Answer:

actually answer should be helium

Answer:

Fluorine

Explanation:

Fluorine has an atomic number of 9

Iron's is 26

Phosphorus = 15

Potassium = 19

Fluorine has the smallest number of protons, and as it is an atom, the number of protons = the number of electrons. As it has less electrons, it only has 2 shells, whereas all the other elements here have 3+ shells. This means it will have a smaller atomic radius than them.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

A pan containing 40 grams of water was allowed to cool from a temperature of 91.0C. If the amount of heat repressed is 1,300 jou
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

83°C

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question:

M = 40g

C = 4.2J/g°C

T1 = 91°C

T2 =?

Q = 1300J

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/CM

ΔT = 1300/(4.2x40)

ΔT = 8°C

But ΔT = T1 — T2 (since the reaction involves cooling)

ΔT = T1 — T2

8 = 91 — T2

Collect like terms

8 — 91 = —T2

— 83 = —T2

Multiply through by —1

T2 = 83°C

The final temperature is 83°C

If element selenium would react to form and ion, what would its most like charge be, based on its location within periodic table
aksik [14]

Explanation:

Earlier, we located the valence electrons for elements Z < 20 by drawing modified Bohr structures. We can obtain these values quicker by referring to the roman numeral numbers above each family on the periodic table. The total number of valence electrons for an atom can vary between one and eight. If an element is located on the left side of the table (metal) and has less than three valence electrons, it will lose its valence in order to become stable and achieve an octet. In contrast, elements on the right side of the table (nonmetals) will gain up to eight electrons to achieve octet status.

The temperature in a beaker of water is 50 degrees Celsius. Kiley puts the water into a freezer. After a few minutes, she measur
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

This question lacks options; the options are:

A) They moved more freely

B) They moved closer together.

C) The average speed increased.

D) The average kinetic energy increased

The answer is B

Explanation:

The water in the beaker is described to be in a liquid state of matter. Its temperature decreases from 50°C to 10°C when placed in a freezer by Kiley. This means that heat is gradually being lost as the liquid water undergoes freezing into a solid state.

When water in a liquid state is freezed, it's molecules, which were moving more freely begin to move closer together because the speed at which the particles in the liquid state moved has been reduced.
