What is the valency of water​

Chemistry
1 answer:
just olya [345]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

In the water molecule oxygen combines with two hydrogens and so has a valency of 2. A simple diagram of a water molecule makes this plain. The hydrogen atoms are each sharing one pair of electrons - they have a valency of 1. The oxygen atom is sharing two pairs of electrons - it has a valency of 2.

What is pressure in relation to a gas?
labwork [276]

The pressure of a gas is the force that a gas exerts per unit area of the container.

Pressure is defined as force per unit area. Gas molecules are constantly colliding against the walls of the container. The pressure of the gas is the force the gas is exerting on its container.

Since temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a gas then the higher the temperature, the faster the particles move.

The volume of a container refers the size if the container.

The pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume according to Boyle's law. Thus implies that if the pressure of the gas goes up, the volume has to go down.

For a compound to be called an acid, it must contain H+ and H3O+ when dissolved in water.

For a compound to be called a base, the compound must dissolve in water to yield hydroxide ions.

Which of the following is a value of biodiversity?
Sever21 [200]
Biodiversity has a fundamental value to humans because we are so dependent on it for our cultural, economic, and environmental well-being. Some argue that it is our moral responsibility to preserve the Earth’s incredible diversity for the next generation. Others simply like knowing that nature’s great diversity exists and that the opportunity to utilize it later, if need be, is secure. Scientists value biodiversity because it offers clues about natural systems that we are still trying to understand. Arguably, the greatest value to humans, however, comes from the ?ecosystem services? it provides.

Biodiversity forms the backbone of viable ecosystems on which we depend on for basic necessities, security, and health. By breaking down plant and animal matter, for example, insects and other invertebrates make nutrients available to plants and are integral to the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Other species pollinate crops, an essential service for farmers. Healthy ecosystems can mitigate or prevent flooding, erosion, and other natural disasters. These ecosystem services also play a hand in the functioning of our climate and in both air and water quality.

Three isotopes of argon occur in nature – 36 18Ar, 38 18Ar, 40 18Ar. Calculate the average atomic mass of argon to two decimal p
likoan [24]

Answer: 3) 39.96 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope Ar- 36 = 35.97 amu

% abundance of isotope Ar- 36= 0.337% = \frac{0.337}{100}=3.37\times 10^{-3}

Mass of isotope Ar- 38 = 37.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 0.063 % = \frac{0.063}{100}=6.3\times 10^{-4}

Mass of isotope Ar- 40 = 39.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 99.600 % = \frac{99.600}{100}=0.996

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

A=\sum[(35.97\times 3.37\times 10^{-3})+(37.96\times 6.3\times 10^{-4})+(39.96\times 0.996)]

A=39.96amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of argon is 39.96 amu
