Why does nuclear charge increase as you go left to right across a period
MariettaO [177]

 The atomic number increases moving left to right across a period and subsequently so does the effective nuclear charge. Therefore, moving left to right across a period the nucleus has a greater pull on the outer electrons and the atomic radii decreases.

A mystery element’s mass spectrum shows it to be 13.92 % Isotope A (219 amu), 72.16
adoni [48]

Answer:

The given element is Radon because its atomic weight is 222 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of A-219 = 13.92%

Percentage of B-222 = 72.16%

Percentage of C-225 = 13.92%

Atomic weight of element = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of A isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of B isotope × its atomic mass) + (abundance of C isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (13.92×219)+(72.16×222) + (13.92×225)/100

Average atomic mass =  3048.48 + 16019.52 +3132/ 100

Average atomic mass  = 22200 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 222 amu.

The given element is Radon because its atomic weight is 222 amu.

According to the following reaction, how many moles of carbon dioxide will be formed upon the complete reaction of 28.6 grams of
Musya8 [376]

Explanation:

We have 2CO + O2 => 2CO2.

Moles of CO = 28.6g / (28g/mol) = 1.021mol.

Moles of CO2 = Moles of CO = 1.021mol.

9) Consider the reaction of C6H6 Br2 C6H5Br HBr a. What is the theoretical yield of C6H5Br if 42.1 g of C6H6 react with 73.0 g o
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

71.7 g of C₆H₅Br are produced at the theoretical yield.

Explanation:

The reaction is:

C₆H₆ + B₂ → C₆H₅Br + HBr

This is an easy excersie, stoichiometry is 1:1

We determine moles of reactants:

42.1 g / 78g/mol = 0.540 moles of benzene

73 g / 159.80 g/mol = 0.457 moles of hydrogen bromide

Certainly, the HBr is the limiting reactant, because I need 0.540 moles of HBr for 0.540 moles of benzene and I only have, 0.457 moles.

0.457 moles of HBr will produce 0.457 of bromobenzene, at the 100 % yield reaction (theoretical yield)

We convert the moles to mass: 0.457 g . 157 g/mol = 71.7 g
