|F| = 2.09 × 10⁻⁸ assuming that the two ions are point charges.

Explanation:

What's the charge on each ion?

The symbol here stands for fundamental charge. Each electron carries a negative fundamental charge of -e. Each proton carry a positive fundamental charge of +e.

Molecules and atoms are neutral. They contain an equal number of electrons and protons. Remove one electron from a molecule or atom, and that particle will end up with more protons (which are positive) than electrons. That particle will carry a positive charge of +e become an ion (a cation to be precise.) Remove another electron and the ion will carry a charge of +2e.

For each ion $q = +2 \;e = 2\times 1.60\times 10^{-19}\;\text{C} = 3.2\times 10^{-19}\;\text{C}$ .

What's the size of the electrostatic force between the two ions?

Consider Coulomb's Law for the electrostatic force between two point charges:

$\displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1\cdot q_2}{r^{2}}$ ,

where

is Coulomb's constant, q_1

and

are the charge on the two point charges, and

is the separation between the two charges.

Make sure that all values are in SI units. Assume that the two ions are small enough that they act like point charges:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}F &= -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}}\\&=-\frac{8.99\times 10^{9}\cdot(3.2\times 10^{-19}) \cdot (3.2\times 10^{-19})}{(2.1\times 10^{-10})^{2}}\\ &= -2.09\times 10^{-8}\;\text{N}\end{aligned}$ .

The value of is negative, meaning that the two charges will repel each other because they are both positive. The question is asking for the magnitude of this force. Thus drop the sign in front of to obtain $2.09\times 10^{-8}\;\text{N}$ , which is the magnitude of .

i dont think you are wrong for wanting to get even with someone who did you wrong.

(i'm an eye for an eye kind of person) but if this person hurt you in a sexual way, i dont suggest doing anything to him. he should be taken to the proper authorities, you could go to jail depending on what you do. if it was something small like your sibling took your spot on the couch, than yea, i would get even with him by taking one of his favorite snacks lol. but i dont suggest you doing anything illegal.

Answer from: Quest

the temperature and the pressure affect solubility. temperature affects by changing the properties of the solvent. the increase in pressure increases solubility, the decrease in pressure decreases solubility.

Three different objects, all with different masses, are initially at rest at the bottom of a set of steps. each step is of uniform height . the mass of each object is a multiple of the base mass : object 1 has mass 4..00m , object 2 has mass 1..96m , and object 3 has mass . when the objects are at the bottom of the steps, define the total gravitational potential energy of the three-object system to be zero. if the objects are then relocated as shown, what is the new total potential energy of the system? each answer requires the numerical coefficient to an algebraic expression. each algebraic expression is given using some combination of the variables , , and , where is the acceleration due to gravity. enter only the numerical coefficient. (example: if the answer is 1..23mgd , just enter 1.23)
