B) a molecule
A molecule is formed when two atoms join together with a covalent bond.
Calcium forms an ion with a positive 2 charge and chlorine forms an ion with a negative one charg, so the formula is <span>CaC<span>l2</span></span>
Group 1 metals and group 2 metals form positive ions by losing 1 and 2 electrons respectively. Non-metals in group 17 gain 1, group 16 gain 2 and group 15 gain 3. Elements which lose electrons form positive ions while elements that gain electrons form negative ions.
To write a formula, you must balance charges so the overall charge is zero. A simple way to do this is to swap the # of the ion's charge and make it the subscript of the other ion. However, leave off the number 1 and reduce to lowest whole number ratio.
Answer:
Energy sources do not have 100% efficiency because <em>the processes of energy conversion to usable forms involves energy losses. </em>
Some have lower efficiencies due to; <u>energy losses in form of heat</u> during conversion, <u>poor technology applied during conversion</u> of energy and<u> lack of desire equipment</u> to use in the energy conversion system.
Explanation:
The desired form of energy for use is derived from conversion of energy from the source using an energy converter into another form which is usable. The efficiency of the energy converter is calculated as;
л = output energy/input energy
The efficiency of energy is limited to the cost of equipment required for conversion from energy source by the energy converter to a form which is usable. Additionally, because energy sources are scarce, the technology to use in energy conversion is a factor affecting energy efficiency in that high efficiency will require advanced technology with better equipment leading higher costs of that energy form. when heat losses are involved during energy conversion, efficiency lowers, thus its better if such losses are used as energy input in another system.
Answer: 72.93 litres
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume of gas (V) = ?
Temperature (T) = 24.0°C
Convert 24.0°C to Kelvin by adding 273
(24.0°C + 273 = 297K)
Pressure (P) = 1.003 atm
Number of moles (n) = 3 moles
Molar gas constant (R) is a constant with a value of 0.0821 atm L K-1 mol-1
Then, apply ideal gas equation
pV = nRT
1.003 atm x V = 3.00 moles x 0.0821 atm L K-1 mol-1 x 297K
1.003 atm•V = 73.15 atm•L
Divide both sides by 1.003 atm
1.003 atm•V/1.003 atm = 73.15 atm•L/1.003 atm
V = 72.93 L
Thus, the volume of the gas is 72.93 litres
