Answer:
C. The first ionization energy decreases because the outermost
electron is farther from the nucleus.
Explanation:
Ionization energy trend along group:
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.
As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.
Ionization energy trend along period:
As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.
Answer:
<em><u>Rows in the periodic table are called periods</u></em>. As one moves from left to right in a given period, the chemical properties of the elements slowly change. <em><u>Columns in the periodic table are called groups</u></em>. Elements in a given group in the periodic table share many similar chemical and physical properties
Explanation:
Answer is: this is an example of an Arrhenius acid.
An Arrhenius acid is a
substance that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions or protons (H⁺).
For example hydrochloric acid: HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).
An Arrhenius base is a
substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻<span>).
In this example lithium hydroxide is an Arrhenius base:</span>
LiOH(aq) → Li⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Answer:
For a particular chemical reaction, the enthalpy of the reactants is -400 kJ. The enthalpy of the products is -390 kJ. The entropy of the reactants is 0.2 kJ/K. The entropy of the products is 0.3 kJ/K. The temperature of the reaction is 25oC. What can you conclude about this reaction?
It is exergonic
It is endergonic
it is a redox reaction
It is being catalyzed by an enzyme
