Answer the following question given this paragraph: Carbon is a nonmetal in group 14 of the periodic table. Like other group 14 elements, carbon has four valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outer energy level of an atom that are involved in chemical bonds. The valence electrons of carbon are shown in the electron dot diagram in the Figure below . Q: What do you call the electrons in the outer energy level of an atom that are involved in chemical bonds? Choices: - force electrons - helium electrons - transitions electrons - valence electrons A:
valence electrons

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Components along the same axis, say the x-axis, are vectors along the same line and, thus, can be added to one another like ordinary numbers. The same is true for components along the y-axis. (For example, a 9-block eastward walk could be taken in two legs, the first 3 blocks east and the second 6 blocks east, for a total of 9, because they are along the same direction. ) So resolving vectors into components along common axes makes it easier to add them. Now that the components of R are known, its magnitude and direction can be found. Step 3. To get the magnitude. Q: Vectors along the same line can be what to one another like ordinary numbers? Choices: - noted - taken - lost - added A:
added

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Fructose, a sugar found in fruit, contains only carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. It is used in ice cream to prevent a sandy texture. Complete combustion of 32.4 mg of fructose in oxygen produced 47.6 mg of CO2 and 19.4 mg of H2O. What is the empirical formula of fructose? 11. Coniine, the primary toxin in hemlock, contains only carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen. When ingested, it causes paralysis and eventual death. Complete combustion of 28.7 mg of coniine produced 79.4 mg of CO2 and 34.4 mg of H2O. What is the empirical formula of the coniine? 12. Copper and tin alloys (bronzes) with a high arsenic content were presumably used by Bronze Age metallurgists because bronze produced from arsenic-rich ores had superior casting and working properties. The compositions of some representative bronzes of this type are as follows:. Q: How can you prevent your ice cream from getting a sandy texture? Choices: - by using lowfat milk - by adding oil - by adding salt - by using fructose A:
by using fructose
