Difference between cation and anion

1 answer:

7 0

A cation is an atom or a group of atoms bearing one or more positive electric charges. An anion is an atom or a group of atoms bearing one or more negative electric charges. Cations carry one or more positive charges. Anions carry one or more negative charges

The vapor pressure of water is 1.00 atm at 373 K, and the enthalpy of vaporization is 40.68 kJ mol!. Estimate the vapor pressure

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The vapor pressure at temperature 363 K is 0.6970 atm

The vapor pressure at 383 K is 1.410 atm

Explanation:

To calculate $\Delta H_{vap}$ of the reaction, we use clausius claypron equation, which is:

$\ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]$

where,

$P_1$ = vapor pressure at temperature $T_1$

$P_2$ = vapor pressure at temperature $T_2$

$\Delta H_{vap}$ = Enthalpy of vaporization

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

1) $\Delta H_{vap}=40.68 kJ/mol=40680 J/mol$

$T_1$ = initial temperature =363 K

$T_2$ = final temperature =373 K

$P_2=1 atm, P_1=?$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\ln(\frac{1 atm}{P_1})=\frac{40680 J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{363}-\frac{1}{373}]$

$P_1=0.69671 atm \approx 0.6970 atm$

The vapor pressure at temperature 363 K is 0.6970 atm

2) $\Delta H_{vap}=40.68 kJ/mol=40680 J/mol$

$T_1$ = initial temperature =373 K

$T_2$ = final temperature =383 K

$P_1=1 atm, P_2?$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\ln(\frac{P_2}{1 atm})=\frac{40680 J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{373}-\frac{1}{383}]$

$P_2=1.4084 atm \approx 1.410 atm$

The vapor pressure at 383 K is 1.410 atm

Which of the following species has the greatest

Licemer1 [7]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When there is a negative charge on an atom then we add the charge with the number of electrons. Whereas when there is a positive charge on an atom then we subtract the charge from the number of electrons.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17. So, number of electrons present in $Cl^{-}$ is 17 + 1 = 18 electrons.

Atomic number of cobalt is 27. So, number of electrons present in $Co^{4+}$ is 27 - 4 = 23 electrons.

Atomic number of iron is 26. So, number of electrons present in $Fe^{2+}$ is 26 - 2 = 24 electrons.

Atomic number of vanadium is 23. So, number of electrons present in V is 23 electrons.

Atomic number of scandium is 21. So, number of electrons present in $Sc^{2-}$ is 21 + 2 = 23 electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given species, $Fe^{2+}$ has the greatest number of electrons.
