<span>I think that the coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends on THE CHANGE IN VOLUME.
Cubical expansion, also known as, volumetric expansion has the following formula:
</span>Δ V = β V₁ ΔT
V₁ = initial volume of the body
ΔT = change in temperature of the body
β = coefficient of volumetric expansion.
β is defined as the <span>increase in volume per unit original volume per Kelvin rise in temperature.
</span>
With the above definition, it is safe to assume that the <span>coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends on the change in volume, which also changes in response to the change in temperature. </span>
The aluminum atom_loses_____electrons to form an ion.
The ion that is formed is_Al³⁺_____.
aluminium has the electronic configuration as 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹
from the electronic configuration , we see that aluminium can attain stability by losing 3 electrons from outer shell.
after losing 3 electrons , the ion formed is given as Al³⁺
hence the correct options to fill in the blanks are lose and Al³⁺
Answer:Half-life is the amount of time it takes for the initial mass of the isotope to decompose, by half, into other lighter atoms.
Explanation:Different radioactive isotopes have different half-lives. For example, the element technetium-99m has a half life of 6 hours. This means that is 100 kg of the element is left to decay, in 6 hours, 50kg of the mass will have changed into other elements/atoms. The half-life of uranium-238 is 4.5 billion years while that of polonium-216 is only 0.145 seconds.
Answer:
857.5 m
2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds
Explanation:
Time taken by the sound of the thunder to reach the student = 2.5 s
Speed of sound in air is 343 m/s
Speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s
Distance travelled by the sound = Time taken by the sound × Speed of sound in air
⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 2.5×343 = 857.5 m
⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 857.5 m
Time taken by light = Distance the light travelled / Speed of light
Time taken by light = 2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds
