Answer is: a) ionization energy and electronegativity.
1) The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
Barium, potassium and arsenic are metals (easily lost valence electrons), chlorine is nonmetal (easily gain electrons).
Alkaline metals (far left in Periodic table) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron), earth alkaline metals (next right to alkaline metals) have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons.
Nonmetals are far right in the main group and they have highest ionization energy, because they have many valence electrons.
2) Electronegativity (χ) is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.
Atoms with higher electronegativity attracts more electrons towards it, electrons are closer to that atom.
Nonmetals hava higher electronegativity than metals and metalloids.
3) The atomic radius decreases across the periods because an increasing number of protons, because greater attraction between the protons and electrons.
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Mass flow rate of mixture = 1368 kg/hr
in feed = 40 mole%
This means that
in feed = (100 - 40)% = 60%
We assume that there are 100 total moles/hr of gas
in feed stream.
Hence, calculate the total mass flow rate as follows.
40 moles/hr of N_{2}/hr (28 g/mol of
) + 60 moles/hr of
(2 g/mol of
)
= 1120 g/hr + 120 g/hr
= 1240 g/hr
=
(as 1 kg = 1000 g)
= 1.240 kg/hr
Now, we will calculate mol/hr in the actual feed stream as follows.

= 110322.58 moles/hr
It is given that amount of nitrogen present in the feed stream is 40%. Hence, calculate the flow of
into the reactor as follows.

= 44129.03 mol/hr
As 1 mole of nitrogen has 28 g/mol of mass or 0.028 kg.
Therefore, calculate the rate flow of
into the reactor as follows.

= 1235.612 kg/hr
Thus, we can conclude that the the feed rate of pure nitrogen to the mixer is 1235.612 kg/hr.

Periodic trends are specific patterns that are present in the periodic table that include size, electronic properties, melting point, electronegativity and metallic character. The trends exist due to the similar atomic structure of the elements within each group family.</span>
