Consider the group 1A element sodium (atomic number 11), the group 3A element aluminum (atomic number 13), and the group 7A elem

ent chlorine (atomic number 17). These elements are in period 3. How are the first ionization energies of these elements related?

Ionization energy is the energy needed to remove a valence electrón from a gaseous atom.

The energy needed to remove the first electron is the first ionization energy.

The stronger the atom atracts its electrons the higher the ionization energy.

A low ionization energy means that the atom may loose one electron easily to form a positive ion (cation)

In the period 3, sodium has the lowest ionization energy (it forms sodium ion easily), aluminium has a higher ionization energy (meaning that it is more difficult to form a positive ion) and Chlorine will never lose an electron to form a positive ion (on the contrary Chlorine is willing to accept one electron from other atom to form a negative ion, i.e. an anion).

The growing of the ionization energy inside a period is due to the size of the growing positive charge (number of protons) in the nucleous, which implies a stronger atraction to the electrons of valence.

If 8.6 g of ch4 and 5.9 g of o2 react, what is the mass, in grams, of h2o that is produced?
Alenkasestr [34]
This may seem confusing because they give you two masses, but all you have to do is pick one to do the calculations. Personally, I would pick O2, since the molar mass is easier to calculate. The answer would be 3.3 g (rounded for sig figs). To get this, first take the 5.9 grams of O2 and convert it to moles by dividing by the molar mass of oxygen gas, which is 32. Then, multiply both by the mole-mole ratio, which is 2:2, or simply 1:1. After that, multiply that by 18g, which is the molar mass of water to get grams of water. 

REMEMBER, you have to write and balance the chemical equation before you can do any of that work. 
That happens to be CH4 + 2O2 => CO2 + 2H2O

There are two different compounds of sulfur and fluorine.
Sedaia [141]
<span>1.18 x 3 = 3.55 </span>
find  ratio of F to F in each compound
.   according to law of multiple proportions  that the masses of one element which combine with a fixed mass of the second element are in a ratio of whole numbers.
now  F is  "one element" and S has  "fixed mass",
the ratio of F6 to Fx = 3:1 
<span>thats why  x= 2
there is less F in SFx
  the ratio is 3:1.
 dividing 6 by 3 and you get 2</span>

The mass lost by the positive electron should equal the mass gained by the negative electrode suggest two reasons why the result
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The gain in mass by the negative electrode is the same as the loss in mass by the positive electrode. So the copper deposited on the negative electrode must be the same copper ions that are lost from the positive electrode.
