There are some exceptions to the trends of first and successive ionization energies. For each of the following pairs, explain wh

ich ionization energy would be higher:
(a) IE₁ of Ga or IE₁ of Ge
(b) IE₂ of Ga or IE₂ of Ge
(c) IE₃ of Ga or IE₃ of Ge
(d) IE₄ of Ga or IE₄ of Ge

Explanation:

a) IE1 of Germenium.  ionization energy decreases down the group.

b) Here IE2 of Ga is higher because second valence electron of gallium is in s orbital whereas second valence electron of germenium is in p orbital.

c) IE3 of Ge is higher as this follows the trend.

d)IE4 of Ga is higher because the 4th valence electron of Ga is a core electron and the for Ge it is in s orbital and it takes higher energy to break a core electron than the orbital ones.

Answer:

(b) IE₂ of Ga >  IE₂ of Ge

Explanation:

Electronic configuration of Ga is [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s²4p¹

Electronic configuration of Ge is [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s²4p²

After 1st ionisation , Ga  becomes [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s² and becomes stable . Its

2 nd ionisation requires higher amount of ionisation energy. In case of Ge , there are 2 electrons in outermost orbital so it becomes stable after ionisation of 2 electrons.

What bonds are broken and octane combustion?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Common combustion reactions break the bonds of hydrocarbon molecules,

Explanation:

the resulting water and carbon dioxide bonds always release more energy than was used to break the original hydrocarbon bonds. That's why burning materials mainly made up of hydrocarbons produces energy and is exothermic.

SiCl4 + H2O = H4SiO4 + HCl
vichka [17]

Hey there!

Balance the equation:

SiCl₄ + H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + HCl

Balance H.

2 on the left, 5 on the right. Add a coefficient of 3 in front of H₂O and a coefficient of 2 in front of HCl.

SiCl₄ + 3H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 2HCl  

Balance O.

3 on the left, 4 on the right. Change the coefficient of 3 in front of H₂O to a 4.

SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 2HCl  

This unbalanced our H, so change the coefficient of 2 in front of HCl to a 4.

SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 4HCl  

Balance Cl.

4 on the left, 4 on the right. Already balanced.

Balance Si.

1 on the left, 1 on the right. Already balanced.

Our final balanced equation:

SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 4HCl

Hope this helps!
