Which of the following is not true in regard to noble gases? a. these elements have full outermost shells. b. these elements are found in the last column (group 18) on the periodic table. c. these elements tend to be relatively inactive. d. these elements tend to gain or lose electrons easily

D.These elements tend to gain or lose electrons easily is incorrect.

Explanation:

Noble gasses consist of atoms that have full rings of electrons. Electrons are what bond atoms together to create chemical compounds, and incomplete rings are needed for the process.

D. These elements tend to gain or lose electrons easily

The gases which are considered as Nobel are generally nonreactive. Truth be told, they are the least responsive components on the periodic table. This is on the grounds that they have a total valence shell. They tend to pick up or lose electrons rarely.

In 1898, Hugo Erdmann begat the expression “Nobel gas” to mirror the low reactivity of these components, similarly as the respectable metals are less receptive than different metals. These gases have high energies of ionization and immaterial electronegativities. These gases have low breaking points and are on the whole gases at room temperature.

first let us lay out the formula for potential

and kinetic energy:

pe = mgh

ke = (mv^2)/2

where: m=mass, v=velocity, g=gravitational

acceleration, h=height

calculating for mass using the known values of

pe:

340j = m (9.81 m/s^2) (50ft) (1m/3.28ft)

m = 2.27 kg

the law of conservation of energy states that

energy is neither created nor destroyed. therefore, the change in kinetic

energy from 50 ft to 35 ft would be equal to the change in potential energy

from 50 ft to 35 ft. however it would be opposite in signs since one is losing

while other is gaining.

ke(35ft) – ke(50ft) = - [ pe(35ft) – pe(50ft]

ke(50ft) = 0 since the brick is initially at rest

ke(35ft) = 340j - 2.27kg (9.81 m/s^2) (35ft)

(1m/3.28 ft)

ke(35ft)

= 102.38 j
