N the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum (gains or loses)

Chemistry
1 answer:
Volgvan2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

loses, gains

Explanation:

In the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum will lose electrons while each atom of selenium will gain the electrons.

An ionic compound is an interatomic bond formed between a metal and non-metal. The metal is less electronegative compared to the non-metal. In this case, the metal will lose electrons to become positively charged whereas the non-metal, selenium will gain the electron to become negatively charged.

The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of the ionic bond.

Boyles Law P1V1 = P2V2
arsen [322]

Answer:

A. The balloons will increase to twice their original volume.

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that the pressure exerted on a gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas at constant temperature. That is:

P ∝ 1/V

P = k/V

PV = k (constant)

P = pressure, V = volume.

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Let the initial pressure of the balloon be P, i.e. P_1=P, initial volume be V, i.e. V_1=V. The pressure is then halved, i.e. P_2=\frac{P}{2}

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\P*V=\frac{P}{2} *V_2\\\\V_2=\frac{2*P*V}{P}\\\\V_2=2V

Therefore the balloon volume will increase to twice their original volume.

john dalton's original atomic theory contained the following key ideas. which part(s) of these ideas was/were incorrect?
Degger [83]

John Dalton's original atomic theory contained the following key ideas and the incorrect one is that elements are made of tiny indivisible particles called atoms and is denoted as option A.

<h3>What is Atom?</h3>

This is defined as the smallest unit of matter which forms a chemical element and Dalton proposed that it was indivisible which was later proved wrong.

It was later discovered that atom is made up of sub atomic particles such as proton, electron and neutron. This was therefore the reason why option A was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

Which methods are used to construct earthquake resistant buildings?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

shear walls, cross braces, diaphragms, and moment-resisting frames are central to reinforcing a building. Shear walls are a useful building technology that helps to transfer earthquake forces. Made of panels, these walls help a building keep its shape during movement.

Which phrases accurately describe acids? Check all that apply.
weqwewe [10]

Answer: Option 1, 4 and 5 describe acids accurately.

Explanation:

Option 1: Acids have a sour taste because of the concentration of H^+ ion.

Option 2: They are corrosive in nature, that is they are not at all gentle with the skin and fabric as some acids intend to burn skin such as H_2SO_4 is a strong acid which can burn skin as well as fabric.

Option 3: Acids need electrons to release H^+ ions and non-metals do not donate electrons hence, there is no reaction between a non-metal and an acid.

Option 4: All acids do contain hydrogen. They dissociate in the presence of water to produce H^+ ions.

                                 HCl\overset{H_2O}{\rightarrow} H^++Cl^-

Option 5: Acids do conduct electricity that is they carry electrical charges. This was explained by Arrhenius. He said that the acids dissociate into H^+ions, when it is dissolved in water. These ions hence acts as charge carriers in water.
