An atom of which of the elements most likely forms a anion? The answer is B
Papessa [141]3 years ago
4 0
The answer is B. A good way determine this is how far right the element is on the periodic table. The further right the element is, the more electronegative it is meaning it is more willing to accept an electron. This can be explained using the valence electrons and how many need to be added or removed to complete the octet. The further right you are, the easier it is for the element to just gain a few electrons instead of loose a bunch. Noble gases are the exception to this since they don't normally react though.

15.0 mL of an unknown clear liquid is added to a 50 mL graduated cylinder. The mass of the liquid is determined to be 12.7 grams
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt A. \ d=0.85 \ g/mL}

Explanation:

Density is found by dividing the mass by the volume.

d=\frac{m}{v}

The mass of the liquid is 12.7 grams.

We know that 15 mL of this liquid was added to a 50 mL graduated cylinder. Therefore, the volume is 15 mL. The 50 mL is not relevant, it only tells us about the graduated cylinder.

m= 12.7 \ g\\v= 15 \ mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

d=\frac{12.7 \ g}{ 15 mL}

Divide.

d=0.846666667 \ g/mL

Round to the nearest hundredth. The 6 in the tenth place tells us to round the 4 to a 5.

d \approx 0.85 \ g/mL

The density of the liquid is about 0.85 grams per milliliter and choice A is correct.

How many grams of NaCl (molecular weight = 58.4 g mole-1) would you dissolve in water to make a total volume of 500 mL of soluti
kolezko [41]

Given :

Volume , V = 500 mL .

Molarity , M = 0.5 M .

Molecular mass of NaCl is 58.4\ g/mole .

To Find :

How many grams of NaCl is required .

Solution :

Let , NaCl required is x gram .

Molarity is given by :

M=\dfrac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume (in liters) }}\\\\M=\dfrac{m}{M\times V}\\\\0.5=\dfrac{x}{58.4\times 0.5}\\\\x=0.5^2\times 58.4\ g\\\\x=14.6\ g

Hence , this is the required solution.

A ball is rolling across the floor. Every 3 seconds it travels 12 meters. Its speed, therefore, is 36 m/s. Is this problem solve
kirill [66]
No because you are supposed to do this

d = t)v
T for time and V for velocity or acceleration so what you do is take the two numbers

D= 3/12 it goes 12 meters every 3 seconds so you devide 12/3
12 \div 3 = 4
So for every second the ball roles 4 meters!
Hope this helps! :)

The enthalpy of fusion of methanol (CH3OH) is 3.16 kJ/mol. How much heat would be absorbed or released upon freezing 25.6 grams
Verdich [7]

Answer:

There is  2.52 kJ of energy released (option 4)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The enthalpy of fusion of methanol (CH3OH) is 3.16 kJ/mol

Mass of methanol = 25.6 grams

Molar mass of methanol = 32.04 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of methanol

Moles methanol = mass methanol / molar mass methanol

Moles methanol = 25.6 grams / 32.04 g/mol

Moles methanol = 0.799 moles

Step 3: Calculate energy transfer

Energy  transfer = moles * enthalpy of fusion

Energy = 0.799 moles * 3.16 kJ/mol

Energy = 2.52 kJ released

There is  2.52 kJ of energy released

Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes. The most common, magnesium-24, accounts for nearly 80% of the magnesium found
Hitman42 [59]

Answer : There are mainly three isotopes of magnesium found in nature; namely Mg-24, Mg-25 and Mg-26. Out of which Mg-24 has 12 neutrons, Mg-25 has 13 neutrons and Mg-26 has 14 neutrons in their atoms. The number of protons and their atomic masses remains the same for the atom. The relative abundance in nature differs for all the three isotopes. Mg-24 has abundance nearly 80% in nature, Mg-25 has abundance as 10% and Mg-26 has 11.01% abundance.
