Moving freely between the cations

deff fn [24]3 years ago

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The valence electrons are the electrons which are present in the outermost shell of an atom.  

A silver atom contains a positive charge as silver is a cation.

In a piece of silver, the silver atoms will be linked together. As it is known that silver is a cation, it will hold a positive charge.

Therefore, it can be concluded that in a piece of silver, the valence electrons will be moving freely between the cations.

Uppose you have two 1-L flasks, one containing a gas with a molar mass of 30 g and the other a gas with a molar mass of 60 g. Bo
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: Flask X

Explanation:

Data

                            Flask X              Flask B

Molar mass            30 g                    60 g

mass                       1.2g                     1.2 g

Pressure                  1 atm                   0.5 atm

Formula                  PV = nRT

                         In the formula, we can notice that the number of moles (n)

                         is directly proportional to the pressure.

Then, let's calculate the number of moles

               flask X                                flask Y

  30 g  ---------------  1 mol           60 g -------------- 1 mol

  1.2 g ----------------   x                 1.2 g -------------   x

   x = (1.2 x 1) / 30                        x = (1.2 x 1) / 60

   x = 0.04 mol                             x = 0.02 mol

From the results, we conclude that the flask with the gas of molar mass 30g is the flask with pressure of 1 atm, because the higher the number of moles, the higher the pressure.

How can you tell whether one glass of water has more thermal energy than another, identical glass of water
kumpel [21]
You can know which one has more thermal energy by testing the temperature, if it is warmer the more energy it has because the particles are going faster than they would if it was cold. because, when its cold the particles slow down until they are so cold they are frozen. (ice).

7.5 moles of nitrogen gas (N2) is formed in the following reaction. How many grams
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Mass = 255 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of nitrogen = 7.5 mol

Mass of ammonia formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3H₂ + N₂      →    2NH₃

Now we will compare the moles of nitrogen and ammonia.

             N₂         :        NH₃

               1          :         2

              7.5       :       2/1×7.5 = 15

Mass of ammonia:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 15 mol × 17 g/mol

Mass = 255 g

As a result of the transfer of an electron from a less electronegative atom to a more electronegative atom,
Viktor [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option d.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an element to attract the shared pair of electron towards itself in a compound.

When electron is transferred from less electronegative atom to more electronegative atom.

The atom which is more electronegative gains electron and undergoes reduction reaction.

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

During the transfer of electrons, energy is released when an electron looses is potential energy during the transfer.

Hence, the correct answer is Option d.
