The electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is francium.

<h3>What is ionization energy? </h3>

Ionization energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to remove the most loosely electron present in outermost shell.

<h3>Ionization energy across period</h3>

Ionization energy increase as we move from left to right in the period. This can be explained as when we move from left to right along period new electron is added to the same shell which increase the nuclear charge. Hence results int he decrease in size. Due to this decrease in size more energy is required to remove electron from outermost shell.

<h3>Ionization energy along group</h3>

Ionization energy decrease as we move from top to bottom along group. This can be explained as we move from top to bottom new electron is added to new shell. Due to addition of new shell the size of atom increases which results in the decrease in the nuclear charge. Due to this less amount of energy is needed to remove an electron.

Thus, we concluded that the electron configuration that belongs to the atom with the lowest first ionization energy is francium.

During our phase changes lab, where did we place the thermometer?
IrinaK [193]

The thermometer must be <u>in contact with the ice/water only</u>

Explanation:

In this experiment in the lab, the aim is to measure the specific latent heat of fusion of water.

The specific latent heat of fusion of a substance is the amount of heat energy required to completely melt a certain amount of the substance, mathematically:

\lambda = \frac{Q}{m}

where

Q is the heat supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

In this experiment, the aim is to measure the specific latent heat of fusion of water. In order to do that, a mix of ice/water is heated with a certain amount of heat Q, and then it is evaluated the amount of mass m that undergoes melting.

An important precaution that must be taken in this experiment is that the temperature of the water/ice mixture remains constant and equal to the melting point of ice (otherwise, part of the heat supplied to the mixture is used to increase the temperature of the water, resulting in an inaccurate measure of Q). Therefore, a thermometer must be used to check constantly the temperature, and this thermometer must be placed inside the ice/water mixture only (It should not touch the saucepan, whose temperature can be higher).

So, the correct answer is

in contact with the ice/water only

A tank of gas is found to exert 8.6 atm at 38°C. What would be the required
Vesna [10]

Answer:

36.2 K

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial pressure of the gas (P₁): 8.6 atm
  • Initial temperature of the gas (T₁): 38°C
  • Final pressure of the gas (P₂): 1.0 atm (standard pressure)
  • Final temperature of the gas (T₂): ?

Step 2: Convert T₁ to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C +273.15

K = 38 °C +273.15 = 311 K

Step 3: Calculate T₂

We will use Gay Lussac's law.

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

T₂ = P₂ × T₁/P₁

T₂ = 1.0 atm × 311 K/8.6 atm = 36.2 K

The specific rotation of (S)-2-butanol is +13.5. If 0.119 g of its enantiomer is dissolved in 10.0 mL of ethanol and
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

+15.8°

Explanation:

The formula for the observed rotation (α) of an optically active sample is

α = [α]<em>lc </em>

where

<em>l</em> = the cell path length in decimetres

<em>c</em> = the concentration in units of g/100 mL

[α] = the specific rotation in degrees  

1. Convert the concentration to units of g/100 mL

c = \frac{\text{0.119 g}}{\text{10.0 mL}} \times \frac{10 }{10 } =\frac{\text{1.19 g}}{\text{100 mL}}

2. Calculate the observed rotation

\alpha = (+13.3 ^{\circ}) \times 1.19 \times 1 = +15.8^{\circ}
