Can someone tell me the answer ?

ludmilkaskok [199]

The Aufbau principle states that, hypothetically, electrons orbiting one or more atoms fill the lowest available energy levels before filling higher levels (e.g., 1s before 2s). In this way, the electrons of an atom, molecule, or ion harmonize into the most stable electron configuration possible.

Which boiling point is lower an why?

DiKsa [7]

Answer:4

Explanation:

If we carefully observe the electronegativity of the elements in question

P-2.19

N-3.04

C-2.55

Si-1.9

H-2.2

SiH4 is definitely more polar than CH4 hence greater dipole forces of a higher boiling point. NH3 is more polar than PH3 hence NH3 has greater dipole forces and a higher boiling point. Electronegative differences influences the polarity of a bond. The greater the electro negativity difference between bonding atoms, the greater the dipole forces and the greater the boiling point.

What is the mass of 2.70 ×10^22 molecules of NaOH (Molar mass = 40.0 g/mol)?

Viefleur [7K]

Data:
Molar Mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Solving: <span>According to the Law Avogradro, we have in 1 mole of a substance, 6.02x10²³ atoms/mol or molecules
</span>
1 mol -------------------- 6.02*10²³ molecules
y mol -------------------- 2.70*10²² molecules

6.02*10²³y = 0.270*10²³
$y = \frac{0.270*\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!10^{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!23}}{6.02*\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!10^{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!23}}$
$\boxed{y \approx 0.04\:mol}$

Solving: <span>Find the mass value now
</span>
40 g ----------------- 1 mol of NaOH
x g ------------- 0.04 mol of NaOH

$x = 40*0.04$
$\boxed{\boxed{x = 1.6\:g}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer:
The mass is 1.6 grams

Fission and fusion are alike in many ways. However, one difference is

Annette [7]

Explanation:

Fusion vs Fission

In fission, energy is gained by splitting apart heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining light atoms, for example two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, to form the heavier helium. Both reactions release energy which, in a power plant, would be used to boil water to drive a steam generator, thus producing electricity.
