Answer =Tsunamis because they flood places and areas
First solve the mass of 37.9 L seawater
M = 37.9 L ( 1000 ml / 1L ) ( 1.03 g / ml)
M = 39037 g
Then convert it to lb
M = 39037 g ( 1 lb / 453.592 g)
M = 86.06 lb
<span>Total weight = 86.06 lb + 59.5 lb = 145.56 lb so it can
support the aquarium</span>
Ionic bonds are formed when there is complete transfer of valence electrons between two atoms.
Electronegativity tells the trend of an atom to atract electrons.
You should search for the complete set of rules that indicate whether an ionic or covalent bond happens.
There are two relevant rules to state if whether an ionic bond will happen:
- When the difference of electronegativities between the two atoms is greater than 2.0, then the bond is ionic.
- When the difference is between 1.6 and 2.0, the bond is ionic if one of the elements is a metal.
You need to list the electronegativities of the five elements (there are tables with this information)
Element electronegativity
Cu: 1.9
H: 2.2
Cl 3.16
I: 2.66
S: 2.58
Differences:
Cu / S: 2.58 - 1.9 = 0.68
H / S: 2.58 - 2.2 = 0.38
Cl / S: 3.16 - 2.58 =0.58
I / S: 2.66 - 2.58 = 0.08
Those differences are too low to consider that the bond is ionic.
Then the answer is that none of those atoms forms an ionic bond with sulfur.
Answer:
d. Radon-222
Explanation:
²²⁶₈₈Ra → ²²²₈₆Rn + ⁴₂He
Alpha particle is a helium nucleus with mass number 4 and atomic number 2. According to the law of conversation of mass, the sum of the mass number and atomic number must be equal on both side of the reaction.
Since the mass number of Ra is 226 and that of He is 4. The mass number of the unknown element must be 226 - 4 = 222.
Since the atomic number of Ra is 88 and that of He is 2. The atomic number of the unknown element must be 88 - 2 = 86.
Now looking in the periodic table Radon is the only element with atomic number 86.
