What causes a substance to change states of matter?
Energy causes a substance to change states of matter. A matter needs energy to melt, evaporate, boil. Remember: Energy has a sudden change, but the temperature remains absolutely the same. An example of a change in energy is when ice is melting.
Hope I helped (:
Have a great day!
Answer:
They have electrons in their 3d- and 4s-orbital for bond formation.
Explanation:
d- metals or transition metal are metal which form ion with partially filled d-orbital. Examples are iron and manganese.
The metals have 2 electrons in their 4s orbital. If only this is used for bonding, they will form compounds where they have oxidation State of +2 as seen in MnO.
If two 4s and one of 3d electrons are used, oxidation state of +3 is formed as seen in FeCl3.
If two 2s electron I used with two 3d electrons, compound with oxidation state of +4 is formed as seen in MnO2
Electron affinity is the energy released when an electron is accepted by a neutral atom forming a negative ion. Chlorine has the higher electron affinity because it readily accepts an electron to become more stable. On the other hand, sodium have to give up an electron to complete its valence shell.
This change in pressure is caused by changes in air density, and air density is related to temperature.
- From the general law of gases: PV = nRT,
where P is the pressure (atm),
V is the volume (L),
n is the number of moles,
R is the general gas constant (8.314 L.atm/mol.K),
T is the temperature in Kelvin
- at constant volume of the gas: P1T2 = P2T1
P1 = 3.20 atm, T1 = 300 K, T2 = 290 K, P2 = ??
(3.20 atm)(290 K) = P2(300 K)
P2 = (3.20 atm)(290 K)/ (300 K) = 3.093 atm
