D. I or Iodine

This is because they are both in the same periodic family (the halogens) and thus the number of valence electrons are the same

Answer: (4) I (iodine)

Explanation:

Reactivity of elements follow a trend in such a manner that elements in the same group have similar chemical properties since they react in similar ways during chemical reaction. This similarity is as a result of the same number of valence electrons they have in their respective outer shell. This particular similarity is what classifies them into groups.

In this question, Chlorine is in the same group with Iodine and they're referred to as "halogens" and all halogen have similar chemical reactions. Example, they seek one valence electron to be stable. Easy formation of salts with metals etc

Answer:

This is what they are: An ion is a charged atom or molecule. It is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. An atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom.

This is their purpose: Once they reach our bloodstream, negative ions are believed to produce biochemical reactions that increase levels of the mood chemical serotonin, helping to alleviate depression, relieve stress, and boost our daytime energy.

A proposed mechanism for the reaction of NO2 and CO is
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

a.

1. NO2(g): Reactant.

2. CO(g): Reactant.

3. NO3(g): Intermediate.

4. CO2(g): Product.

5. NO(g): Product.

b. See attached picture.

Explanation:

Hello,

a. In this case, given the reactions, we can identify each species as:

1. NO2(g): Reactant because it remains at the left side in the overall reaction.

2. CO(g): Reactant because it remains at the left side in the overall reaction.

3. NO3(g): Intermediate because it is a product in the step 1 and a reactant in step 2, for that reason it is not present in the overall reaction.

4. CO2(g): Product because it remains at the right side in the overall reaction.

5. NO(g): Product because it remains at the right side in the overall reaction.

b. In this case, given that the first step is slow and endothermic, it has a high activation energy and the products will have more energy than the reactants, for that reason the final energy is above the initial point. Moreover, since the second step is fast and exothermic, it has a low activation energy and the products will have less energy than the reactants, for that reason, the reaction coordinate diagram is shown on the attached file.

Regards.

Which statement best describes the effect of low ionization energies and low electronegativities on metallic bonding?
kramer
The statement that best describes the effect of low ionization energies and low electronegativities on metallic bonding is the first one - the valence electrons are easily delocalized. 
Due to these low energies and negativities, valence electrons can be moved around quite easily and their positions may be altered quite drastically.

Questions 18-20 refer to the reaction 2NH3 (g) ↔ N2 (g) + 3H2 (g), and ΔH = 92.2 kJ.
Fittoniya [83]
18. <span>Answer is </span>A

<span>  
<span>Since the enthalpy of reaction is positive, the forward reaction is<span> an endothermic reaction which means the energy is gained from the surrounding to happen the reaction. If the temperature decreases, according to the </span></span>Le Chatelier's principle, the system tries to become equilibrium by increasing temperature. Since forward reaction is endothermic (because of the bond breaking), the backward reaction is exothermic (because of the bond making) which releases the energy to the surroundings. This makes the increase of temperature. So if the backward reaction is promoted because of the decrease of temperature, then the concentration of H</span><span>₂ will decrease.</span>

<span>
</span>

19. Answer is A.

The reactant side has 2 moles/molecules of reactants and the product side has 4 moles/molecules of products which come from 1 N₂(g) and 3 H₂<span>(g). If the pressure is reduced in the system, according to the Le Chatelier's principle, the system tries to increase the pressure. </span><span>Hence, forward reaction is promoted because of the higher number of molecules in product side. If the forward reaction is promoted, the concentration of NH</span>₃(g) will decreased.


<span>20. </span>Answer is C.

If the concentration of reactant is increased in the system, according to the Le Chatelier's principle, the system tries to reduce the concentration of that reactant. So if NH₃(g) concentration is increased, then to be equilibrium, the forward reaction will be promoted. Then the concentration of N₂<span>(g) will increase.</span>

At Jim's auto shop, it takes him minutes to do an oil change and minutes to do a tire change. Let be the number of oil changes h
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The total time that Jim needs to change x oil changes and y tire changes is less than 180 min.

The time needed for x oil changes is 12 * x.

The time needed for y tire changes is 18 * y.

The total time is the sum of the above times and needs to be less than 180 that is

12 * x + 18 * y < 180 divide both sides of equation by 6

12/6 * x + 18/6*y < 180/6

2*x + 3*y < 30

2*x < 30 - 3*y divide both sides by 2 to get the inequality for x

x < 30/2 - 3/2*y = 15 - 1.5 y < 15 that is x < = 15

2*x + 3*y < 30

3*y < 30 - 2*x divide both sides by 3 to get the inequality for y

y < 30/3 - 2/3 *x = 10 - 2/3*x < 10 that is y < = 10

Also we can write x + y < x+ 3/2 * y < 15.

Explanation:

Jim's can do not more then 5 oil changes and not more then 10 tire changes or all together she can do not more then 15 total of oil and tire changes.
