By Pleistocene ice age is meant the glacial periods that appeared in the Pleistocene. The Pleistocene is the first epoch of the Quaternary. It is an epoch when there was a so called ''ice age'' on the Earth, or rather a glacial period. During this ice age the planet had much lower temperatures on a global scale. The climate was also much drier. Lot of ocean water was frozen in the ice sheets that were stretching deep into the North American and Eurasian continents, which resulted in much lower sea levels that today as well. The places further north than 40 degrees of latitude were almost exclusively covered with ice, so life was almost impossible apart from some coastline places.
Answer:
2.93g
Explanation:first, let us calculate the number of mole of NaCl present in the solution. This is illustrated below:
Molarity = 0.5M
Volume = 100cm^3 = 100/1000 = 0.1L
Mole =?
Molarity = mole /Volume
Mole = Molarity x Volume
Mole of NaCl = 0.5 x 0.1 = 0.05mole
Now we can obtain the mass of NaCl as follows:
Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol
Mole of NaCl = 0.05mol
Mass of NaCl =?
Mass = number of mole x molar Mass
Mass of NaCl = 0.05 x 58.5
Mass of NaCl = 2.93g
Use M1V1 = M2V2 to solve
3(V1) = 2.8 * 1.6
3(V1) = 4.48
V1 = 1.493 L of stock solution
Answer: 1+
Justification:
The ionization energies tell the amount of energy needed to release an electron and form a ion. The first ionization energy if to loose one electron and form the ion with oxidation state 1+, the second ionization energy is the energy to loose a second electron and form the ion with oxidation state 2+, the third ionization energy is the energy to loose a third electron and form the ion with oxidation state 3+.
The low first ionization energy of element 2 shows it will lose an electron relatively easily to form the ion with oxidations state 1+.
The relatively high second ionization energy (and third too) shows that it is very difficult for this atom to loose a second electron, so it will not form an ions with oxidation state 2+. Furthermore, given the relatively high second and third ionization energies, you should think that the oxidation states 2+ and 3+ for element 2 never occurs.
Therefore, the expected oxidation state for the most common ion of element 2 is 1+.
