The first four ionization energies for an imaginary element, Xz, are E1 = 102 kcal, E2 = 186 kcal, E3 = 4021 kcal, and E4 = 4862

kcal. The number of valence electrons most probable as indicated by this ionization data is:

Answer: Two valence electrons.

Explanation: Ionization energy is the energy required to remove electrons from valence shell of an atom in its gaseous state.

More closer are the electrons to the nucleus, more energy is required to remove them. Ionization energy increases as the effective nuclear charge increases.

First two ionization energy values are low and there isn't a much difference between them but the third ionization energy is very much high as compared to first and second ionization energy values. The fourth ionization energy value is also closer to third ionization energy value.

It indicates that first and second electrons are removed from same shell. Similarly, third and fourth electrons are also removed from same shell which is different than the shell from which first and second electrons are removed.

So, outer most shell that is valence shell has only two electrons. Third ionization energy has increased a lot as the third electron is removed from the inner shell and first two electrons are removed from valence shell.

The graph above shows the changes in temperature recorded for the 2.00 l of h2o surrounding a constant-volume container in which
Otrada [13]

Answer:

25.2 kJ

Explanation:

The complete question is presented in the attached image to this answer.

Note that, the heat gained by the 2.00 L of water to raise its temperature from the initial value to its final value comes entirely from the combustion of the benzoic acid since there are no heat losses to the containing vessel or to the environment.

So, to obtained the heat released from the combustion of benzoic acid, we just calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of the water.

Q = mCΔT

To calculate the mass of water,

Density = (mass)/(volume)

Mass = Density × volume

Density = 1 g/mL

Volume = 2.00 L = 2000 mL

Mass = 1 × 2000 = 2000 g

C = specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g.°C

ΔT = (final temperature) - (Initial temperature)

From the graph,

Final temperature of water = 25°C

Initial temperature of water = 22°C

ΔT = 25 - 22 = 3°C

Q = (2000×4.2×3) = 25,200 J = 25.2 kJ

Hope this Helps!!!

Imagine the movement of a single gas molecule inside a container. Explain the particles motions in terms of kinetic- molecular t
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

we know that gas molecules move fast by hitting the container and they never meet,so if we have one single gas molecule then it will move slower . This is because it is alone in an empty container so until it hits the container to change it's movements it will make the process slower.

Read the explanation below to have a better idea based on the kinetic molecular theory.

Explanation:

Hello in this question we have a container and in it is a single gas molecule. So there is our gas molecule and in fact right there that violates the kinetic molecular theory. Because the kinetic molecular theory thinks of these particles as being dimension less points. Because there is so much space between particles. The particles themselves have such an insignificant volume as they can be thought of as dimension lys points. Okay. But anyway this particle is in rapid motion and this motion is essentially random. So it's moving and it will eventually hit the wall of its container. It's moving rapidly so it's going to hit it pretty quickly and when it hits the wall of that container Yeah, it is going to bounce off when it does that. It's a totally elastic collision. So that means there will be no energy transfer, no energy loss, no energy gained. It will just serve to change the direction of the particle. So when it hits the wall it's going to bounce back off the wall and continue in a straight line until it hits another wall and then it will bounce off that wall and it will continue moving in this motion in this motion its speed is related to the amount of energy it has and therefore its temperature. So if we add heat, it will move faster. If we remove heat or cool it down, it will move slower. So when we remove heat, it will move slower. The kinetic molecular theory says it will be constantly moving As long as it is above absolute zero. It's only at absolute zero or 0 Kelvin, where would stop moving. Okay, so all these things describe its motion. It's in rapid random motion in a straight line until it hits the wall of its container. Then it will rebound without a transfer of any energy. It will be totally elastic collision. If we were to heat it up, it would move faster. If we were to cool it down, it would move more slowly, we would have to cool it all the way down to absolute zero before it would stop moving. Right, so all of these things describe its motion. In terms of that kinetic molecular theory,

A sample of 0.3283 g of an ionic compound containing the bromide ion (Br−) is dissolved in water and treated with an excess of A
Pavel [41]

Answer:

92.49 %

Explanation:

We first calculate the number of moles n of AgBr in 0.7127 g

n = m/M where M = molar mass of AgBr = 187.77 g/mol and m = mass of AgBr formed = 0.7127 g

n = m/M = 0.7127g/187.77 g/mol = 0.0038 mol

Since 1 mol of Bromide ion Br⁻ forms 1 mol AgBr, number of moles of Br⁻ formed = 0.0038 mol and

From n = m/M

m = nM . Where m = mass of Bromide ion precipitate and M = Molar mass of Bromine = 79.904 g/mol

m = 0.0038 mol × 79.904 g/mol = 0.3036 g

% Br in compound = m₁/m₂ × 100%

m₁ = mass of Br in compound = m = 0.3036 g (Since the same amount of Br in the compound is the same amount in the precipitate.)

m₂ = mass of compound = 0.3283 g

% Br in compound = m₁/m₂ × 100% = 0.3036/0.3283 × 100% = 0.9249 × 100% = 92.49 %
