The atomic number is also the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of a specific element, in this case Xenon. Xenon is represented on the periodic table as Xe. Find that and look at the number in the top center of the square for Xenon. In this case, the atomic number is 54.
Answer:
The timber companies removing all the trees from entire hillside when they are harvesting logs is a practice that could cause the following when it is time to plant in spring:
1. It could affect the quality of plant needed nutrients in the soil and beneficial microorganism population in the soil which could impact negatively the planting season.
2. Trees serves as protection of soil nutrients against wind erosions, so the soil nutrients would be affected.
The farmers tilling the soil means preparing the soil for a farming season as the following effect:
1. Helps control weed for the planting season.
2. This practice could further encourage soil erosion if not done well.
3. Tilling the soil could make leftover plants from the felling of trees mix well with the soil and also add nutrients to the soil when they decay.
The concentration of hydrogen can be shown as:
[H+ ] = 3 * 10-5 M
pH can be determined as:
pH = - log [H+ ]
= - log (3 * 10-5)
= 4.53
Thus the pH of solution is 4.53
Answer:
Active transport by the Na+-K+ pump
Explanation:
Active transport by the Na+-K+ pump
Maintenance (and restoration) of the resting ion concentrations depends on the Na+-K+ pump. Once gated ion channels are closed, the combined action of the pump and ion leakage (particularly that of K+) establishes a resting membrane potential in a typical neuron of around âˆ'70 mV.
Answer:K2X
Explanation: Valency can be defined as the combining power of an element. It is the valency that dictates the value an element will have when writing a chemical formula for its compound.
MgX is a compound of magnesium and an element X. The valency of magnesium in most of its compound is +2. Now for the 2 to have been absent in the chemical formula, this shows that the element X itself have a valency if -2 for the valencies of both to have canceled out.
Now considering the element potassium, it is an alkaline metal belonging to group 1 of the periodic table. Hence, it is expected that it has a valency of +1
Forming a compound with element X means there would be an exchange of valencies between the two. We have established that x has a valency of -2. The formula of the compound thus formed by exchanging the valencies of both element would be K2X
