Which element is least likely to undergo a chemical reaction?

2 answers:

7 0

The elements least likely to undergo a chemical reaction are:
Gold: Au
Silver: Ag
Platinum: Pt

They are located very low in The Reactivity Series and hence don't react with any other substance. That is why their market value is pretty high.

Answer:

Helium

Explanation:

Helium is most likely to undergo a chemical reaction because

It has a complete electron shell, so it does not need any more electrons
Its electrons are closest to the nucleus, so it is extremely difficult to remove them

Drag each item to indicate whether it is related to Aristotle's or Ptolemy's model of the solar system, or to both. Some items m

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Aristotle's Model :

geocentric

planets fixed on nested spheres

Ptolemy's model:

geocentric

planets fixed on epicycles

accurately predicted the positions of the planets

Explanation:

Let's begin by the fact both models are geocentric and make a brief explanation of them:

Aristotle's Model :

Aristotle built his model based on observations and philosophical assumptions, not on measurements or calculations, then he mistakenly thought the Earth was the center of the universe.

So, according to this model, the universe was spherical and finite, with the Earth immobile at its center, composed of the four fundamental elements (made up of spherical layers): ground, water, air and fire; and the Sun along with the fixed planets in their respective concentric spheres (also called nested spheres) revolving around the Earth.

Ptolemy's model:

Ptolemy's model of the universe was also geocentric, placing the Earth motionless in the center of the known universe and was the accepted model for a long time during the Middle Ages.

In this sense, ccording to Ptolemy's model of the universe our planet remains stationary while the other planets, the Moon and the Sun describe complicated orbits around it (called epicycles).

However, this model predicted with an acceptable accuracy for that time the motion of the known planets, until Copernicus appeared with the revolutionary Heliocentric model.

Calculate the solubility at 25°C of CuBr in pure water and in a 0.0120M CoBr2 solution. You'll find Ksp data in the ALEKS Data t

iragen [17]

Answer:

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M

Explanation:

To calculate the solubility of CuBr in pure water (S) we will use an ICE Chart. We identify 3 stages (Initial-Change-Equilibrium) and complete each row with the concentration or change in concentration. Let's consider the solution of CuBr.

CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I 0 0

C +S +S

E S S

The solubility product (Ksp) is:

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S²

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

Solubility in 0.0120 M CoBr₂ (S')

First, we will consider the ionization of CoBr₂, a strong electrolyte.

CoBr₂(aq) → Co²⁺(aq) + 2 Br⁻(aq)

1 mole of CoBr₂ produces 2 moles of Br⁻. Then, the concentration of Br⁻ will be 2 × 0.0120 M = 0.0240 M.

Then,

CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I 0 0.0240

C +S' +S'

E S' 0.0240 + S'

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S' . (0.0240 + S')

In the term (0.0240 + S'), S' is very small so we can neglect it to simplify the calculations.

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M
