Moving from the element with atomic number 10 to atomic number 11 on the periodic table, there is a change in reactivity. In thr
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ne has its outside shell full of electrons; therefore, its reaction with other elements is minimal if at all. Na, the next element, has 1 more proton and 1 more electron. More importantly that added electron is in the outside shell. It can fill that shell by ADDing 7 more electrons or LOSing the one electron. Obviously, it loses the one electron and it does so with gusto which makes Na a very reaction element while Ne is not reactive at all. Now follow oobleck's instructions, add what you read to what I've written,then summarize all of it in your own words.

A gas has a volume of 8.21 mL and exerts a pressure of 2.9 atm. What new volume will the gas have if the pressure is changed to
labwork [276]

Answer:

5.95 ml

Explanation:

Given info

P1=2.9 atm

V1=8.21 ml

P2=4 atm

From Boyle's law we know that p1v1=p2v2 where p and v are pressure and volume respectively. This is at a constant temperature. Making v2 the subject of formula then

V2=p1v1/p2

V2= 2.9*8.21/4=5.95 ml

What is the value of x?<br><br> 6x−2(x 4)=12
Ymorist [56]

Answer: The value of x is -6.

Explanation:

To calculate the value of 'x', we need to solve each function happening inthe equation.

The equation provided to us is 6x-2(4x)=12

To solve this, we will multiply 4x with 2 and then subtract the like terms and finally, we evaluate the value of 'x'.

6x-8x=12\\\\-2x=12\\\\x=\frac{12}{-2}\\\\x=-6

Hence, the value of x will be -6.
