elect the correct answer. The elements beryllium, calcium, and strontium are all in group 2. What is the correct relationship of
these elements regarding their ionization energy? A. Ca < Be < Sr B. Sr < Be < Ca C. Be < Ca < Sr D. Sr < Ca < Be E. Ca < Sr < Be
1 answer:
Answer:
D. Sr < Ca < Be
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Ionization energ</em>y decreases from top to bottom within a Group, because the valence electrons are further from the nucleus and therefore easier to remove.
Thus, <em>Sr has the lowest</em> ionization energy and <em>Be the highes</em>t.
The correct order is Sr < Ca < Be.

Answer: Concentration of in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M
Explanation:
Equilibrium concentration of = 0.729 M
The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,
Initial conc. x 0 0
At eqm. conc. (x-2y) M (y) M (3y) M
The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be:
3y = 0.729 M
y = 0.243 M
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :
concentration of in the equilibrium mixture =
Thus concentration of in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M
