The initial momentum of the boy is 0 kgm/s the right option is A. 0 kgm/s.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. The S.I unit of momentum is kgm/s.

The initial momentum of the boy can be calculated using the formula below.

Formula:

M' = mu

Where:

M = Initial momentum of the boy

From the question,

Given:

M = mass of the boy = 60 kg
U = Initial velocity of the boy = 0 m/s (at rest)

Substitute these values into equation 1

M = 60(0)
M = 0 kgm/s

Hence, The initial momentum of the boy is 0 kgm/s the right option is A. 0 kgm/s.

Describe what happens when a bond is created between magnesium and bromine. Be specific and explain in terms of electrons.

Allushta [10]

Answer: Magnesium and Bromine/MgBr2 = Ionic compounds

Explanation: When atoms form together they can form between Ionic Compounds and molecules; this could depend on if they're joined by Covalent bonds as well because when atoms form with Covalent bonds, it forms Molecules.

Ahat [919]

Option (i) would have the highest 2nd Ionization Energy.

Option (i) is Sodium.

Can be Written as 2, 8 , 1

For its 1st Ionization energy... It'd be extremely easy to remove that Electron cos its on the outermost shell.

Now After Removing that Electron...

Sodium's Electronic Configuration Reduces to that of Neon Which is 2, 8.

Neon has a very stable Octet.

It would take an ENORMOUS amount of energy to break its Octet stability... that is... Remove 1 electron from its Octet.

Option (i) [Sodium] has the highest 2nd Ionization Energy

Una disolución contiene 40% de ácido acético en masa. La densidad de la disolución es de 1.049 g/mL a 20°C. Calcule la masa de á

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

52.45g

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of pure acetic acid in 125mL of this solution is shown below:

The percentage of mass would be equivalent to the g of solute in each 100g of water

As we know that

density = mass ÷ volume

So,

Volume = mass ÷ density

V = 100g / 1.049 (g / ml)

V = 95.328 mL

Now In every 95,328 ml of C_2H_4O_2 there are 40g of C_2H_4O_2

i.e.

each 125ml of C_2H_4O_2 there are 52.45g

SO,

x = 40g. 125ml ÷ 95.328

x = 52.45g
