The "dots" in a electron dot structure (Lewis Dot) represent the following:

Which change of state is shown in the model?

Romashka [77]

I believe the change of state shown in the model is deposition.
Deposition is a process in which gases change phase and turns directly in solids without passing through the liquid phase. It is the opposite of sublimation.
One of the major difference between gases and solids is the distance between molecules; in gases the inter molecular spaces are large, while in solid they are very small, making solids be the most dense, with closely packed molecules. This is evident in the diagram, the phase changed from gases to solids.

To determine the absolute age of rocks and fossils, geologists use _____.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The rates of decay of radioactive elements

Explanation:

The age of a rock in years is called its absolute age. Geologists find absolute ages by measuring the amount of certain radioactive elements in the rock. When rocks are formed, small amounts of radioactive elements usually get included.

2. In Experiment SOL, you investigated the solubility of oxalic acid. Sodium oxalate, Na2C2O¬4, is the sodium salt of this acid.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Sodium oxalate is a basic salt. In water it can be dissolved and dissociated.

The oxalic acid in water has two dissociations.

Explanation:

Na2C2O4 ---> 2Na+ + C2O4-2

Sodium oxalate is the conjugate base of a weak acid. In water this salt, dissociates completely giving rise to the sodium and oxalate ions. As Na+ comes from a strong base, in water it does not produce hydrolysis while oxalate does react in water, because it takes a proton from it and it generates a basic hydrolysis releasing OH-.

C2O4-2 + H2O ⇄ HC2O4- + OH-

In water the salt is basic. The pH of an aqueous solution of this salt is basic, since OH- is generated.

The HC2O4- has a second hydrolisis, it takes another proton from water to form oxalic acid.

HC2O4- + H2O ⇄ H2C2O4 + OH-

The oxalic acid acts as a weak acid, it can release 2 protons to water, to make oxalate (its conjugate base).

H2C2O4 + H2O ⇄ H3O+ + HC2O4-

HC2O4- + H2O ⇄ H3O+ C2O4-2

The HC2O4- acts as an ampholyte since it accepts and delivers protons simultaneously.

What is the difference between alkali metals and halogens?

Airida [17]

<h3>→soft and reactive metals. </h3>

Explanation:

<h3>Alkali metals are soft and reactive metals. They react vigorously with water and become more reactive. And other hand halogens are reactive non metals. ... Halogens can be solid, liquid, gaseous at room temperature and the melting point increase when they get bigger.</h3>

The degree of unsaturation, or index of hydrogen deficiency, is the number of pi bonds plus rings in a molecule. Specify the deg

yaroslaw [1]

Explanation:

The degree of unsaturation is given as;

Degree of unsaturation = (2C + 2 + N - H - X) / 2

(a) C5H6

Using the formular above;

Degree of unsaturation = [ 2(5) + 2 - 6] / 2

Degree of unsaturation = [ 12 - 6 ] / 2 = 3

(b) C10H6Cl2

Using the formular above;

Degree of unsaturation = [ 2(10) + 2 - 6 -2 ] / 2

Degree of unsaturation = [ 22 - 8 ] / 2 = 7

(c) C4H3NO

Using the formular above;

Degree of unsaturation = [ 2(4) + 2 - 3 -1 ] / 2

Degree of unsaturation = [ 10 - 4 ] / 2 = 3

Note: Oxygen is ignored because its presence has no effect on the degree of unsaturation.
