Why is oxygen more chemically reactive than nitrogen?

Physics
2 answers:
grin007 [14]3 years ago

Answer:

O2 has two more electrons compared to N2, with extra 2 electrons in the higher energy anti-bonding orbitals known as Diradical. These electrons have higher energy and are unpaired; therefore, O2 is more reactive

Answer:

O B. Oxygen needs to gain only 2 electrons to have a full octet, while nitrogen needs to gain 3.

When you jump, you push down on the earth and it pushes back up against you. The earth pushing up against you is what causes you
MissTica

That's a great question !

The answer is:<em> It does !</em>

A push on an object causes the object to <u><em>accelerate</em></u> in the direction of the force.  

The <em>less</em> mass the object has, the <em>more</em> the force accelerates it.

Now, when you jump, the forces on you and on the Earth are equal forces.

The up force on you causes you to accelerate up by some amount.

The down force on the Earth causes the Earth to accelerate down by some amount.

The Earth's mass is something like 5,972,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg, while your mass is something like 50 kg.

The Earth has something like 119,400,000,000,000,000,000,000 <em>times</em> as much mass as you have.

So your acceleration is something like 119,400,000,000,000,000,000,000 <em>times as great as the Earth's acceleration.</em>

==> The Earth's downward acceleration, caused by your jump, is there.  It's just too small to notice.

<em>BUT . . .</em> That's the reason why seismometers (instruments to detect and measure the vibrations from distant earthquakes) have to be located as far as possible from cities and busy roads.

In places that are too close to cities and roads, the Earth's surface is always vibrating, wiggling, jiggling, heaving and weaving, in reaction to the forces of people walking around, cars and trucks driving around, even rain falling down.  And kids jumping up and down !  

In such places, these people-motions are louder and stronger than the vibrations coming from distant earthquakes.  Seismometers wouldn't work there.

What other factor affected the gravitational force between the two objects in this simulation?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled. increases, the force of gravity decreases
