of water you can find by doing "parts over the whole"
H2O%= 180.2 / 286.2 X 100= 63.0%
Answer: Metals form cations.
The alkali metals (the IA elements) lose a single electron to form a cation with a 1+ charge.
The alkaline earth metals (IIA elements) lose two electrons to form a 2+ cation.
Aluminum, a member of the IIIA family, loses three electrons to form a 3+ cation.
Therefore, metals in the s and p block of the periodic table have 1, 2 or 3 electrons in their outermost orbit (or valence shell). Now to gain a stable octet metals lose either 1, 2 or 3 electrons from the valence shell thus forming cation with +1, +2 or +3 charge.
