Answer:

c) has an irritating odor and is colorless

Explanation:

Sulfur dioxide refers to a gas. It has a nasty, sharp smell and is invisible. It associates with other components to produce harmful compounds like sulfurous acid, sulfuric acid, and sulfate particles. It is the chemical compound with the formula SO. At standard temperature, it is a toxic gas with an irritating and pungent smell. The gas is released naturally by the volcanic activity.

Suppose you have 100 grams of radioactive plutonium-239 with a half-life of 24,000 years. how many grams of plutonium-239 will r

Alexandra [31]

To solve this problem, let us first calculate for the rate constant k using the half life formula:

t1/2 = ln 2 / k

where t1/2 = half life period = 24,000 years, therefore k is:

k = ln 2 / 24,000

k = 2.89 x 10^-5 / yr

Now we use the rate equation:

A = Ao e^(-k t)

where,

A = mass of Plutonium-239 after number of years

Ao = initial mass of Plutonium-239

t = number of years

A. t = 12,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 12,000)

A = 70.7 g

B. t = 24,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 24,000)

A = 50 g

C. t = 96,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 96,000)

The diameter of a biscuit is approximately 51 millimeters (mm). An atom of bismuth (Bi) is approximately 320. picometers (pm) in

astraxan [27]

Answer:

1.5e+8 atoms of Bismuth.

Explanation:

We need to calculate the <em>ratio</em> of the diameter of a biscuit respect to the diameter of the atom of bismuth (Bi):

$\\ \frac{diameter\;biscuit}{diameter\;atom(Bi)}$

For this, it is necessary to know the values in meters for any of these diameters:

$\\ 1m = 10^{3}mm = 1e+3mm$

$\\ 1m = 10^{12}pm = 1e+12pm$

Having all this information, we can proceed to calculate the diameters for the biscuit and the atom in meters.

<h3>Diameter of an atom of Bismuth(Bi) in meters</h3>

1 atom of Bismuth = 320pm in diameter.

$\\ 320pm*\frac{1m}{10^{12}pm} = 3.20*10^{-10}m$

<h3>Diameter of a biscuit in meters</h3>

$\\ 51mm*\frac{1}{10^{3}mm} = 51*10^{-3}m = 5.1*10^{-2}m$

<h3>Resulting Ratio</h3>

How many times is the diameter of an atom of Bismuth contained in the diameter of the biscuit? The answer is the ratio described above, that is, the ratio of the diameter of the biscuit respect to the diameter of the atom of Bismuth:

$\\ Ratio_{\frac{biscuit}{atom}}= \frac{5.1*10^{-2}m}{3.20*10^{-10}m}$

$\\ Ratio_{\frac{biscuit}{atom}}= \frac{5.1}{3.20}\frac{10^{-2}}{10^{-10}}\frac{m}{m}$

$\\ Ratio_{\frac{biscuit}{atom}}= 1.5*10^{-2+10}$

$\\ Ratio_{\frac{biscuit}{atom}}= 1.5*10^{8}=1.5e+8$

In other words, there are 1.5e+8 diameters of atoms of Bismuth in the diameter of the biscuit in question or simply, it is needed to put 1.5e+8 atoms of Bismuth to span the diameter of a biscuit in a line.

Look at the dots around each symbol and the energy levels from the resources above;

Anton [14]

Hello! Here's the answer I was able to come up with:

Sodium, or Na, has only one valence electron. (This makes the atom tend to participate in ionic bonding and "give" its single valence electron to an atom like chlorine.)

<em>Why do none of these diagrams show more than 8 dots?</em>

It is physically impossible for an atom to have more than 8 electrons in its valence layer, according to the Octet Rule.

<em>What relationship do you notice between the dots in these two charts?</em>

The dot diagram for each element represents the number of electrons each element will have in its outermost, or valence, shell. (2-8-8)

<em>The number of dots that hydrogen and helium have in their dot diagram is the same as the number of electrons shown for them on the Periodic Table. Why?</em>

An atom can have a maximum of two electrons in its innermost layer. Hydrogen and helium have only one and two electrons, respectively, so they don't have enough electrons to actually have more than one layer. Therefore, their outermost layer is, in fact, their only layer. This is why the number of dots that hydrogen and helium have in their dot diagram is the same as the number of electrons shown for them on the Periodic Table.
