Answer:

The element with electron configuration 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ will most likely not react with an element having seven Valence electrons.

The electron configuration of the element in discuss is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

The element has enough electrons to fill it's energy level, n = 2 shell.

In essence, the element in discuss is unreactive as it has attained it's octet configuration and as such is neither in need of an electron nor ready to donate an electron.

As such, although an atom having seven Valence electrons is highly electronegative and as such is an electron attractor, the element with the full octet configuration does not react with it.

This unreactive nature of noble gases is attributed to the full octet configuration of noble gases.

P.S: The electron configuration above is the electron configuration of Neon, Ne.

A tank of oxygen with a pressure of 23 atm is moved from room temperature of 293K to a storage freezer at 239K. What is the fina

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

18.76atm

Explanation:

Using the formula V1P1/T1 = V2P2/T2, from combined gas law. Volume is constant since we have not been given. Therefore the formula comes to be; P1/T1 = P2/T1

To get P2 = T2(P1/T1)

Where P2 is final pressure

P2 = 239K ( 23atm/293K)

=18.76atm

An airplane travels 2100 km at 1000km/hE. It encounters a wind and slows to 800 km/h E for the next 1300 km. What is the average

Deffense [45]

Answer:

The average velocity of the airplane for this trip is 1684.21 km/h

Explanation:

Average velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time. That is,

Average velocity = $\frac{Displacement }{Change in time}$ = Δx / Δt = $\frac{x2 - x1}{t2 - t1}$

Now we will calculate the time taken by the airplane for the first motion before it encounters a wind.

From,

Velocity = $\frac{Distance traveled}{Time taken}$

Time = $\frac{Distance traveled}{Velocity}$

Therefore, Time = $\frac{2100km }{1000km/h}$

Time = 2.1h

This is the time taken before the airplane encounters a wind.

Hence, t1 = 2.1h

Now, For the time taken by the airplane when it encounters a wind

Also from,

Velocity = $\frac{Distance traveled}{Time taken}$

Time = $\frac{Distance traveled}{Velocity}$

Therefore, Time = $\frac{1300km }{800km/h}$

Time = 1.625h

Hence, t2 = 1.625h

Now, to calculate the average velocity

Average velocity = $\frac{x2 - x1}{t2 - t1}$

x1= 2100, x2= 1300, t1= 2.1h and t2= 1.625h

Hence, Average velocity = $\frac{1300 - 2100}{1.625 - 2.1}$

Average velocity = 1684.21 km/h

The weights of all elements are always compared to oxygen.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12.

Explanation:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12 because the mass of carbon is 12 which is the exactly the sum of protons and neutrons.

Oxygen was also considered the standard for some time but later this stander was rejected because in natural O¹⁷ and O¹⁸ were also present and this create the two different atomic mass tables.

AMU:

Atomic mass unit is define as the 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.

C12 has six neutron and six protons in the nucleus.

This unit is used to express the masses of atoms. We know that masses of atoms are very small and we do not have any such type of balance that can measure very small quantity. So that is way we use this scale to measure small quantity. For example, according to this scale

relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.008 amu

relative atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu

relative atomic mass of uranium is 238.0289 amu

relative atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453 amu
