The model below shows an atom of an element. 10 light gray and 8 dark gray balls sit at the center with 2 concentric black rings

around them. The inner ring has 2 medium gray balls on it, and the outer ring has 6 medium gray balls on it. At bottom, a dark gray ball = +1, a light gray ball = 0, a medium gray ball = negative 1. What is the atomic number of this atom? A. 6 B. 8 C. 9 D. 16

Answer:

The Atomic Number of the atom of an element whose model is given is "8" that is option no. 'C' in the question.

Explanation:

An Atom comprises of 3 basic structures that are Protons, Neutrons and Electrons. The central part is the Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons having positive charge and no charge respectively. The electrons are revolving around the nucleus in electronic shells having the negative charge.

<u><em>ATOMIC NUMBER: </em></u>

Atomic number is the number of protons present inside the nucleus of an atom and it determines the place of that particular atom in the <u>Periodic Table.</u>

In the model, given in the question, the nucleus contains 2 types of balls dark gray colored and light gray colored. The key at the bottom shows the dark gray colored ball as having a positive charge and thus it represents the atomic number for the given atom of element which is <u><em>EIGHT (8).</em></u>

So, the atomic number for the given atom is 8 which is element OXYGEN.

Which of the following concerning second ionization energies is true?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The fact is that the both elements belong to different groups in the periodic table. Mg is in group 12 while Al is in group 13. The outer most electron configuration for Mg2+=[Ne]3s0

Al+= [Ne]3s13p0

It is evident that in Al+, the second electron is to be removed from a filled 3s subshell which is energetically unfavourable. Unlike In Mg2+ where the two electrons are removed. There is always a tendency towards a quick loss of all the valence electrons in the valence shell. It will be more difficult to remove an electron from a filled shell.

Determine the total number of moles of ions in 40.0 ml of a 0.345 m solution of the strong electrolyte mgcl2
Sedbober [7]
A strong electrolyte like MgCl2 dissociates completely as per the following reaction:

MgCl_2 ----\ \textgreater \   Mg^{2+} + 2Cl^-

As you can see, from 1 molecule of MgCl2 produces 3 ions on dissociation.
So, 1 mole of MgCl2 produces 3 moles of ions.

Now, Moles of MgCl2 = Volume x Molarity

= 0.04 x 0.345   [Change volume to Litres]
= 0.0138 moles

Now, total moles of ions =  0.0138 x 3 = 0.0414

A solution at 25 ∘C has pOH = 10.53. Which of the following statements is or are true? The solution is acidic. The pH of the sol
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The true statements are:

The solution is acidic

The pH of the solution is 14.00 - 10.53.

10^{-10.53}=[OH^-]

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration present in the solution .

pH=-\log[H^+]

  • The pH value more 7 means that hydrogen ion concentration is less ,alkaline will be the solution.
  • The pH value less 7 means that hydrogen ion concentration is more ,acidic will be the solution.
  • The pH value equal to 7 indicates that the solution is neutral.

The pOH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration present in the solution .

pOH=-\log[OH^-]

The pOH of the solution = 10.53

10.53=-\log[OH^-]

10^{-10.53}=[OH^-]

The pH of the solution = ?

pH+pOH=14

pH=14-pOH=14-10.53=3.47

Here, the pH of the solution is less than 7 which means that solution acidic.

At higher elevations, the boiling point of water decreases, due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. As a result, what could
amid [387]
When we say decrease in boiling point, that means, we achieve boiling at a more lower temperature (lower than 100deg C). This is due to the lower atmospheric pressure. Boiling happens when the vapor pressure is equal the atmospheric pressure. Lower atmospheric pressure takes lower temperature for vapor pressure to equate with the atmospheric pressure. The answer here is letter B. 
At higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point, so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.
