Answer:

The two elements are Argon and Helium .

They are noble gas  and are not reactive

Explanation:

The two kinds of element are argon and helium. These two element were discovered in 1892 by a Scottish chemist Williams Ramsay.

These two elements are known as noble gas or inert gas  because of how hard they find it to react with other elements.

Elements back then were discovered through their reactivity with other elements but It took so long to discover these elements(argon and helium) because of their unreactive nature . Combine with the fact that they were odorless, tasteless and colorless it was more hard to discover them.

Your Question: There are two kinds of elements that didn't appear on the periodic table until after 1892. What kinds are they and why do you think it took so long to discover them?

The Answer: Moseley’s analysis enabled chemists to refine the table further  and reveal more gaps, which suggested that there were more new  elements waiting to be discovered, with atomic numbers 43, 61, 72  and 75. Scientists subsequently found these elements—now  known as technetium, promethium, hafnium and rhenium,  respectively.

Explanation: Physicist Henry Moseley discovered the atomic number of each element using x-rays, which led to more accurate organization of the periodic table. We will cover his life and discovery of the relationship between atomic number and x-ray frequency, known as Moseley's Law.

Remember to read study guides, lessons and notes to rely yourself on; key to success is working hard. Good Luck!

HELP ASAP: Determine the enthalpy change of the following reaction: CH4 + 4Cl2 -&gt; CCl4+ 4HCl 
Annette [7]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

In this question, we are to calculate the enthalpy of change of the reaction. ΔH

To be able to do that, we use the Hess’ law and it involves the subtraction of the summed heat reaction of the reactants from that of the product.

Thus, mathematically, the enthalpy of change of the reaction would be;

[ΔH(CCl4) + 4 ΔH(HCl)] - [ΔH(CH4) + 4 ΔH(Cl2)]

We can see that we multiplied some heat change by some numbers. This is corresponding to the number of moles of that compound in question in the reaction.

Also, for diatomic gases such as chlorine in the reaction above, the heat of reaction is zero.

Thus, we can have the modified equation as follows;

[ΔH(CCl4) + 4 ΔH(HCl)] - [ΔH(CH4)]

Substituting the values we have according to the question, we have;

-95.98 + 4(-92.3) -(-17.9)

= -95.98 - 369.2 + 17.9

= -447.28 KJ/mol

Consider the following reaction at 298 K.
Jlenok [28]

Answer and Explanation:

The reaction is in the gas phase, so the equilibrium constant is expressed in terms of the partial pressures (P) of the products and reactants, as follows:

Kp = \frac{P^{2}_{SO_{3}  } }{P_{SO_{2}} ^{2}P_{O_{2}}  }

We have the following data:

P(SO₃) = 2.6 atm

P(O₂) = 0.43 atm

We need Kp for this reaction. We can assume that in Appendix 4 we found that Kp = 7 x 10²⁴.

Then, we introduce the data in the equilibrium constant expression to calculate the partial pressure f SO₂ (PSO₂), as follows:

P_{SO_{2} } = \sqrt{\frac{P_{SO_{3} } ^{2} }{Kp P_{O_{2} } } } = \sqrt{\frac{(2.6 atm)^{2} }{(7 x 10^{24)}(0.43 atm) } } = 1.5 x 10^{-12} atm

Therefore, the partial pressure of SO₂ is 1.5 x 10⁻¹² atm (for the given Kp).

Which of the following is an exothermic reaction?
defon

Chemical reactions can be broadly classified into two categories from the context of heat requirement. These include; endothermic and exothermic reactions.

Endothermic reactions proceed with the absorption of heat while exothermic reactions are accompanied by the evolution of heat.

1) Oxidation of iron involves reaction of elemental iron with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust). This is essentially a corrosion reaction in which the metallic bonds in Fe are broken and new bonds between Fe and O are formed, This is an exothermic reaction

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

Ans D)

2) The process of condensation i.e. phase change liquid to solid (or gas to liquid) involves release of heat to the surroundings, hence it will be an exothermic reaction.

Ans B)

3) Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by a 1 C. Typically, liquids and gases are used as coolants. For a coolant to be efficient, it must have a high specific heat.

Ans B)
