graphite is a form of carbon in which carbon atoms are arranged in a layer.
Answer:
X= Be
Y= B
Z=O
Explanation:
From the description of the compound XCl2, among the options listed only beryllium can form such compound with three lone pairs in the two chlorine atoms and no lone pair on the central atom X.
From the description of YCl3, only Boron among the options listed can form such a compound with no lone pair on the central atom and three lone pairs on each of the chlorine atoms.
From the description of ZCl2, only oxygen forms the compound OCl2 among the elements listed where oxygen possesses two lone pairs and each chlorine atom possesses three lone pairs each.
Answer: When coal is burned, chemical potential energy is transformed into thermal energy, light energy, and sound energy. Only the thermal energy is used for electricity production. Light and sound energy dissipate into the environment, immediately reducing efficiency.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
\left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb \right.
Explanation:
isotopes are various forms of same elements with different atomic number but different mass number.
Radioactivity is the emission of rays or particles from an atom to produce a new nuclei. There are various forms of radioactive emissions which are
- Alpha particle emission \left \{ {{y=4} \atop {x=2}}He \right.
- Beta particle emission \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=-1}}e \right.
- gamma radiation \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ \right.
in the problem the product formed after radiation was Pb-206. isotopes of lead include Pb-204, Pb-206, Pb-207, Pb-208. they all have atomic number 82. which means the radiation cannot be ∝ or β since both radiations will alter the atomic number of the parent nucleus.
Only gamma radiation with \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ \right. will produce a Pb-206 of atomic number 82 and mass number 206 , since gamma ray have 0 mass and has 0 atomic number.equation is shown below
\left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right ⇒ \left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right + \left \{ {{y=0} \atop {x=0}}γ\right.
Thus the atomic symbol is \left \{ {{y=206} \atop {x=82}}Pb\right
The answer is true. According to the second law of thermodynamics, energy tends to become more spread out
