What does it mean for a substance to have high reactivity?

Chemistry

Reactivity is the tendency of a substance to undergo chemical reaction, either by itself or with other materials, and to release energy.

A)

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we say that a substance has high reactivity then it means the substance is able to react readily with another substance.

For example, atomic number of potassium is 19 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 8, 1.

Since, it has only one valence electron and to attain stability it just needs 8 electrons in its valence shell. So, it will readily lose its 1 valence electron and thus become very much reactive in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that for a substance to have high reactivity it means that it reacts easily with other substances.

Use the nuclear decay reaction in the picture to answer the following question.
allsm [11]

Answer:

1a. Both sides of the decay reaction have the same charge.

b. The number of nucleons on both sides are the same.

2. The binding energy of one mole of the atom is 17.172 × 10^{16} J.

Explanation:

1a. Considering the two sides of the decay reaction and with respect to the law of conservation of charge, it can be observed that both sides have the same charge. Charge can not be created or destroyed in the process.

b. The number of nucleons on both sides are equal. No nucleon is created or destroyed in the process.

2. Binding energy is the minimum energy required to separate an atom into its nucleons. From Einstein's energy equation;

             E = Δmc^{2}

Where E is the binding energy of the atom, Δm is the mass defect and c is the speed of light.

Given that: Δm = 1.908 g/mol and c = 3 × 10^{8}. So that:

           E = 1.908 × (3*10^{8}) ^{2}

              = 1.908 × 9 × 10^{16}

              = 17.172 × 10^{16} J

The binding energy of one mole of the atom is 17.172 × 10^{16} J.

A reaction has ∆H = −356 kJ and ∆S = −36 J/K. Calculate ∆G (kJ) at 25°C.
Cloud [144]

Answer: -345.2 KJ

Explanation: As we know that ,dG=dH-TdS

T=25+273=298 K

dG= -356 x1000-298(-36)= -356000+10728

=-345272 j

= -345.2 KJ

An object has a density of 2.9 grams/cm^3 and a mass of 45.6 grams. Calculate the objects volume.
ikadub [295]

Answer:

<h2>15.72 cm³</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density} \\

From the question we have

mass = 45.6 g

density = 2.9 g/cm³

volume =  \frac{45.6}{2.9}   \\ = 15.724137

We have the final answer as

<h3>15.72 cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you
