Based on the electron configuration of the two atoms predict the ratio of metal cationic (+) atom to nonmetal anionic (-) atom in the compound hence the ratio is 1:1.

<h3>What does the octet rule say?</h3>

The Octet Rule states that the atoms of the elements bond to each other in an attempt to complete their valence shell (the last shell of the electrosphere).

Basically, they obey the octet rule which states that the capacity of atoms (e.g. here Magnesium and Sulfur) to prefer to have 8 (eight) electrons (e-) in their respective valence shells. In this case, Magnesium is Mg (+2) and Sulfur is (-2) hence the ratio is 1:1.

Dinitrogen tetraoxide, N2O4, decomposes to nitrogen dioxide, NO2, in a first-order process. If k = 1.5 x 103 s-1 at 5 ºC and k =

Arada [10]

Answer:

The activation energy for the decomposition = 33813.28 J/mol

Explanation:

Using the expression,

$\ln \dfrac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} =-\dfrac{E_{a}}{R} \left (\dfrac{1}{T_1}-\dfrac{1}{T_2} \right )$

Wherem

$k_1\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_1$

$k_2\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_2$

$E_a$ is the activation energy

R is Gas constant having value = 8.314 J / K mol

Thus, given that, $E_a$ = ?

$k_2=4.0\times 10^3s^{-1}$

$k_1=1.5\times 10^3s^{-1}$

$T_1=5\ ^0C$

$T_2=25\ ^0C$

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (5 + 273.15) K = 278.15 K

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K

$T_1=278.15\ K$

$T_2=298.15\ K$

So,

$\ln \frac{1.5\times 10^3}{4.0\times 10^3}\:=-\frac{E_{a}}{8.314}\times \left(\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}\right)$

$E_a=-\ln \frac{1.5\times \:10^3}{4.0\times \:10^3}\:\times \frac{8.314}{\left(\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}\right)}$

$E_a=-\frac{8.314\ln \left(\frac{1.5\times \:10^3}{4\times \:10^3}\right)}{\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}}$

$E_a=-\frac{689483.53266 \ln \left(\frac{1.5}{4}\right)}{20}$

$E_a=33813.28\ J/mol$

<u>The activation energy for the decomposition = 33813.28 J/mol</u>

Which of the following lists describes characteristics of a base? (3 points)

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

slippery, high pH, and caustic (last option)

Explanation:

when we say base we should think soap. soap is slippery. Bases give OH- ion. when OH- is combined with H+ ion it will create water which raises the pH. Since base can dissolve fats, ex: using dish liquid to cut grease on pots and pans etc.. they are caustic. Biologically they can disrupt the cell memebrane making it caustic to cell tissue.
