Answer:
Number of protons
Explanation:
There are three sub atomic particles. These are;
- Protons
- Electrons
- Neutrons
Among these three particles, only one determines the identity of the element. This is the Protons. The number of protons which is also called the atomic number determines the identity of an element. For instance, atom with one proton is Hydrogen and n other element can have atomic number of one.
Answer:
Because of oxygen toxicity.
Explanation:
Oxygen toxicity.
Oxygen has been known to cause central nervous system (CNS) toxicity when the pressure gets higher. This toxicity can cause convulsions, and this can cause the diver to drown.
The current standard maximum safe oxygen working pressure is 1.4 atm ppO2. This is equal to 56.5m/185′ when breathing air (21% O2 / 79% N). Below that depth the fraction of oxygen in a breathing gas must be reduced, and in order to maintain this maximum pressure of 1.4 ppO2, Helium must be added.
Answer:
He will decide which drink is to be served to whom, by the use of litmus paper.
Explanation:
The litmus paper is the most common indicator to determine the acidity or basicity of a solution. Blue litmus paper changes its color to red when a solution changes from basic to acidic while red litmus paper changes its color to blue when the opposite occurs (acid → basic).
First of all the litmus paper strip, pH indicator, is immersed in a solution and allowed to pass between 10 and 15 seconds while keeping the strip submerged. Afterwards it is removed, and then the strip compares the color. If the color is diffuse, there is a color scale where it is determined which solution has alkaline or acidic pH
Answer:
N2O2(g) +O2(g) ===> 2NO2(g)
Explanation:
For a nonelementary reaction, the reaction equation is described as the sum of all the steps involved. All these steps constitute the reaction mechanism. Each step in the mechanism is an elementary reaction. The rate law of the overall reaction involves the rate determining step (slowest step) in the reaction sequence.
Now look at the overall reaction 2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)
The two steps in the mechanism are
2NO(g) --------->N2O2(g) (fast)
N2O2(g) +O2(g) -------> 2NO2(g) (slow)
Summing all the steps and cancelling out the intermediate N2O2(g), we obtain the reaction equation;
2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)
Hence the answer.
