8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Diamagnetism , paramagnetism and ferromagnetism are terms which are used to describe the magnetic activity of transition metals. These terms helps to know the response the metal will have when placed in a magnetic field. These activities can be discerned from the d-block electronic configuration. If the number of electrons are even, this means they all form a pair and the metal is diamagnetic. If otherwise, there is an unpaired electron which causes the paramagnetic activity of the metal in magnetic field.

To the question, options A-D are diamagnetic but configurations with d8 are the ones that form square planar complexes

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Almost all corn oil is expeller-pressed

Explanation:

then solvent-extracted using hexane or 2-methylpentane (isohexane). The solvent is evaporated from the corn oil, recovered, and re-used. After extraction, the corn oil is then refined by degumming and/or alkali treatment, both of which remove phosphatides.Oct 16, 2020

SEP Use Models Why does the number of electrons in each principal energy shell increase as the number of the shell increases?

zlopas [31]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The number of electrons in each principal energy shell increases as the number of shells increases because more electronic orbitals become available to accommodate the electrons.

For instance, the n= 2 level only accommodates eight electrons in the s and p orbitals whereas the n=3 level accommodates 18 electrons in s, p and d orbitals respectively.

Each principal level accommodates 2n^2 electrons where n= the principal energy shell.

Formulating an Investigative Question In this experiment, you will use a track and a toy car to explore the concept of movement.

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

A scientific question to be asked is; What is the average speed of the toy car?

Explanation:

A scientific question is a question which is well defined, the values in the question can be measured, and the inputs and outputs related to the question are controllable

The parameters measured in the experiment are;

The time elapsed during the movement of the car, Δt

The distance the car moves, d

From the obtained measurements, the value can be calculated is the average speed of the toy car as follows;

$The \ average \ speed \ of \ the \ toy \ car, \ v_{avg} = \dfrac{d}{\Delta t}$

Therefore, a scientific question to be asked that will be answered by doing the experiment is; What is the average speed of the toy car?
