Oliga [24]3 years ago
5 0
potential energy:
the energy possessed by a body by virtue by its position relative to others stresses within itself electric charge and other factors.
the formula for potential energy is "PE=mgh". Gravitational pull causes potential energy go change.

7. An element's most stable ion forms an ionic compound with chlorine having the formula XCl2. If the ion of element X has a mas
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The element is strontium and the number of neutrons it have is 51.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the ionic compound is,  

XCl₂ ⇔ X₂⁺ + 2Cl⁻

X2+ is the ion of the mentioned element

As mentioned in the given question, the number of electrons of the element X is 36 and as seen from the reaction the charge present on the ion is +2. Now the atomic number will be,  

No. of electrons = atomic number - charge

36 = atomic number - 2

Atomic number = 38

Based on the periodic table, the atomic number 38 is for strontium element, and the sign of strontium is Sr. Hence, the element X is Sr.  

Now based on the given information, the mass number of the element is 89. Now the no. of neutrons will be,  

No. of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

= 89 - 38

= 51 neutrons.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer: a 900 milliliter (ml) pitcher of orange juice at 20 degrees Celsius ( oC)

Explanation:

Thermal energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its temperature. The hotter the substance, the more its molecules vibrate, and therefore the higher its thermal energy.

Thermal energy refers to the sum of kinetic, potential, vibrational ,electronic and rotational energies of the object.

For bodies at same temperature, the body with more molecules will have more thermal energy due to more collisions.
