Why on moving from left to right in a period the chemical reactivity of element first decreases and then increases?

Chemistry

Helen [10]1 year ago

This phenomenon is known as the periodic trends in reactivity. It occurs because of the arrangement of electrons in orbitals.

As one moves from left to right across a period, the number of electrons in the outermost shell increases. These outermost electrons are involved in chemical reactions.

Therefore, as the number of outermost electrons increases, the reactivity of the element increases. However, the elements have filled shells, so beyond a certain point, the outermost shell will be full.

The reactivity then decreases as the electrons are no longer available to take part in chemical reactions. Therefore, the reactivity of the elements decreases from left to right in a period and then increases as the outermost shell begins to fill up again.

A voltaic cell consists of a nickel electrode in a solution containing Ni2+ ions, and a copper electrode in a solution containin
Marysya12 [62]
First, we write the half equations for the reduction of the chemical species present:

Cu⁺² + 2e → Cu; E° = 0.34 V
Ni⁺² + 2e → Ni; E° = - 0.23 V

In order to determine the potential of the cell, we find the difference between the two values. For this:

E(cell) = 0.34 - (-0.23)
E(cell) = 0.57 V

The second option is correct. (The difference in values is due to different values in literature, and it is negligible)

A strontium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 10.60 gg of Sr(OH)2Sr(OH)2 in water to make 47.00 mLmL of solution.What
NeTakaya

Answer:

Approximately 1.854\; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1}.

Explanation:

Note that both figures in the question come with four significant figures. Therefore, the answer should also be rounded to four significant figures. Intermediate results should have more significant figures than that.

<h3>Formula mass of strontium hydroxide</h3>

Look up the relative atomic mass of \rm Sr, \rm O, and \rm H on a modern periodic table. Keep at least four significant figures in each of these atomic mass data.

  • \rm Sr: 87.62.
  • \rm O: 15.999.
  • \rm H: 1.008.

Calculate the formula mass of \rm Sr(OH)_2:

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) = 87.62 + 2\times (15.999 + 1.008) = 121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}.

<h3>Number of moles of strontium hydroxide in the solution</h3>

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) =121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} means that each mole of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units have a mass of 121.634\; \rm g.

The question states that there are 10.60\; \rm g of \rm Sr(OH)_2 in this solution.

How many moles of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units would that be?

\begin{aligned}n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{m\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}\\ &= \frac{10.60\; \rm g}{121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

<h3>Molarity of this strontium hydroxide solution</h3>

There are 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units in this 47\; \rm mL solution. Convert the unit of volume to liter:

V = 47\; \rm mL = 0.047\; \rm L.

The molarity of a solution measures its molar concentration. For this solution:

\begin{aligned}c\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{V}\\ &= \frac{8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol}{0.047\; \rm L} \approx 1.854\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}.

(Rounded to four significant figures.)
