Element A has seven valence electrons. How does its reactivity compare to that of element B, which has four valence electrons?

Chemistry

Answer:

The correct answer is "Element A is more reactive".

Explanation:

The missing options of this question are:

Element A is more reactive.

Element A is less reactive.

Element A and B have the same reactivity.

Element A has no reactivity.

The correct answer is "Element A is more reactive".

Valence electrons are defined as outer shell electron that can participate in the formation of chemical bonds with other atoms. The atoms tend to have either 0 or 8 valence electrons. Therefore, depending in the number of valence electrons, an atom can either give their valence electrons (1 to 3 electrons) or try to take more valence electrons (4 to 7 electrons). Element A with 7 valence electrons is more reactive that Element B with 4 valence electrons, because Element A only needs 1 more electron to full its 8 valence electrons.

A Carnot cycle operates between the temperatures limits of 400 K and 1600 K, and produces 3600 kW of net power. The rate of entr
TiliK225 [7]

The rate of entropy change:

The rate of entropy change of the working fluid during the heat addition process is 3 kW/K

What is the Carnot cycle?

  • The Carnot Cycle is a thermodynamic cycle made up of reversible isothermal expansion, adiabatic expansion, isothermal compression, and adiabatic compression processes in succession.
  • The ratio of the heat absorbed to the temperature at which the heat was absorbed determines the change in entropy.

The entropy of a system:

The rate of heat addition is expressed as,

Q = \frac{WT_{H}}{T_{H}- T_{L}}

The entropy of a system is a measure of how disorderly a system is getting. The rate of entropy generation during heat addition is,

S_{gen} = \frac{Q}{T_{H}} = \frac{W}{T_{H} - T_{L}}

Calculation:

<u>Given:</u>

T_{L} = 400K

T_{H} = 1600K

W = 3600 kW

Put all the values in the above equation, and we get,

S_{gen} = \frac{W}{T_{H} - T_{L}} = \frac{3600}{1600-400} = 3 kW/K

The rate of entropy change is 3 kW/K

If the titrant has a molarity of 0.1000 m and there are 45.00 ml of analyte present, what is the molarity of the analyte?
marysya [2.9K]
Given: 

Concentration of titrant = 0.1000 M
Volume of titrant = 45 mL

The molarity of analyte depends on the amount of the analyte present in the titrated solution. If the amount of analyte is 20 mL, then its concentration is:

45ml * 0.10 M = C analyte * 20 ml

C analyte = 0.225 M

Which of the following would have the largest pKa?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa

Explanation:

To answer this question we must know Kb of CH3CH2NH2 is 5.6x10⁻⁴, and for C6H5NH2 is 4.0x10⁻¹⁰. And the CH3CH2NH3+ and C6H5NH3+ are related with these substances because are their conjugate base. That means:

pKa of  CH3CH2NH3+ =  CH3CH2NH2;  C6H5NH3+ =  C6H5NH2

Also, Kw / Kb = Ka

Thus:

pKa of CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 1.79x10⁻¹¹

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 10.75

pKa of C6H5NH3+/ C6H5NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 2.5x10⁻⁵

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 4.6

That means CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa
