An atom of which of the elements most likely forms a anion? The answer is B
Papessa [141]3 years ago

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.

What is the half-life of an isotope that decays to 6.25% of its original activity in 18.9 hours?
inessss [21]
Radioactive material obeys 1st order decay kinetics,
For 1st order reaction, we have 
k = \frac{2.303}{t}Xlog \frac{\text{initial conc.}}{\text{final conc.}}
where, k = rate constant of reaction

Given: Initial conc. 100, Final conc. = 6.25, t = 18.9 hours

∴ k = \frac{2.303}{18.9} X log \frac{100}{6.25} = 0.1467 hours^(-1)

Now, for 1st order reactions: half life = \frac{0.693}{k} =  \frac{0.693}{0.1467} = 4.723 hours.

Bromine, a liquid at room temperature has a boiling point of 58 degrees celsius and a melting point at -7.2 degree celsius bromi
ra1l [238]

Hello!


Bromine can be classified as a pure substance.


Why?


Bromine is an element with atomic number 35 on group 17 of the Periodic Table. That's the first sign that shows us that it is a pure substance.


But the fact that it has a clear and defined boiling and melting point is a sign that we are in the presence of a pure substance. Pure substances are characterized by defined boiling and melting points.


Mixtures usually have a range of temperatures in which they melt and boil.


Have a nice day!

When a 120 g sample of aluminum absorbs 9612 of heat energy, its temperature increases from 25°C to 115°C. Find the specific hea
lesantik [10]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.89 J/g°C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Quantity of heat

We are given;

  • Mass of the aluminium sample is 120 g
  • Quantity of heat absorbed by aluminium sample is 9612 g
  • Change in temperature, ΔT = 115°C - 25°C

                                                      = 90°C

We are required to calculate the specific heat capacity;

  • We need to know that the quantity of heat absorbed is calculated by the product of mass, specific heat capacity and change in temperature.

That is;

Q = m × c × ΔT

  • Therefore, rearranging the formula we can calculate the specific heat capacity of Aluminium.

Specific heat capacity, c = Q ÷ mΔT

                                         = 9612 J ÷ (120 g × 90°C)

                                         = 0.89 J/g°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of Aluminium is  0.89 J/g°C
