Answer:

20% of phosphorus

Explanation:

A fertilizer is used to improve the fertility of soils. Most fertilizers contains the element nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.

They are often designated NPK fertilizers.

  Now we know that the numbers 10-20-20 depicts the nitrogen-phosphorus and potassium content of the fertilizer.

From the designation,

    The actual percentage is 20% of phosphorus.

                                               10%  of nitrogen

                                                20% of potassium

Repulsion of electrons within two interacting molecules produces changes in electron distribution. This change in electron distr
ycow [4]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

This explains how two noble gases molecules can have an attractive force between them.

This force is called as van dar Waals forces.

It plays a fundamental role in fields in as diverse as supramolecular chemistry structural biology .

If no other forces are present, the point at which the force becomes repulsive rather than attractive as two atoms near one another is called the van der Waals contact distance. This results from the electron clouds of two atoms unfavorably coming into contact.[1] It can be shown that van der Waals forces are of the same origin as the Casimir effect, arising from quantum interactions with the zero-point field.[2] The resulting van der Waals forces can be attractive or repulsive.[3] It is also sometimes used loosely as a synonym for the totality of intermolecular forces.[4] The term includes the force between permanent dipoles (Keesom force), the force between a permanent dipole and a corresponding induced dipole (Debye force), and the force between instantaneously induced dipoles

What is the stoichiometric ratio between BaCl2 and NaCl
bixtya [17]
<span>BaCl2+Na2SO4---->BaSO4+2NaCl There is 1.0g of BaCl2 and 1.0g of Na2SO4, which is the limiting reagent? "First convert grams into moles" 1.0g BaCl2 * (1 mol BaCl2 / 208.2g BaCl2) = 4.8 x 10^-3 mol BaCl2 1.0g Na2SO4 * (1 mol Na2SO4 / 142.04g Na2SO4) = 7.0 x 10^-3 mol Na2SO4 (7.0 x 10^-3 mol Na2SO4 / 4.8 x 10^-3 mol BaCl2 ) = 1.5 mol Na2SO4 / mol BaCl2 "From this ratio compare it to the equation, BaCl2+Na2SO4---->BaSO4+2NaCl" The equation shows that for every mol of BaCl2 requires 1 mol of Na2SO4. But we found that there is 1.5 mol of Na2SO4 per mol of BaCl2. Therefore, BaCl2 is the limiting reagent.</span>

Bismuth(III) sulfate is an ionic compound formed from Bi3+ and SO42-. What is the correct way to represent the formula?
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Bi2(SO4)3

Explanation:

Bismuth(iii) sulfate is an ionic compound therefore, their is transfer of electron. Ionic compound has both cations and anions. The cations is positively charged ion while the anions is negatively charged ions. The cations loses electron to become positively charged while the anions gains electron to become negatively charged.

From the compound above, Bismuth(iii) sulfate the cations will be Bismuth ion which loses 3 electrons. The anions is the sulfate ion (S04)2- with a -2 charge.

The chemical formula can be computed from the charge configuration as follows

Bi3+  and (SO4)2-

cross multiply the charges living the sign behind to get the chemical formula

Bi2(SO4)3

Note the final chemical formula, the numbers are sub scripted

Leto [7]
Basically team B would win since it is exerting a force of 900N unlike team A ( you can tell by doing 4900N minus 4000N ). It is very unbalanced.
