Why are group 1 elements more reactive than group 2 elements?

Chemistry
2 answers:
sashaice [31]3 years ago

Answer:

its because in group 2 elements,outermost electron is difficult to be removed than group 1 elements

Hence group 2 elements are less reactive than group 1

The ideal gas heat capacity of nitrogen varies with temperature. It is given by:
hammer [34]

Answer:

A)  1059 J/mol

B)  17,920 J/mol

Explanation:

Given that:

Cp = 29.42 - (2.170*10^-3 ) T + (0.0582*10^-5 ) T2 + (1.305*10^-8 ) T3 – (0.823*10^-11) T4

R (constant) = 8.314

We know that:

C_p=C_v+R

We can determine C_v from above if we make C_v the subject of the formula as:

C_v=C_p-R

C_V = 29.42-(2.7*10^{-3})T+(5.82*10^{-7})T2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4-8.314

C_V = 21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T+(5.82*10^{-7})T2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4

A).

The formula for calculating change in internal energy is given as:

dU=C_vdT

If we integrate above data into the equation; it implies that:

U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T+(5.82*10^{-7})T2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4\,) du

U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T/1+(5.82*10^{-7})T2/2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3/3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4/4\,)

U2-U1= 1059J/mol

Hence, the internal energy that must be added to nitrogen in order to increase its temperature from 450 to 500 K = 1059 J/mol.

B).

If we repeat part A for an initial temperature of 273 K and final temperature of 1073 K.

then T = 273 K & T2 = 1073 K

∴

U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T/1+(5.82*10^{-7})T2/2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3/3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4/4\,)

U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})273/1+(5.82*10^{-7})1073/2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3/3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4/4\,)

U2-U1= 17,920 J/mol

Which of the following statements does NOT describe the anomeric carbon? A. This carbon is attached to two oxygens. B. This carb
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The answer is E. All of the statements describe the anomeric carbon.

Explanation:

When a sugar switches from its open form to its ring form, the carbon from the carbonyl (aldehyde if it is an aldose, or a ketone in the case of a ketose) suffers a nucleophilic addition by one of the hydroxyls in the chain, preferably one that will form a 5 or 6 membered ring after the reaction.

As such, the anomeric carbon will have two oxygens attached (The original one and the one that bonded when the ring closed).

It will be chiral, given that it has 4 different groups attached. (-OR,-OH,-H and -R, where R is the carbon chain).

The hydroxyl group can be in any position (Above of below the ring), depending on with side the addition took place. (See attachment)

It is the carbon of the carbonyl in the open-chain form of the sugar, because it is the only one that can react with the Hydroxyls.

How is a molecule of hydrogen formed from two hydrogen atoms?
Shtirlitz [24]
A molecule of hydrogen is formed by two hydrogen atoms, that is a fact.

How does it work? When two atoms, known as "diatomic" pair with another in a bond known non-polar covalent bonds. Where they equally share electrons. A Hydrogen atoms needs 1 more electrons to fill its first shell fully and have a full valence shell. So if two H's share their electrons, they'll both have a full V-Shell!

That's the basics of both the H-H bond and all the other diatomic bonds as well.
