Explanation:

Chemical properties are defined as the properties which tend to show change in chemical composition of a substance.

For example, toxicity, reactivity, combustion etc are all chemical properties.

It is known that elements which belong to same period show similar chemical properties.

This is because elements that lie in the same group have same number of valence electrons. Hence, they tend to show same type of reactivity which makes them exhibit similar chemical properties.

Thus, we can conclude that elements in group via (group 16) have similar properties because they all have 6 valence electrons.

Explain why a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.
brilliants [131]

When you flick on a light with a regular incandescent bulb, electricity is converted to heat in the tiny, tungsten wire inside. In a 75-watt bulb, the wire heats up to about 4600 degrees Fahrenheit! At such a high temperature, the energy radiating from the wire includes some visible light. Incandescent light bulbs aren’t the most efficient light source, though, because 90% of the electricity they use produces heat, while a measly 10% produces light.

Fluorescent bulbs are designed to produce light without so much heat. Forty percent of the electricity they use produces light, which might not sound so impressive unless you compare it with incandescents.

When you turn on a fluorescent light, electrons collide with mercury atoms inside the bulb, producing ultraviolet light. We can’t see ultraviolet light, so there’s a thin layer of phosphor powder inside the bulb to convert the ultraviolet to visible light. Fluorescent bulbs stay cooler because this process produces much less heat to begin with, and because their bigger size helps disperse heat more quickly.

What do these heated differences mean for energy efficiency? A regular incandescent light bulb uses about four times as much energy as a fluorescent bulb, to produce the same amount of light.

Predict the products from theses reaction, and balance the equations. Include phase symbols.
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

2 K(s) + Cl₂(g) ⟶ 2 KCl(s)

2 Cu(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ 2 CuO(s)

Explanation:

Both reactions are synthesis reactions (two substances combine to form another).

Reaction: K(s) + Cl₂(g) ⟶

The product is the binary salt KCl. The balanced chemical equation is:

2 K(s) + Cl₂(g) ⟶ 2 KCl(s)

Reaction: Cu(s) + O₂(g) ⟶

The most likely product is the metal oxide CuO. The balanced chemical equation is:

2 Cu(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ 2 CuO(s)

Find the molarity of the following solution:
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

2.67 M

Explanation:

Molarity, which is the molar concentration of a substance, can be calculated using the formula;

M = n/V

Where;

M = molarity (M)

n = number of moles (mol)

V = volume (Litres)

Based on the provided information in this question, mass of lithium sulfate (Li2SO4) = 734g, volume = 2.5L

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of Li2SO4 = 7(2) + 32 + 16(4)

= 14 + 32 + 64

= 110g/mol

Mole = 734/110

Mole (n) = 6.67moles

Molarity = n/V

Molarity = 6.67/2.5

Molarity = 2.668

Molarity of Li2SO4 in the solution is 2.67 M

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

The  value is   K_b  =   1.89 *10^{-6}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  voltage of the cell is  V  =  0.731 \  V

Generally K_b is mathematically represented as  

           K_b  =  \frac{K_w }{ K_a }

Where  K_w  is the equilibrium constant for this auto-ionization of water with a value  K_w  =  1.0 *10^{-14}

Generally the E_{cell} is mathematically represented as

       E_{cell} =  V  -  E_{SCE}

=>     E_{cell} =  0.731 - 0.241

=>       E_{cell} =   0.49 V

This  E_{cell} is mathematically represented as

             E_{cell} =  \frac{0.0592}{n} *  log K_a

Where n is the number of moles which in this question is  n = 1

         So  

         0.490 =  \frac{0.0592}{1}  *  log K_a

=>      K_a  =  5.30*10^{-9}

So  

     K_b  =  \frac{ K_w}{ K_a}

=>   K_b  =  \frac{1.0 *10^{-14}}{ 5.30*10^{-9}}

=>    K_b  =   1.89 *10^{-6}
