If an element is more reactive, is it more likely to be found as an element or a compound?

1 answer:

5 0

It is more likely to be found as a COMPOUND, as it is more reactive, by the time we found them, they're already reacted with other elements or compounds to form new compounds.
Example is oxygen, it is very reactive, therefore we often found oxygen in water, which is H2O, in earth, instead of just pure oxygen.

calculate the enthalpy change for converting 1.00 mol of liquid water at 100 C to water vapor at 145 degree celsius for water Δ

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

q1 = mCpΔT

= 18.016g × 1.84J/g.K × (418.15-373.15)

= 1491.72 J

q2 = n×ΔH vap

= 1mol ×44.0kJ/mol

= 44KJ

∴ qtotal = q1+ q2

= 1.498kJ + 44.0kJ

= 45.498KJ

Explanation: The heat flow can be separated into steps.all that is being observed at a constant pressure,the heat flow is equal to the enthalpy.

Which reactants would lead to a spontaneous reaction?

balandron [24]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The elements which have excess or deficiency of electrons will react readily.

Atomic number of Mn is 25 and electronic configuration of $Mn^{2+}$ is [Ar] $4s^{0}3d^{5}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Cr is 24 and electronic configuration of $Cr$ is [Ar] $4s^{1}3d^{5}$ . This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Fe is 26 and electronic configuration of $Fe$ is [Ar] $4s^{2}3d^{6}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Cu is 29 and electronic configuration of $Cu^{2+}$ is [Ar] $4s^{0}3d^{9}$ . This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Al is 13 and electronic configuration of Al is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{1}$ . This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Ba is 56 and electronic configuration of $Ba^{2+}$ is [Kr] $4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{6}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Mg is 12 and electronic configuration of $Mg^{2+}$ is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Sn is 50 and electronic configuration of Sn is [Kr] $4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{2}$ . This configuration is stable.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, only Fe and $Cu^{2+}$ reactants would lead to a spontaneous reaction as they have incomplete sub-shells. Therefore, in order to gain stability they will readily react.
