An atom of an element forms a 2+ ion. In which group on the Periodic Table could this element be located?

1 answer:

3 0

To form a 2+ ion, you need to lose two negatively charged electrons. Because metals have relatively empty outer shells, they lose electrons. Metals are on the left hand side of the table, and in order to lose two electrons, you need to have two electrons to start with. The groups of the table are based on the number of electrons an element has in the outer shell, so Group 2 metals will lose two electrons to gain a 2+ charge

The molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO2) is 44.01 g/mol. The molar mass of water (H2O) is 18.01 g/mol. A reaction uses 528 g of CO

Black_prince [1.1K]

CO₂ + H₂O -------> H₂CO₃

moles of CO₂ = $\frac{MASS of Carbon}{ MOLAR MASS}$

= $\frac{528 g}{44.01 g / mol}$

= 11.997 mol

mole ratio of CO₂ : H₂O =   1 : 1

  ∴ moles of H₂O = (`11.997 mol ) * 1
= 11.997 mol
   ≈ 12 mol

A certain first-order reaction (A→products) has a rate constant of 8.10×10−3 s−1 at 45 ∘C. How many minutes does it take for the

stira [4]

Answer:

The answer is 5.7 minutes

Explanation:

A first-order reaction follow the law of $Ln [A] = -k.t + Ln [A]_{0}$ . Where [A] is the concentration of the reactant at any t time of the reaction, $[A]_{0}$ is the concentration of the reactant at the beginning of the reaction and k is the rate constant.

Dropping the concentration of the reactant to 6.25% means the concentration of A at the end of the reaction has to be $[A]=\frac{6.25}{100}.[A]_{0}$ . And the rate constant (k) is 8.10×10−3 s−1

Replacing the equation of the law:

$Ln \frac{6.25}{100}.[A]_{0} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t + Ln[A]_{0}$

Clearing the equation:

$Ln [A]_{0}.\frac{6.25}{100} - Ln [A]_{0} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t$

Considering the property of logarithms: $Ln A - Ln B = Ln \frac{A}{B}$

Using the property:

$Ln \frac{[A]_{0}}{[A]_{0}}.\frac{6.25}{100} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t$

Clearing t and solving:

$t = \frac{Ln \frac{6.25}{100} }{-8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1} } = 342.3s$

The answer is in the unit of seconds, but every minute contains 60 seconds, converting the units:

$342.3x\frac{1min}{60s} = 5.7min$

Why is Newton's first law of motion important to science?

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Newton's laws are very important because they tie into almost everything we see in everyday life. These laws tell us exactly how things move or sit still, like why you don't float out of bed or fall through the floor of your house.

Explanation: Newton's laws of motion are important because they are the foundation of classical mechanics, one of the main branches of physics. Mechanics is the study of how objects move or do not move when forces act upon them.
