<u>Answer:</u> The element represented by M is Strontium.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Let us consider the molar mass of metal be 'x'.
The molar mass of MO will be = Molar mass of oxygen + Molar mass of metal = (16 + x)g/mol
It is given in the question that 15.44% of oxygen is present in metal oxide. So, the equation becomes:

The metal atom having molar mass as 87.62/mol is Strontium.
Hence, the element represented by M is Strontium.
Here we have to get the right answers which include the given phrase.
The correct answers are as following:
High boiling and melting points: Hydrogen bond increase the amount of energy required for phase changes to occur, thereby raising the boiling and melting points.
High specific heat: Hydrogen bond increase the amount of energy required for molecules to increase the speed, thereby raising the specific heat.
High surface tension: Hydrogen bonds produce strong inter molecular attractions, which increase surface tension.
The incorrect answer:
Lower density as a solid than as a liquid: actually, density of solid is more than density of liquid as hydrogen bonds in solid produce strong inter molecular attractions among molecules, which aggregates molecules together, hence volume of associated molecules reduces. Therefore, density of solid is more than that of liquid.
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

Using Models to Answer Questions About Systems
Armando’s class was looking at images of rivers formed by flowing water. Most of the rivers were wide and shallow, but one river was narrow and deep. Armando’s class thinks that this river is narrow and deep because:
- the hill that the water flowed down was very steep, or
- the sand grains that the water flowed through were very small.
Armando designed the model below to try to answer the question: Why is this river so narrow and deep?
Explanation:
The model designed by Armando will be helpful to answer the question because of the following features it possesses:
1. An adjustable leg- since one of the hypotheses put forward by the class to explain why the river was narrow and deep was that the hill that the water flowed down was very steep, the adjustable legs can be lowered or raised in order to make the slope shallower or steeper so that their hypothesis can be tested.
2. A table of sand- the table of sand serves as the streambed. By adjusting the size of the sand grains to be larger or smaller, the students will be able to to test their second hypothesis that the small size sand grains that the water flowed through was the reason for the river to be narrow and deep.
The results of their experiments will enable them to come to a conclusion.
Answer:
2.01
Explanation:
The effusion is the passage of the molecules by a small hole by a difference of pressure. By Graham's Law, the rate of the effusion is inversely proportional to the square of the molar mass of the compound. Thus,
rateHF/rateHBr = √MHBr /√MHF
MHBr = 81 g/mol
MHF = 20 g/mol
rateHF/rateHBr = √81/√20
rateHF/rateHBr = 2.01
