As the pendulum moves from point 2 to point 3, what happens to its mechanical energy?potential energy is converted to kinetic en
ahrayia [7]

Answer: Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy and back again.

Explanation:At points 1 and 3, the pendulum stops moving, and its mechanical energy is purely potential. At point 2, the pendulum is moving the fastest, and its mechanical energy is purely kinetic. Therefore, as the pendulum moves from point 1 to point 3, its potential energy is first converted to kinetic energy, then back to potential.

O2- is the Lewis ______ in the following reaction
matrenka [14]

O^{2-} is the Lewis base in the following reaction:

SO_3(g) + O^{2-}(aq)   →  SO_4^{2-}(aq)

<h3>What is lewis base? </h3>

Lewis base is a species that donates an electron pair.

In the above-given chemical equation, the O^{2-}is the lewis base which is donating an electron pair to the central atom of SO_3 to form SO_4^{-2}.

Hence, O^{2-} is the Lewis base in the following reaction:

SO_3(g) + O^{2-}(aq)   →  SO_4^{2-}(aq)

Why is oxygen diflouride a gas at room temperature?
atroni [7]

Answer:

Oxygen is a simple molecular structure, where individual oxygen atoms are bonded to each other by strong covalent bonds. Hence, a low amount of energy is required to overcome these weak forces and oxygen has a low boiling point. Therefore, at room temperature, oxygen is a gas. Oxygen difluoride is a colorless gas, condensable to a pale yellow liquid, with a slightly irritating odor. It is the most stable of the compounds of fluorine and oxygen, which include O,F,, O,F, and 0,F2 but nevertheless it is a strong oxidizing and fluorinating agent. Oxygen Difluoride is a colorless gas or a yellowish-brown liquid with a foul odor. Just to finally link Joseph's answer to the question, oxygen difluoride will thus change from liquid to solid state when chilled from -220°c to -230°c. The boiling point of oxygen is -182.96 degrees Celsius (under 1 standard atmosphere). This means at temperatures below that point, oxygen is a solid or a liquid, and at temperatures above that point, oxygen is a gas. So at -183 degrees Celsius, oxygen is a liquid.
