State the number of electrons that must be lost by atoms of

1 answer:

4 0

<u>The number of electrons that must be lost by atoms of each given to achieve a stable electron configuration are as follows: </u>

Li has to lose 1 electron
Ca has to lose 2 electrons
Ga has to lose 13 electrons
Cs has to lose 1 electron
Ba has to lose 2 electrons.

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that the elements in the last group or we can stay the noble gases have the most stable electron configuration. So if any other element has to attain stable electron configuration, either they have to loose electrons to attain the electronic configuration similar to its closest noble gas element or they have to attain extra electron to reach the electronic configuration of its nearest noble gas element.

In this case, the question is stated to determine the number of electrons lost by the atoms to reach its stable electron configuration. Thus, the outermost shell electrons or the valence state electrons can be lost by the element to attain the electronic configuration of its nearest noble gas element.

So, the elements given in the question need to lose the electrons such that the electronic configuration of the element after losing of electrons will be equal to the electronic configuration of noble elements. This attainment of noble gas configuration by the elements will be achieving the stable electron configuration.

Be sure to answer all parts. Consider the reaction A + B → Products From the following data obtained at a certain temperature, d

worty [1.4K]

Answer : The order of reaction with respect to A is, first order reaction.

The order of reaction with respect to B is, zero order reaction.

The overall order of reaction is, first order reaction.

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$A+B\rightarrow Products$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b$

where,

a = order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B

Expression for rate law for first observation:

$3.20\times 10^{-1}=k(1.50)^a(1.50)^b$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

$3.20\times 10^{-1}=k(1.50)^a(2.50)^b$ ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

$6.40\times 10^{-1}=k(3.00)^a(1.50)^b$ ....(3)

Dividing 1 from 2, we get:

$\frac{3.20\times 10^{-1}}{3.20\times 10^{-1}}=\frac{k(1.50)^a(2.50)^b}{k(1.50)^a(1.50)^b}\\\\1=1.66^b\\b=0$

Dividing 1 from 3, we get:

$\frac{6.40\times 10^{-1}}{3.20\times 10^{-1}}=\frac{k(3.00)^a(1.50)^b}{k(1.50)^a(1.50)^b}\\\\2=2^a\\a=1$

Thus, the rate law becomes:

$\text{Rate}=k[A]^1[B]^0$

$\text{Rate}=k[A]$

Thus,

The order of reaction with respect to A is, first order reaction.

The order of reaction with respect to B is, zero order reaction.

The overall order of reaction is, first order reaction.

One isotope of oxygen differs from another isotope of oxygen in *

Reptile [31]

Each isotope of Oxygen has a different number of neutrons

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The elements in nature have several types of isotopes

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

Isotopes are atoms has the same number of protons but has a different number of neutrons.

So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)

Some of the isotopes of oxygen are:

$\tt _8^{16}O,_8^{17}O,_8^{18}O$

Each isotope has 8 protons and 8 electrons but has a different number of neutrons

For O-16: number of neutrons = 16-8 = 8

For O-17: number of neutrons = 17-8 = 9

For O-18: number of neutrons = 18-8 = 10
