Horizontal rows are called periods. As you travel downwards, the period is changing. (Oxygen in period 2, sulfur in period 3, and selenium in period 4)

<u>Answer: </u>The size of the element is changing.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxygen, sulfur and selenium are the elements which belong to Group 16 and periods 2, 3 and 4 respectively.

Atomic size of an element is defined as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost shell.

In a periodic table, the size of an element decreases as we move across a period and increases as we move down the group.

Down the group, new shell is getting added around the nucleus and electron is getting added in the new shell. Hence, the distance of the outermost shell from nucleus increases.

Therefore, the size of the element is changing.

What is the new mass/volume percent (m/v) of a KOH solution that is prepared by diluting 110 mL of a 6.0% (m/v) KOH solution to
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The new mass/volume percent is 2.0% (m/v)

Explanation:

Dilution is a procedure by which the concentration of a solution is decreased, generally with the addition of a diluent. In other words, dilution is a process in which a concentrated solution is always started, to which a greater volume of solvent is added, causing the concentration and volume of the resulting solution to change. But the amount of solute used to prepare the initial solution remains the same.

The calculation of a dilution is made by:

Cinitial. Vinitial = Cfinal. Vfinal

where C indicates concentration and V indicates volume.

In this case:

  • Cinitial: 6.0% (m/v)
  • Vinitial: 110 mL
  • Cfinal: ?
  • Vfinal: 330 mL

Replacing:

6.0% (m/v) * 110 mL= Cfinal* 330 mL

Solving:

Cfinal=\frac{ 6.0 (m/v)*110 mL}{330 mL}

Cfinal=   2.0% (m/v)

<u><em>The new mass/volume percent is 2.0% (m/v)</em></u>

What is the oxidation of KCL?
Assoli18 [71]

Rules:

1) The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.

2)The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.

3) The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.

4) The sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a neutral compound is 0.

KCl is an ionic compound. Consists of K+ ions and Cl- ions.

Oxidation of K= +1 (rules 1 and 2)

Oxidation of Cl= -1 (rules 1 and 3)

Rule 4 also applies-  +1 + (-1)= 0- a neutral compound

Hope this helps :)

What is the general formula for a secondary amine? rnh2 h2nrnh2 rn2h r2nh
zvonat [6]

The general fomula of the amine group ought to be R2NH because, the two hydrogen atoms of ammonia have been substituted by alkyl groups.

<h3>What is a secondary amine?</h3>

A secondary amine is one in which two alkyl groups are subtituted on the nitrohen atom of ammonia.

This implies that the general fomula of the amine group ought to be R2NH. This is because, the two hydrogen atoms of ammonia have been substituted by alkyl groups.

One mole of neon, a monatomic gas, starts out at conditions of standard temperature and pressure. the gas is heated at constant
Anna71 [15]
<span>We can use the ideal gas law PV=nRT For the first phase The starting temperature (T1) is 273.15K (0C). n is 1 mole, R is a constant, P = 1 atm, V1 is unknown. The end temperature (T2) is unknown, n= 1 mol, R is a constant, P = 3*P1= 3 atm, V2=V1 Since n, R, and V will be constant between the two conditions: P1/T1=P2/T2 or T2= (P2*T1)/(P1) so T2= (3 atm*273.15K)/(1 atm)= 3*273.15= 816.45K For the second phase: Only the temperature and volume change while n, P, and R are constant between the start and finish. So: V1/T1=V2/T2 While we don't know the initial volume, we know that V2=2*V1 and T1=816.45K So T2=(V2*T1)/V1= (2*V1*T1)/V1=2*T1= 2*816.45K= 1638.9K To find the total heat added to the gas you need to subtract the original amount of heat so 1638.9K-273.15K= 1365.75K</span>
