Why is it harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon, or, to put it another way, why are the valence electrons

of fluorine more strongly bound than those of carbon?
Chemistry

The valence electrons of both fluorine and
carbon are found at about the same distance
from their respective nuclei but the greater
positive charge of the fluorine nucleus attracts
its valence electrons more strongly.

On a coordinate plane, which single transformation could map point A (3,-4) onto point A' (1.5,-2)? *
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: A dilation with rule: (x,y)\to(\dfrac12x,\dfrac12y)

Explanation:

A dilation is a non-rigid transformation that creates an image that is the same shape as the original but has a different size.

It uses a scale factor k such that

(x,y)\to(kx,ky)

(x,y)= coordinates of original figure

(kx,ky) = corresponding coordinate in the image.

To transform: A (3,-4) onto point A' (1.5,-2).

Using scale factor k= \dfrac12, we have

A(3,-4)\to A'(\dfrac12\times3, \dfrac12\times-4)=A'(1.5,-2)

Required rule: (x,y)\to(\dfrac12x,\dfrac12y)

Explain why is sodium less reactive than potassium
leva [86]

Answer:

As potassium is larger than sodium, potassium's valence electron is at a greater distance from the attractive nucleus and is so removed more easily than sodium's valence electron. As it is removed more easily, it requires less energy, and can be said to be more reactive.

Consider the reaction cacn2 + 3 h2o → caco3 + 2 nh3 . how much caco3 is produced if 47.5 moles nh3 are produced? 1. 0.950 g 2. 9
zhannawk [14.2K]
The  CaCO3  produced  if  47.5   moles of  NH3  produced  is   calculated  as  follows

CaCN2  +3H2O  = CaCO3  + 2NH3

by  use   of  mole  ratio  between  CaCO3 to NH3  which  is 1:2  the  moles  of  CaCO3  is therefore =  47.5 /2= 23.75  moles

mass of CaCO3   is  therefore = moles  x  molar  mass
= 23.75 moles  x  100g/mol=  2375 grams   which  is approximate   2380  grams(answer 6)
