A mass is attached to one end of a string. The other end of the string is attached to a rigid support. The mass is released at A and swings in a vertical arc to points B, C, and D. At what point does the mass have the most potential energy?
A. D.
B. A.
C. C.
D. B.

These models show the electron structures of two different nonmetal elements. which element is likely more reactive, and why? element 1 is more reactive because it has fewer electron shells and is toward the top of its group on the periodic table. element 1 is more reactive because it has more electrons in its valence shell and is farther to the right on the periodic table. element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a valence shell close to the nucleus, so it will attract electrons. element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.

Assume that a person skiing high in the mountains at an altitude of h = 15100 ft takes in the same volume of air with each breath as she does while walking at sea level. determine the ratio of the mass of oxygen inhaled for each breath at this high altitude compared to that at sea level. assume that the air composition (i.e. % of air that is oxygen) is the same at sea level as it is at 15100 ft.

Atoms seldom exist as independent particles in nature a) as single particles, most atoms have low potential energy b) their electronegativity is much lower when they combine with other atoms c) atoms are more stable when they combine with other atoms d) neutral particles are rare
