Looking at the same nonmetal group on the periodic table, how does the reactivity of an element in period 2 compare to the react

ivity of an element in period 4?
Chemistry

N76 [4]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The period 2 element would be more reactive because the attractive force of protons is stronger when electrons are attracted to a closer electron shell.

Explanation:

Nonmetals want to add more electrons to their valence electron shell. Elements in period 2 have their valence shell closer their nucleus, then they are more reactive than period 4 elements.

To break the oxygen-oxygen bonds in a single O2 molecule, 1 × 10–18 J of energy is required. Which of the following wavelengths
Sonbull [250]

E = hc/(lamda)

The lamda symbol is wavelength, which this site does not have. I can represent it with an "x" instead.

Plancks constant, h = 6.626×10^-32 J·s

Speed of light, c = 3.00×10^8 m/s

The energy must be greater than or equal to 1×10^-18 J

1×10^-18 J ≤ (6.626×10^-32 J·s)*(3.0×10^8 m/s) / x

x ≤ (6.626×10^-32 J·s)*(3.0×10^8 m/s) / (1×10^-18 J)

x ≤ 1.99×10^-7 m or 199 nm

The wavelength of light must be greater than or equal to 199 nm

The cation of the salt is sodium ion, and the anion is aurothiosulfate ion. Based on the chemical formula of the salt, what must
marta [7]

Answer:

3-

Explanation:

Sodium aurothiosulfate is a salt with the formula Na₃Au(S₂O₃)₂. The cation of the salt is sodium ion, and the anion is aurothiosulfate ion. We can determine the charge of the aurothiosulfate ion, considering that the sum of the positive and negative charges must be equal to the charge of the compound, which is zero.

3 × Na⁺ + 1 × Au(S₂O₃)₂ⁿ⁻ = 0

3 × +1 + 1 × Au(S₂O₃)₂ⁿ⁻ = 0

Au(S₂O₃)₂ⁿ⁻ = 3-
