What group of elements generally have the lowest second ionization energy?

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: Group 2: alkaline earth metals.
Explanation: The second ionization energy is the energy required so that the molecule in the gaseous state would lose its second valence electron. Since all atoms tend to stabilize by having complete number of electrons in the valence shell (octet rule), thus, the elements having the lowest second ionozation energy will be those having 2 electrons in the outermost shell (the first ionozation energy removes the first outermost electron while the second ionozation energy removes the second one , thus, turning the atom into the stable state)

The pressure and temperature of N² and gas drops from 303kPa at 300K to 202²kPa at -73°C. If the initial volume is 2L, find the

Answer:

Gjvb

Explanation:

Using the combined gas law equation as follows:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (kPa)

P2 = final pressure (kPa)

V1 = initial volume (L)

V2 = final volume (L)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to this question;

T1 = 300K

T2 = -73 + 273 = 200K

P1 = 303kPa

P2 = 202kPa

V1 = 2L

V2 = ?

Using the above formula:

303 × 2/300 = 202 × V2/200

606/300 = 202V2/200

Cross multiply;

606 × 200 = 300 × 202V2

121200 = 60600V2

V2 = 121200/60600

V2 = 2L

The new volume is 2L

Assoli18 [71]

The temperature of the air is the property which primarily controls how much water can be present as a gas.

Meteorology is the study of the atmosphere. It primarily focuses on weather which is defined as the condition of the atmosphere at a certain time and place. It changes every day depending on earth location. There are five factors that affect weather namely, temperature, pressure, humidity, wind and precipitation.

The question above primarily talks about humidity-the amount of water vapor in the air. As the temperature increases, the air or gas can hold more water. The warmer the air is, the more water it can possibly hold as vapor.
