Le Châtelier's Principle
This principle states that as temperature increases the pressure must also increase to remain at equilibrium
Answer:
Explanation:
(a) Firstly, caesium abd potassium are both in Group 1 of the periodic table. Group 1 metals (also called alkali metals) are the most reactive metals of the periodic table. Caesium is more reactive than Potassium because it has a higher electropositivity than Potassium. Electropositivity is the tendency of a metal to donate electron(s) to form a cation. Electropositivity increases down the group; this is because it is easier for atoms to loose electrons on the outermost shell that are far away from the central nucleus as against atoms whose outermost electrons are closer to the central nucleus. <u>Thus, the more "bulky" an atom is, the farther it's outermost electrons (valence electrons) get from the central nucleus and the easier it is to lose the outermost electron(s). And the easier it is for the valence electron(s) to be removed, the more reactive the atom would be and vice-versa.</u>
Caesium is more reactive than potassium because it is more bulky than potassium, with an atomic number of 55, while potassium has an atomic number of 19.
NOTE: The closer an electron is to the nucleus, the more difficult it is to be removed from it's shell.
(b) i. Formula for Caesium Nitrate:
Symbol for Caesium is Cs and Nitrate is NO₃⁻.
Cs⁺ + NO₃⁻ ↔ CsNO₃
Formula for Caesium Nitrate is CsNO₃
ii. Formula for Caesium sulphate
Symbol for caesium is Cs and Sulphate is SO₄²⁻
Cs⁺ + SO₄²⁻ ↔ Cs₂SO₄
Formula for Caesium sulphate is Cs₂SO₄
NOTE: When writing the formulae, the charges would be exchanged to form the subscript as seen on the product sides above.
Answer : The mass of the water molecule is 4.5 times greater than the mass of the helium atom.
Explanation :
Assumption : The number of water molecules is equal to the number of helium atoms
Given : The mass of water = 4.5 × The mass of helium ........(1)
The mass of Water = Mass of 1 water molecule × Number of water molecule
The mass of Helium = Mass of 1 helium atom × Number of helium atom
Now these two masses expression put in the equation (1), we get
Mass of 1 water molecule × Number of water molecule = 4.5 × Mass of 1 helium atom × Number of helium atom
As per assumption, the number of water molecules is equal to the number of helium atoms. The relation between the mass of water molecule and the mass of helium atom is,
Mass of water molecule = 4.5 × Mass of helium atom
Therefore, the mass of the water molecule is 4.5 times greater than the mass of the helium atom.
Answer:
Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
Explanation: Science.
Mercury naturally exists in Liquid state.
On Condensing it can exist in Solid state as well.
Hope it helps...
