Which has a higher ionization energy: chlorine (Cl) or magnesium (Mg)? Why? Select the best answer

Chemistry
1 answer:
algol [13]1 year ago
3 0

Removal of the loosely bounded electron is defined by the ionization energy. Chlorine needs less energy to add electrons and has higher ionization power. Thus, option A is correct.

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

The ability of an electron to accept or give electrons to another element in a chemical reaction by forming and creating bonds and the positive and negative charges has been defined by the ionization energy.

Magnesium has lower ionization energy than chlorine due to its large size and smaller nuclear charge. On the other hand, chlorine can easily add electrons to the valence shell which is almost full.

Therefore, option A. chlorine has higher ionization energy and can add electrons with minimum energy.

How many grams of h3po4 are in 255 ml of a 4.50 m solution of h3po4?
murzikaleks [220]

H3PO4 has molecular weight of approximately 98 grams per mole. 4.50 M is equal to 4.50 mole per 1000 mL solution of H3PO4. 255 mL times 4.50 mol /1000 mL times 98 g/mol is equal to 112.455 grams. Note that I automatically equate 1 Liter to 1000 mL since the given volume is in mL for easier computation.

Water has a density of 1.0 g/cm3. Glycerin, a liquid used in some soaps, has a density of 1.26 g/cm3. If an object sinks in wate
sdas [7]
For an object to sink in something, it's density has to be higher than the object it is in, so if it sinks in water the number has be higher than 1

And to float, and objects density has to be lower than that of the substance it is put in, so it has to be lower than 1.26

So between 1 and 1.26

What is the initial temperature of a gas if the volume changed from 1.00 l to 1.10 l and the final temperature was determined to
Feliz [49]
Using charles law
v1/t1=v2/t2
v1=1l
v2=1.1l
t2=255+273=528
t1=?
1/t1=1.1/528   
cross multiply
1.1t1=528 divide both sides by 1.1
t1=528/1.1
t1=480k or 207celcius

What's an element in period 5 with larger radius than Yttrium?
eimsori [14]
Rubidium or strontium have larger a larger atomic radius since the further left on the periodic table you go, the larger the sizes of the atoms are.  This trend can be explained through effective nuclear charge which explains how the further left and down you go, the less the atoms nucleus is able to pull in the electrons around it.<span />

Answer:

Explanation: genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are being made by inserting a gene from an external source such as viruses, bacteria, animals or plants (etc) into foods. Genetically modified foods seem to be not as healthy as unmodified foods, according to research. also many people are against it due to the fact that some people go overboard and add too many genetically modified organisms, which causes health risks and unfortunately harms people. sometimes genetically modified food contains toxins and antibiotics. srry i couldnt find much on the process but this is based off my background knowledge so yeah
