Answer:

Group VII

Explanation:

The electronegativity of an element is the tendency of the atoms of that element to attract electrons that are shared with other atoms.

Each element has a different electronegativity from other elements. In particular:

- Electronegativity increases as we move towards the right along the periodic table - this is due to the fact that as we move to the right, the number of valence electrons in the atom increases, and therefore the tendency of the atom to attract more electrons increases more, in order to fill the valence shell. In fact, the most electronegative group is group VII, which is the last but on one on the right (the last group on the right, VIII, is the group containing the noble gases, which do not react at all, so they do not attract electrons)

- Electronegavity also decreases as we move downward along the periodic table - this is because as we move downward, the number of shells and electrons around the atom increase, so all these electrons "shield" the nucleus (which is positively charged, so it is the one attracting the electrons from other atoms), and so the tendency to attract more electrons decreases.

So, the group of element most electronegative is

VII

Based on nuclear stability, what is the symbol for the most likely product nuclide when iodine-123 undergoes decay?

MissTica

Answer is: Te (tellurium).
During electron capture, iodine-123 form the nearly-stable nuclide tellurium-123.
In beta plus decay (atomic number Z is decreased by one), a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.
Iodine-123 is a radioactive isotope of iodine used in nuclear medicine imaging.

Upon combustion, a 0.8376 g sample of a compound containing only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen produces 1.6003 gco2 and 0.9827 gh

Wewaii [24]

Answer is: empirical formula for compound is C₂H₆O.
m(CO₂) = 1,6003 g.
n(CO₂) = m(CO₂) ÷ M(CO₂).
n(CO₂) = 1,6003 g ÷ 44 g/mol.
n(CO₂) = 0,0364 mol.
n(CO₂) = n(C).
m(C) = 0,0364 mol · 12 g/mol = 0,4368 g.
m(H₂O) = 0,9827 g.
n(H₂O) = 0,9827 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 0,0546 mol.
n(H) = 2 · n(H₂O) = 0,1092 mol.
m(H) = 0,1092 mol · 1 g/mol = 0,1092 g.
m(O) = 0,8376 g - 0,4368 g - 0,1092 g = 0,2916 g.
n(O) = 0,2916 g ÷ 16 g/mol = 0,0182 mol.
n(C) : n(H) : n(O) = 0,0364 mol : 0,1092 mol : 0,0182 mol.
n(C) : n(H) : n(O) = 2 : 6 : 1.

(a) a 0.2 m potassium hydroxide solution is titrated with a 0.1 m nitric acid solution. (i) balanced equation: (ii)what would be

Stells [14]

$\text{KOH} (aq) + \text{HNO}_3 (aq) \to \text{KNO}_3 (aq) + \text{H}_2\text{O} (l)$

The solution shall contain only $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ (and water) at the equivalence point. Both potassium hydroxide and nitric acid exist as strong electrolytes. As a result, $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ , the salt derived from a reaction between the two species would undergo hydrolysis of a negligible extent. This neutralization reaction therefore be neutral at the equilibrium point.

The question states that the solution is "titrated with a ... nitric acid solution" indicating that $\text{HNO}_3$ is added to the initially-basic solution. PH value of the solution would keep decreasing as the volume of the acid added increases. The final solution would be acidic as it contains not only water and $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ , but some $\text{HNO}_3$ as well. Bromothymol blue would therefore demonstrates a yellow color, the color it present in an acidic solution, at the end of the titration.
