Nitrogen gas has the chemical formula N2. One molecule of nitrogen gas is made up ofA.
one atom of nitrogen and one atom of oxygen.
B.
two atoms of nitrogen and one atom of oxygen.
C.
two atoms of nitrogen.
D.
one atom of nitrogen.

Answers

Nitrogen gas has the chemical formula N2. One molecule of nitrogen gas is made up of two atoms of nitrogen.

The correct option is C.

Explanation:

Nitrogen gas has the chemical formula N_(2), which means that two atoms of nitrogen element combined to form nitrogen gas.

The combination of two atoms of element nitrogen produce dinitrogen atom.

Dinitrogen is the nitrogen gas usually present in atmosphere of the earth in abundance.

2 atoms of nitrogen element

N + N = N_(2)

the gas is colorless and odorless formed at standard condition of temperature and pressure. The two nitrogen atoms are tightly bonded with triple bonds in between the atoms.

Which set of numbers gives the correct possible values of I for n=3?(0,1,2)
(0,1,2,3)
(-2,-1,0,1,2)
(-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3)

Answers

Symbol "l" denotes orbital quantum number which describes the shape of the orbital. From the given choices, those are magnetic quantum numbers which denotes the number of orbitals which is often a range of values from negative to positive. 2l + 1 is the formula to know the number of orbitals. l = n -1, where n is principal quantum number. Therefore l = 2, MI = (-2, -1, 0, 1, 2) or 5 orbitals.

Carbon -14 is an example of dating

Answers

Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope of carbon and is used primarily in radiocarbon dating at archaeological sites since we know the half life for carbon-14 and the ratio of carbon-12 and carbon-14 a living thing probably had when it died and the difference in that ratio can tell us how old the object is.  

I hope this helps.  Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear or if your question was asking something else.

Oil flows upward in the wick of a lantern because of the liquid property calledA. density.
B. meniscusity.
C. viscosity.
D. capillarity.

Answers

B
Meniscusity the convex or concave upper surface of a column liquid, the curvature of which is caused by surface tension
Capillarity. Capillary action is what causes anything with a wick to work, think about when you stick the corner of a paper towel in water, the water soaks up the paper towel.
