Answer:

Explanation:

I searched it up:

"The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that the exact position and momentum of an electron cannot be simultaneously determined. This is because electrons simply don't have a definite position, and direction of motion, at the same time! ... We know the direction of motion."

Hope this helps :D

What is the molarity of a solution of 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution?
jekas [21]

Answer:

1.72 M

Explanation:

Molarity is the molar concentration of a solution. It can be calculated using the formula a follows:

Molarity = number of moles (n? ÷ volume (V)

According to the information provided in this question, the solution has 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution.

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of MgCl2 = 24 + 35.5(2)

= 24 + 71

= 95g/mol

mole = 58.7g ÷ 95g/mol

mole = 0.618mol

Volume of solution = 359ml = 359/1000 = 0.359L

Molarity = 0.618mol ÷ 0.359L

Molarity = 1.72 M

Sort the following elements in order from least reactive to most reactive.
SVEN [57.7K]

Sorting the chemical elements in order from least reactive to most reactive, we have:

1. Fluorine (F).

2. Arsenic (As).

3. Antimony (Sb).

4. Silicon (S).

<u>Given the following chemical elements:</u>

  • Antimony (Sb).
  • Silicon (S).
  • Fluorine (F).
  • Arsenic (As).

Reactivity can be defined as a chemical property which determines how readily a chemical element <u>bonds</u> with other chemical elements, in order to form a new chemical compound.

Generally, the ability of a chemical element to bond with other chemical elements is largely (highly) dependent on the number of valence electrons it has in the outermost shell of its atomic nucleus.

As a general rule, chemical elements that are having <u>fewer</u> number of valence electrons are the most reactive while those having <u>higher</u> valence electrons are least reactive.

Also, chemical reactivity <u>decreases</u> down a group on the periodic table.

Based on the periodic table, the valency for the given chemical elements are:

  • <u>Antimony (Sb):</u> 5 valence electrons.
  • <u>Silicon (S):</u> 4 valence electrons.
  • <u>Fluorine (F):</u> 7 valence electrons.
  • <u>Arsenic (As):</u> 5 valence electrons.

In conclusion, sorting the chemical elements in order from least reactive to most reactive, we have:

1. Fluorine (F).

2. Arsenic (As).

3. Antimony (Sb).

4. Silicon (S).

A lab is done using different metals and the density of the metals are recorded in a data table. What is the independent variabl
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:   The independent variable is the type of metal being used.

{Note:  The "dependent variable" is the "measured density" that corresponds to each of the metals."}.

___________________________________________

Explanation:

___________________________________________

The "independent variable", which is plotted on the "x-axis" (horizontal axis), is the variable that can be "controlled/manipulated".  In this case, this would be the type of metal chosen.

The "dependent variable" , which is plotted on the "y-axis" (vertical axis) is the "obtained value/measurement/result" (that "cannot be controlled/manipulated").

In this case, the "density", which is the "measured value" that corresponds to the selected "meal", is the "dependent variable".

___________________________________________

Hope this helpful to you!

   Wishing you well!

Complete the three words. The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has g....................... , l.............
fgiga [73]

Answer:Gained, Lost , Shared

Explanation:

The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has GAINED.................. , LOST....................... , or SHARED........................ , in forming a compound.

Oxidation state is defined as the  the total number of electrons that an atom gains or loses when forming a chemical bond with another atom.

----To form an ionic bond for example in NaCl, Na, with 11 electrons and one valence electron in its outermost shell donates or lose that valence electron to Chlorine  with 17 electron and 7 in its outermost shell. Therefore Sodium, Na acquires the +1 oxidaton state to become stable and Chlorine acquires the -1 oxidation state  to become stable  forming the  NaCl compound.

To form a covalent compound, There must be sharing of electrons between atoms.For example, in PCl3,  The  phosphorous atom with atomic number 15 shares its three unpaired electrons with the single valence electrons of three chlorine atoms. making the four molecules to attain stability with  Phosphorous having +3 and the chlorine atoms having -1 oxidation states
