The correct answer is A. Most reactive non metals.

Firstly if some one knows how to read the periodic table he would have no confusion in deciding whether group 7 has metals or non metals. Group 7 contains non metals so basically we can easily cancel out two options of metals.

Secondly group 7 non metals are the most reactive non metals as they need only one electron in order to complete their valence shell and become stable.

The elements of group 7A are $\boxed{{\text{most reactive non - metals}}}$ . Hence the correct option is $\boxed{\text{1}}$ .

Further explanation:

Reactivity is defined as the tendency of the element to lose or gain an electron.

The reactivity trend of elements in the periodic table:

Across a period, the energy level remains same while the number of electrons increases. This causes the increase in nuclear charge of the atom and electrons strongly held by the nuclear forces. As a result, the reactivity of elements decreases from left to right.

Down the groups, the energy level increases while the number of electrons remains same. This causes a decrease in nuclear charge of the atom and electrons loosely held by the nuclear forces. As a result, the reactivity of elements increases from top to bottom.

In the periodic table, metals present in the left side, metalloid present in the middle, and the non-metals are present on the right side.

Since the group 7A is the 17th group of the periodic table and group 17th is present at the right side of the periodic table. Therefore, elements present in group 7A are non-metals.

Also, across the period reactivity of elements increases, therefore elements present at the most right are most reactive except noble gases. 17th is present at the most right side of the periodic table and thus elements present in group 7A are most reactive.

Hence the elements of group 7A are most reactive non-metals.

Explain how polarization of a cell increases the cell's internal resistance.<br>(2<br>2.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Explanation: The chemical action that occurs in the cell while the current is flowing causes hydrogen bubbles to form on the surface of the anode. This action is called POLARIZATION. Some hydrogen bubbles rise to the surface of the electrolyte and escape into the air, some remain on the surface of the anode. If enough bubbles remain around the anode, the bubbles form a barrier that increases internal resistance. When the internal resistance of the cell increases, the output current is decreased and the voltage of the cell also decreases.

A cell that is heavily polarized has no useful output. There are several methods to prevent polarization or to depolarize the cell.

One method uses a vent on the cell to permit the hydrogen to escape into the air. A disadvantage of this method is that hydrogen is not available to reform into the electrolyte during recharging. This problem is solved by adding water to the electrolyte, such as in an automobile battery. A second method is to use material that is rich in oxygen, such as manganese dioxide, which supplies free oxygen to combine with the hydrogen and form water.

A third method is to use a material that will absorb the hydrogen, such as calcium. The calcium releases hydrogen during the charging process. All three methods remove enough hydrogen so that the cell is practically free from polarization.

LOCAL ACTION

When the external circuit is removed, the current ceases to flow, and, theoretically, all chemical action within the cell stops. However, commercial zinc contains many impurities, such as iron, carbon, lead, and arsenic. These impurities form many small electrical cells within the zinc electrode in which current flows between the zinc and its impurities. Thus, the chemical action continues even though the cell itself is not connected to a load.

Local action may be prevented by using pure zinc (which is not practical), by coating the zinc with mercury, or by adding a small percentage of mercury to the zinc during the manufacturing process. The treatment of the zinc with mercury is called amalgamating (mixing) the zinc. Since mercury is many times heavier than an equal volume of water, small particles of impurities weighing less than mercury will float to the surface of the mercury. The removal of these impurities from the zinc prevents local action. The mercury is not readily acted upon by the acid. When the cell is delivering current to a load, the mercury continues to act on the impurities in the zinc. This causes the impurities to leave the surface of the zinc electrode and float to the surface of the mercury. This process greatly increases the storage life of the cell.

Julie drives 100 mi to Grandmother's house. On the way to Grandmother's, Julie drives half the distance at 30.0 mph and half the

salantis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance to grandmother's house=100 mi

it is given that during return trip Julie spend equal time driving with speed 30 mph and 70 mph

Let Julie travel x mi with 30 mph and 100-x with 70 mph

$\frac{x}{30}=\frac{100-x}{70}$

x=30 mi

Therefore

Julie's Average speed on the way to Grandmother's house $=\frac{100}{\frac{50}{30}+\frac{50}{70}}$

=42 mph

On return trip

$=\frac{100}{2\frac{30}{30}}=50 mph$

What is the kinetic energy of a 200 kg satellite as it follows a circular orbit of radius 8x106m around the earth?

motikmotik

Given the equation for the Speed of a Satellite

v = SqRt{Gravitational Constant}{Mass of Earth} divided by the radius given in your problem

we have:

(square root whole term on right side)

v = G Me
———
r

so. (6.67x10^-11)(5.97x10^24)
___________________
(8.0x10^6)

v = 7055 m/s (which is reasonable)

so utilize the Kinetic Energy Formula

KE = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2(200)(7055)^2

KE = 4.977x10^9 J

Calculate the critical angle for light going from Glycerine to air.

Georgia [21]

The refractive index for glycerine is $n_g=1.473$ , while for air it is $n_a = 1.00$ .

When the light travels from a medium with greater refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, there is a critical angle over which there is no refraction, but all the light is reflected. This critical angle is given by:
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )$
where n1 and n2 are the refractive indices of the two mediums. If we susbtitute the refractive index of glycerine and air in the formula, we find the critical angle for this case:
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{1.00}{1.473} )=42.8^{\circ}$
