The correct answer is gonna be C) A lithium cation ion is smaller
A lithium cation has lost its valence electrons, which causes the remaining electrons to be pulled in stronger by the positive charge in the nucleus. As they get closer to the nucleus, the overall size of the atom is decreased.
Answer:
Explanation:
The element V forms acidic oxide so it must be non- metal because oxides of non metal forms acidic oxide like sulphur ( s ) or chlorine ( Cl₂ )
sulphur forms SO₂ or SO₃ . Chlorine forms acidic oxide like Cl₂O₇ , Cl₂O₃ etc
These oxides are covalent compounds .
So V may have 6 or 7 electrons in the outermost orbit .
Hence option D is the right answer.
Answer:
The correct statements are:
The rate of disappearance of B is twice the rate of appearance of C.
Explanation:
Rate of the reaction is a change in the concentration of any one of the reactant or product per unit time.
3A + 2B → C + 2D
Rate of the reaction:
![R=-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{d[B]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=R%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BA%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BB%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{d[A]}{dt}=\frac{1}{1}\times \frac{d[C]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BA%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B1%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BC%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)

The rate of disappearance of B is twice the rate of appearance of C.

Answer:
removes the fertile B horizon of soil
Explanation:
<em>Wind erosion has the capacity to remove the fertile B horizon of the soil.</em>
The term wind erosion generally refers to the capacity of high-magnitude wind to cause damages to the terrestrial environment. Soils can get their topmost layers removed by a strong wind if there are no barriers such as vegetation to break the speed of the wind.
The topmost layers in most cases consist of humus and the fertile minerals from parent materials. When the topmost layer is lost, the soil becomes unproductive for agriculture.
