Answer is: low reactivity.

Nitrogen (N) is in group 15 of Periodic table of elements and his atomic number is seven, which means that nitrogen has seven electrons and electron configuration: ₇N 1s²2s²2p³.

Nitrogen is inert (low reactivity) nonmetal and has five valence electrons. Nitrogen has oxidation numbers from -3 to +5.

Nitrogen molecule (N₂) has strong nonpolar triple covalent bond, that is why it is very stable and have low reactivity.

The specific heat capacity of titanium is 0.523j/g c what is the heat capacity of 2.3g of titanium
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

1.2029 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat capacity of titanium = 0.523 J/g.°C

Specific heat capacity of 2.3 gram of titanium = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

1 g of titanium have 0.523 J/g.°C specific heat capacity

2.3  × 0.523 J/g.°C

1.2029 J/g.°C

Write an equation that shows the formation of the chloride ion from a neutral chlorine atom
jeka57 [31]

The gaining of electron by an atom results in the formation of anion shown by the negative charge on the atom whereas lose of electron results in the formation of cation shown by positive charge on the atom. The atom lose or gain electron to complete their octet and get stable in nature.

The chlorine atom will gain an electron and form chloride anion with one negative charge on it. The chloride ion is more stable in nature compared to the chlorine atom due to complete octet of chloride ion by gaining of electron.

Electronic configuration of chlorine atom is:

[Ne]3s^{2}3p^{5}

By gaining of one electron, electronic configuration of chloride ion is:

[Ne]3s^{2}3p^{6}

Thus, the equation that shows the formation of the chloride ion from a neutral chlorine atom is:

Cl+1e^{-}\rightarrow Cl^{-}

What is the volume of 1.60 grams of O2 gas at STP? (5 points)
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

  • <u><em>1.12 liters</em></u>

Explanation:

<u>Calculating number of moles</u>

  • Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g
  • n = Given weight / Molar mass
  • n = 1.6/32
  • n = 0.05 moles

<u>At STP</u>

  • One mole of O₂ occupies 22.4 L
  • Therefore, 0.05 moles will occupy :
  • 22.4 L x 0.05 = <u><em>1.12 L</em></u>
