Answer: decreases

Explanation:

Atomic radius in a period from left to right decreases due to increase in nuclear charge.

On moving from left to right, electrons are getting added in outer shell and no of protons also increased which results increase in nuclear charge. Increased nulcear charge holds the electrons tigthly hence electrons moves close to nucleus. So radius decreases.

Which of the following is a sign a chemical reaction has occurred? A liquid changes to a solid when cooled. A liquid forms bubbl

3241004551 [841]

The best answer is, “Two clear liquids combine and turn cloudy.”

When water freezes form a liquid to a solid. That’s a physical change.

When water boils, it forms bubbles. That’s a physical change.

When you mix ethanol and water, they form a clear solution. That’s a physical change.

Compare the solubility of silver chromate in each of the following aqueous solutions: Clear All 0.10 M AgCH3COO 0.10 M Na2CrO4 0

slavikrds [6]

Solution :

Comparing the solubility of silver chromate for the solutions :

$0.10 \ M \ AgCH_3COO$ ----- Less soluble than in pure water.

$0.10 \ M \ Na_2CrO_4$ ----- Less soluble than in pure water.

$0.10 \ M \ NH_4NO_3$ ----- Similar solubility as in the pure water

$0.10 \ M \ KCH_3COO$ ----- Similar solubility as in the pure water

The silver chromate dissociates to form :

$AgCrO_4 (s) \rightleftharpoons 2Ag^+ (aq) +CrO_4^{2-}(aq)$

When 0.1 M of $AgCH_3COO^-$ is added, the equilibrium shifts towards the reverse direction due to the common ion effect of $Ag^+$ , so the solubility of $Ag_2CrO_4$ decreases.

Both $AgCH_3COO$ and $KCH_3COO$ are neutral mediums, so they do not affect the solubility.

B. The following reaction takes place in a basic solution. (7 points)

Natali5045456 [20]

<u>Answer:</u> The final equation has hydroxide ions which indicate that the reaction has occurred in a basic medium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction take place simultaneously.

The oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species loses electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species increases.

A reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species gains electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species decreases.

The given redox reaction follows:

$MnO_4^-(aq)+NO_2^-(aq)\rightarrow MnO_2(s)+NO_3^-(aq)$

To balance the given redox reaction in basic medium, there are few steps to be followed:

Writing the given oxidation and reduction half-reactions for the given equation with the correct number of electrons

Oxidation half-reaction: $NO_2^-+2OH^-\rightarrow NO_3^-+H_2O+2e^-$

Reduction half-reaction: $MnO_4^-+2H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2+4OH^-$

Multiply each half-reaction by the correct number in order to balance charges for the two half-reactions

Oxidation half-reaction: $NO_2^-+2OH^-\rightarrow NO_3^-+H_2O+2e^-$ ( × 3)

Reduction half-reaction: $MnO_4^-+2H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2+4OH^-$ ( × 2)

The half-reactions now become:

Oxidation half-reaction: $3NO_2^-+6OH^-\rightarrow 3NO_3^-+3H_2O+6e^-$

Reduction half-reaction: $2MnO_4^-+4H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow 2MnO_2+8OH^-$

Add the equations and simplify to get a balanced equation

Overall redox reaction: $3NO_2^-+2MnO_4^-+H_2O\rightarrow 3NO_3^-+2MnO_2+2OH^-$

As we can see that in the overall redox reaction, hydroxide ions are released in the solution. Thus, making it a basic solution

Why does buck ministerfullerene act as a good lubricant

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Its molecules are made up of 60 carbon atoms joined together by strong covalent bonds. Molecules of C 60 are spherical. There are weak intermolecular forces between molecules of buckminsterfullerene. These need little energy to overcome, so buckminsterfullerene is slippery and has a low melting point.

I need help solving this!

zmey [24]

Answer: Moles of hydrogen required are 4.57 moles to make 146.6 grams of methane, $CH_{4}$ .

Explanation:

Given: Mass of methane = 146.6 g

As moles is the mass of a substance divided by its molar mass. So, moles of methane (molar mass = 16.04 g/mol) are calculated as follows.

$Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{146.6 g}{16.04 g/mol}\\= 9.14 mol$

The given reaction equation is as follows.

$C + 2H_{2} \rightarrow CH_{4}$

This shows that 2 moles of hydrogen gives 1 mole of methane. Hence, moles of hydrogen required to form 9.14 moles of methane is as follows.

$Moles of H_{2} = \frac{9.14}{2}\\= 4.57 mol$

Thus, we can conclude that moles of hydrogen required are 4.57 moles to make 146.6 grams of methane, $CH_{4}$ .
