All common cations are smaller than all common anions except one of thesea. Rubidiumb. Calciumc. Magnesiumd. sodium

1 answer:

6 0

The answer is <span>a. Rubidium

A cation is an ion that has a positive charge. The charge positive because it loses electrons. The radius of an atom is influenced by the electron because it is found at the outer layer of the atom. Since cation has less electron and anion get more electron, the radius of cation will be smaller than anion.
Rubidium is the biggest cation because it is located in the lowest row, thus having most electron count.</span>

How molecules react to an increase in temperature.

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

An increase in temperature typically increases the rate of reaction. An increase in temperature will raise the average kinetic energy of the reactant molecules. Therefore, a greater proportion of molecules will have the minimum energy necessary for an effective collision (Figure. 17.5 “Temperature and Reaction Rate”).

The pressure of nitrogen gas at 35°C is changed from 0.89 atm to 4.3 atm. What will be its final temperature in Kelvin?

Alja [10]

Answer: The final temperature in Kelvin is 1488

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$
