2. How many of the heavier elements do we know of?

1 answer:

4 0

A heavy element is an element with an atomic number greater than 92. The first heavy element is neptunium (Np), which has an atomic number of 93. Some heavy elements are produced in reactors, and some are produced artificially in cyclotron experiments.

A compound formed from titanium and oxygen has the formula TiO2. Which of the following is true about the ratio of number Ti and

Finger [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are some basic laws that guide the combination of elements chemically. These are the law of conservation of mass, law of definite proportion, law of multiple proportion and the law of reciprocal proportion.

For this question, the useful law to use is the law of definite proportion. Here, it is stated that no matter the method of preparation or source of preparation, the elements of a chemical compound are always present in a fixed ratio.

What this means that at any point in time, the compound titanium dioxide contains one atom of titanium and two atoms of oxygen. This means that both atoms are present at all times in a proportion of 1 to 2 .

Substance X has a fixed volume, and the attraction between its particles is strong. Substance Y has widely spread out particles

enot [183]

Among the choices given, the correct answer is the first option. Substance X most likely is a crystal, and substance Y most likely is a liquid. Substance X having a fixed volume describes a crystal because crystals occupy a certain volume. Substance Y is a liquid because liquids can still be compressed further in order to attain a more packed <span>structure.</span>

Marizza181 [45]

This is a incomplete question. The complete question is:

It takes 348 kJ/mol to break a carbon-carbon single bond. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-carbon single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon. Round your answer to correct number of significant digits

Answer: 344 nm

Explanation:

$E=\frac{Nhc}{\lambda}$

E= energy = 348kJ= 348000 J (1kJ=1000J)

N = avogadro's number = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js
$

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8ms^{-1}$

$348000=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{348000}$

$\lambda=3.44\times 10^{-7}m=344nm$ $1nm=10^{-9}m$

Thus the maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-carbon single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon is 344 nm

Which of the following a true statement about igneous rocks?

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

i think the answer is A....

Explanation:

Igneous rocks (from the Latin word for fire) form when hot, molten rock crystallizes and solidifies. The melt originates deep within the Earth near active plate boundaries or hot spots, then rises toward the surface.
