Answer:Easter Islanders Didn't Cause Ecological Disaster on Their Island, New Research Finds. New research provides evidence contrary to the widely-held belief that the prehistoric population of Easter Island (Rapa Nui) caused an ecological disaster through rapid deforestation and over-exploitation of natural resources.

We can get the mass of the lead metal by calculating the difference between the Mass of evaporating dish and lead metal and the mass of empty evaporating dish. The mass of lead metal is 1.9627 grams. The mass of sulfide is obtained by calculating the difference between Mass of evaporating dish and lead sulfide and the mass of evaporating dish and lead metal. The mass of sulfur added is 0.558 grams. We convert masses to moles. Lead is 0.0093 moles while sulfur is 0.017 moles. We divide each with the less amount between the two. Hence, lead is 1 an sulfur 1.83 or 2. The formula is PbS2 or lead (IV) sulfide.

A well-insulated, closed device claims to be able to compress 100 mol of propylene, acting as a SoaveRedlich-Kwong gas and with
Setler79 [48]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Moles of propylene = 100 moles,    T_{i} = 300 K

    T_{f} = 800 K,    V_{i} = 2 m^{3}

    V_{f} = 0.02 m^{3},   C_{p} of propylene = 100 J/mol

Now, we assume the following assumptions:

Since, it is a compression process therefore, work will be done on the system. And, work done will be equal to the heat energy liberating without any friction.

            W = mC_{p} \Delta T

     100 moles \times 100 J/mol K (800 - 300) K

                 = 5 \times 10^{6} J

                 = 5 MJ

Thus, we can conclude that a minimum of 5 MJ work is required without any friction.

When a 3.80 g sample of magnesium nitride (MW 101g/mol) is reacted with 3.30 g of water, 3.60 g of MgO is formed. What is the pe
lianna [129]
  The  percent   yield  of  this   reaction  is  calculated  as  follows
  Mg3N2  +  3H2O  =2NH3  +  3Mgo

  calculate  the   theoretical  yield,
moles=mass/molar  mass
moles Mg3N2=  3.82  g/100g/mol=  0.0382  moles(limiting  regent)

moles of  H2o=  7.73g/18g/mol  = 0.429  moles ( in  excess_)

by  use   of  mole  ratio   between  Mg3N2  to  MgO  which  is  1:3   the    moles  of MgO =  0.0382  x3  = 0.1146  moles
mass =moles  x molar  mass

the  theoretical  mass  is therefore =  0.1146mole  x  40  g/mol  =  4.58 grams

The %  yield  =  actual  mass/theoretical  mass  x1000

=  3.60/4.584  x100=  78.5%

How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?
AnnZ [28]

The answers to the questions are as follows;

  1. It would gain three electrons
  2. The difference in their electronegativities.
  3. The elements have filled Valence levels
  4. potassium (K) with a 1+ charge
  5. ClO-

Question 1:

  • How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?

Since Nitrogen has 5 Valence electrons, it needs 3 electrons to attain it's octet configuration. As such, it gains 3 electrons.

Question 2:

  • Which quantity determines how two atoms bond.

The quantity which determines how two atoms bond is The difference in their electronegativities.

Question 3:

  • Which statement best explains why the elements in Group 18 do not have electronegativity values.

This is because the elements have filled Valence levels.

Question 4:

  • Based on patterns in the periodic table, which ion has a stable valence electron configuration

The ion which has a stable Valence electron configuration is potassium (K) with a 1+ charge

Question 5;

  • Which chemical formula represents a polyatomic ion?

The chemical formula which represents a polyatomic ion is; ClO-
