The radius of a lithium atom is 130 picometers, and the radius of a fluorine atom is 60 picometers. The radius of a lithium ion,

Li⁺, is 59 picometers, and the radius of a fluoride ion, F⁻, is 133 picometers.Explain, in terms of subatomic particles, why the radius of a lithium ion is smaller than the radius of a lithium atom.

Answer:

A positive ions is always smaller than the corresponding atom.

A negative ion is always larger than the corresponding atom.

Explanation:

The reason for this is that, when a positive ion is formed, a full shell is usually removed with its electrons thereby reducing the size of the electron cloud and decreasing the size of the electron cloud.

A negative ion is formed by addition of more electrons to the electron cloud hence it spreads out. Interelectronic repulsion accounts for the larger size of the negative ion.

Describe the particle mode of matter. what does the brownian motion tells us about the particles in matter?give other evidence t
svetlana [45]

Answer:

dium (a liquid or a gas). This pattern of motion typically consists of random fluctuations in a particle's position inside a fluid sub-domain, followed by a relocation to another sub-domain. Each relocation is followed by more fluctuations within the new closed volume. This pattern describes a fluid at thermal equilibrium, defined by a given temperature. Within such a fluid, there exists no preferential direction of flow (as in transport phenomena). More specifically, the fluid's overall linear and angular momenta remain null over time. The kinetic energies of the molecular Brownian motions, together with those of molecular rotations and vibrations, sum up to the caloric component of a fluid's internal energy (the Equipartition theorem).

A 10.0 mL sample of 0.25 M NaOH(aq) is titrated with 0.10 M HCl(aq) (adding HCl to NaOH). Determine which region on the titratio
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

1) After adding 15.0 mL of the HCl solution, the mixture is before the equivalence point on the titration curve.

2) The pH of the solution after adding HCl is 12.6

Explanation:

10.0 mL of 0.25 M NaOH(aq) react with 15.0 mL of 0.10 M HCl(aq). Let's calculate the moles of each reactant.

nNaOH=\frac{0.25mol}{L} .10.0 \times 10^{-3} L=2.5 \times 10^{-3}mol

nHCl=\frac{0.10mol}{L} \times 15.0 \times 10^{-3} L=1.5 \times 10^{-3}mol

There is an excess of NaOH so the mixture is before the equivalence point. When HCl completely reacts, we can calculate the moles in excess of NaOH.

                    NaOH       +       HCl       ⇒       NaCl      +         H₂O

Initial          2.5 × 10⁻³         1.5 × 10⁻³               0                      0

Reaction    -1.5 × 10⁻³        -1.5 × 10⁻³          1.5 × 10⁻³          1.5 × 10⁻³

Final            1.0 × 10⁻³               0                 1.5 × 10⁻³          1.5 × 10⁻³

The concentration of NaOH is:

[NaOH]=\frac{1.0 \times 10^{-3} mol }{25.0 \times 10^{-3} L} =0.040M

NaOH is a strong base so [OH⁻] = [NaOH].

Finally, we can calculate pOH and pH.

pOH = -log [OH⁻] = -log 0.040 = 1.4

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.4 = 12.6

A piece of iron (C=0.449 J/g°C) and a piece of gold (C=0.128 J/g°C) have identical masses. If the iron has an initial temperatur
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Since the two metals have the same mass, but the specific heat capacity of iron is much greater than that of gold, the final temperature of the two metals will be closer to 498 K than to 298 K

Explanation:

Iron is hotter and gold is colder, therefore, according to laws of thermodynamics, iron will lose heat to gold until they are at the same temperature.

The specific heat capacity of iron(0.449) is over three times that of gold(0.128). Since masses are equal, this means that each time iron's temperature drops by one degree, the energy released it releases makes gold's temperature increase by more than 3 degrees. So gold's temperature will be climbing much faster than iron's is falling. Meaning they will meet closer to the initial temperature of iron than that of gold

An ideal gas in a cylindrical container of radius r and height h is kept at constant pressure p. The bottom of the container is
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

m =\frac{p*(pi)*r^{2}*h*mw}{R*\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}}  

Explanation:

The gas ideal law is  

PV= nRT (equation 1)

Where:

P = pressure  

R = gas constant  

T = temperature  

n= moles of substance  

V = volume  

Working with equation 1 we can get  

n =\frac{PV}{RT}

The number of moles is mass (m) / molecular weight (mw). Replacing this value in the equation we get.

\frac{m}{mw} =\frac{PV}{RT}  or  

m =\frac{P*V*mw}{R*T}   (equation 2)

The cylindrical container has a constant pressure p  

The volume is the volume of a cylinder this is

V =(pi)*r^{2}*h

Where:

r = radius  

h = height  

(pi) = number pi (3.1415)

This cylinder has a radius, r and height, h so the volume is  V =(pi)*r^{2}*h

Since the temperatures has linear distribution, we can say that the temperature in the cylinder is the average between the temperature in the top and in the bottom of the cylinder. This is:  

T =\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}  

Replacing these values in the equation 2 we get:

m =\frac{P*V*mw}{R*T}   (equation 2)

m =\frac{p*(pi)*r^{2}*h*mw}{R*\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}}
