3 0

Answer:

Uranium-238 or lead-206 are most often used to date rocks. ... Carbon-14's half-life is much too long to use for dating rocks. C) The half life of carbon-14 is about 5700 years and is too short date rocks. D) Carbon-14 is only found in living things; it can only be used to date remains

24. Element X has five valence electrons, element Y has one valence electron, and element Z has one valence electron. Which two
natka813 [3]
Elements Y and elements Z would have similar properties due to the fact that they both posses the same number of valence electrons. They both have a single valence electron that determines the corresponding elements bonding properties and the fact that it can either donate 1 valence electron to produce an ion that would be attracted to another atom, that is also an ion. Assuming that these elements are group 1 elements, they do not undergo in covalent bonding.

Which statement explains why carbon dioxide (CO2) is a gas at room temperature? A. There are constant interactions between the C
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

B) There are weak interactions between the CO2 molecules.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is composed of one carbon atom that is structured between two atoms of oxygen, they are bonded with double bond and the CO2 is symmetrical because of the arrangement of the bond between them.It is less electronegative than Oxgen, this gives Oxgen the ability to attract the electron to themselves, and there is no intermolecular existing within carbon dioxide other bands waal forces.Compounds that are gases under the condition of room temperatures, and pressure usually have have small molecules. and their molecules is usually have van der Waals forces acting between them and theses forces are weak.This allows carbon dioxide molecules to be able to move freely as a gas.

Aluminum hydroxide + nitric acid ➡ aluminum nitrate + water
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Chemical equation:

HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃   →  Al(NO₃)₃ + H₂O

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃   →  Al(NO₃)₃ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

3HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃   →  Al(NO₃)₃ + 3H₂O

Ionic equation:

3H⁺ + 3NO⁻₃(aq) + Al(OH)₃(s)   →  Al³⁺(aq) + 3NO₃⁻¹(aq) + 3H₂O(l)

Net ionic equation:

Al(OH)₃(s)  +  3H⁺(aq)     →  Al³⁺(aq) +  3H₂O(l)

The NO⁻₃ are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The water can not be splitted into ions because it is present in liquid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.
