Which element would have the largest radius; Br or Se? Explain

wolverine [178]

Answer: The correct answer is a.

Uranium-236 is intermediate nuclei created by fusion reactions an unstable isotopes of uranium created from four hydrogen atoms used in the H - bomb .

Following is the reaction involved in above process :

²³⁵U + ¹n = ²³⁶U = ¹⁴⁴Ba + ⁸⁹ Kr + 3¹n + 177 MeV

Here ,

²³⁵U = Fision Material ,

¹n = projectile ,

²³⁶U = Intermediate Nuclei

¹⁴⁴Ba and ⁸⁹ Kr = Fission product

Rank the following elements by electron affinity 1) fluorine 2) selenium 3) arsenic 4) potassum 5) argon

denis23 [38]

Answer:

Fluorine > Selenium > Arsenic > Potassium > Argon

Explanation:

Electron affinity describes the ability or readiness or tendency of an atom to gain an electron.

The higher the value, the higher the tendency. Electron affinity depends on the on the nuclear charge and atomic radius. When nuclear charge is more, electron affinity is high, when atomic radius increases electron affinity reduces.

Noble gases such as Helium, Neon, and Argon would have 0 affinity for electrons because of their stable electronic configuration. From the list, Ar is the least in terms of electron affinity.

Potassium is a metal with large electropositivity which describes the tendency of an atom to lose electrons. Potassium would readily lose electrons instead of gaining.

Between Arsenic and Selenium: Arsenic belongs to group V and Selenium group VI. The two elements both belong to period IV on the periodic table. Across a period, electron affinity increases due to increase in nuclear charge. Therefore, Selenium would have a greater electron affinity compared to Arsenic.

Fluorine has the highest electron affinity of all. It needs just an electron to complete its octet.

A scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, Na3PO4, for a laboratory experiment. How many grams of Na3PO4

ddd [48]

Answer:

178.35g

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution can be calculated using the formula:

Molarity = number of moles ÷ volume

Based on the information provided in this question, molarity (M) of the solution = 1.50 M, volume = 725 mL = 725/1000 = 0.725L, n = ?

1.50 = n / 0.725

n = 1.50 × 0.725

n = 1.0875mol

Molar mass of Na3PO4

23(3) + 31 + 16(4)

= 69 + 31 + 64

= 164g/mol

Mole = mass ÷ molar mass

1.0875 = mass/164

mass = 178.35g

A piece of wood near a fire is at 23°C. It gains 1,160 joules of heat from the fire and reaches a temperature of 42°C. The speci

Molodets [167]

Answer:

35.578g or 36g if you round

Explanation:

Q=mc ∆∅ where ∅ is temperature difference

1160= m x 1.716 x (42-23)

m = 1160/ 1.716 x19

m=35.578g

m = 36g to nearest whole number
