Rank the nonmetals in each set from most reactive (1) to least reactive (3). Bromine: Chlorine: Iodine:

Physics
2 answers:
ANEK [815]3 years ago

The most reactive element of this list is Chlorine, the next most reactive is bromine, and the least reactive is iodine.

All of these three elements are group 7 elements in the periodic table. It is known that the reactivity of group 7 elements decreases down the group. The most reactive element in this group is Flourine  with reactivity decreasing down the group.

The reason for this decrease in reactivity is that as you go down the group, the distance between the positive nucleus that attracts valence electrons increases, decreasing the electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and the outer electrons. The other reason is that the electrons in lower energy levels closer to the nucleus repel and shield the electrons in the outermost shell or energy level of the atom.

Chlorine>Bromine>Iodine.

<u>Answer:</u> The order of reactivity of non-metals from most reactive to least reactive is \text{Chlorine}>\text{Bromine}>\text{Iodine}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reactivity of a non-metal is defined as the tendency of an element to gain electrons. The reactivity increases as we move across a period and it  decreases as we move down the group.

When the size of an element increases, the valence electrons gets away from the nucleus and the tendency of an element to gain electrons decreases.

In a group, the size of an element increases because there is an addition of new shell and electron is added in that shell.

The given elements belong to the same group which is Group 17.

Chlorine has the smallest size, then bromine and then iodine.

Hence, the order of reactivity of non-metals from most reactive to least reactive is \text{Chlorine}>\text{Bromine}>\text{Iodine}

The cannon on a battleship can fire a shell a maximum distance of 26.0 km.
Alla [95]
It is possible to demonstrate that the maximum distance occurs when the angle at which the projectile is fired is \theta = 45^{\circ}.
In fact, the laws of motions on both x- and y- directions are
S_x(t)= v_0 cos \theta t
S_y(t)= v_0 \sin \theta t -  \frac{1}{2} gt^2
From the second equation, we get the time t at which the projectile hits the ground, by requiring S_y(t)=0, and we get:
t= \frac{2 v_0 \sin \theta}{g}
And inserting this value into Sx(t), we find
S_x(t) = 2  \frac{v_0^2}{g}  \sin \theta \cos \theta= \frac{v_0^2}{g} \sin (2\theta)
And this value is maximum when \theta=45^{\circ}, so this is the angle at which the projectile reaches its maximum distance.

So now we can take again the law of motion on the x-axis
S_x(t)=  \frac{v_0^2}{g} \sin (2\theta)
And by using S_x = 26 km=26000 m, we find the value of the initial velocity v0:
v_0 =  \sqrt{ \frac{S_x g}{\sin (2\theta)} } = \sqrt{ \frac{(26000m)(9.81m/s^2)}{\sin (2\cdot 45^{\circ})} } =505 m/s

Use the paragraph to answer the question.
nadezda [96]

The characteristic of science that is best exemplified by the paragraph presented is "It is falsifiable and reproducible."

<h3>What is science?</h3>

Science can be mostly defined as a set of methods and principles that aim at objectively understanding and explaining the phenomena that occurs in the world.

These set of methods and principle lead to theories and laws that describe how a specific phenomenon occurs.

<h3>What does "It is falsifiable and reproducible"?</h3>

This is a basic principle that implies hypotheses about a specific phenomenon can be tested using experiments and this can lead to either the confirmation of the hypothesis or dispproved. Moreover, same experiments can be used and these will have similar results.

This principle matches the paragraph because the same experiment leads to same results. Moreover, previous ideas about a phenomenon were disproved.
