Answer:

option b. B3+

Explanation:

Boron takes the 5th position on the periodic table, therefore it has 5 electrons....2 on the inside and 3 on the outside. when it lost it 3 external electrons, it become positively charged with the amount of electron it loses.

Sheena has a lump of sodium, a lump of potassium and a lump of lithium, but they’ve got mixed up and she doesn’t know which one

Arada [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Just saw your request regarding answering this so here it is:

All of them belong of Group 1 in periodic table and thus are highly reactive! Pattern of reactivity for Group 1 (Alkali metals) increases as you move down the group as their radius keeps increasing and thus electrons can be easily lost. Thus, to ID the lumps, Sheena should look at their reactivity and she should get the following trend:

Most reactive: Potassium (K)

Intermediate: Sodium (Na)

Least reactive: Lithium (Li)

Hope it helps!

Air at 7S°F and14.6 though a cfm(cubic ft per minute) and the The flow rate is 48000 psia flows though a rectangular duct of Ix2

IgorLugansk [536]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Air is at $75^{o}F$ and 14.6 psia.

$\varepsilon$ = 0.00015 ft, Flow rate, (Q) = 48000 $ft^{3}/m$

(a) Formula to calculate hydraulic radius $(r_{H})$ is as follows.

$r_{H} = \frac{\text{free flow area}}{\text{wet perimeter}}$

= $\frac{2 \times 1}{2(1) + 2(2)}$

= $\frac{1}{3}$ ft

Formula for equivalent diameter is as follows.

$D_{eq} = 4 \times r_{H}$

= $4 \times \frac{1}{3} ft$

= $\frac{4}{3}$ ft

(b) Formula for velocity floe is as follows.

Q = VA

V = $\frac{Q}{A}$

= $\frac{48000}{2 \times 1}$ ft/min

= 24000 ft/min

(c) Formula to calculate Reynold's number is as follows.

$R_{e}$ = $\frac{D \times V \times \rho}{\mu}$

= $\frac{\frac{4}{3} \times 24000 \times 0.0744}{0.0443}$ (as $\rho = 0.0744 lb/ft^{3}$ and $\mu$ = 0.0443 lb/ft. hr)

= 53742.66 hr/min

As 1 hr = 10 min. So, $53742.66 hr/min \times \frac{60 min}{1 hr}$

= 3224559.6

(d) Formula to calculate pressure drop $(\Delta P)$ is as follows.

$\frac{\Delta P}{L} = \frac{4f \rho V^{2}}{2Dg_{c}}$

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$\frac{\Delta P}{L} = \frac{4f \rho V^{2}}{2Dg_{c}}$

= $\frac{4 \times 0.00015 \times 100 \times 0.0744 \times (24000)^{2}}{2 \times \frac{4}{3} \times {4}{3}}$

= 6.238 $lb/ft^{2}$

Are alchemy and chemistry the same

Anit [1.1K]

Are alchemy and chemistry the same: No

Explanation:

Alchemy and chemistry differ from each other. Their main difference lies in the concepts that they are based on. Alchemy has the base of viewing the reality of nature supernaturally. Chemistry has a base of viewing the reality in a natural way.

Protoscience is the name given for Alchemy. This is because that alchemy usually focuses on the traditional things like procedures and terminologies. Chemistry always focuses on the matter and their transformations. The matter and its transformations are dealt with chemistry.
