Which element has the highest first electron affinity? which element has the highest first electron affinity? te ba xe cs?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Savatey [412]3 years ago
4 0
Electron affinity is the energy released when an electron is added to the gaseous atom or ion.
Electron affinity increases by moving from left to right in periodic table and decreases by moving from up to down.
So the correct answer is Te
Xe: being as noble gas it is unacceptable to gain an electron
The values of electron affinity for these elements:
Ba (13.9 kJ/mol) - Te (190.1 kJ/mol) - Xe (-80 kJ/mol) - Cs (45.5 kJ/mol)

What is the formal charge on the hydrogen atom in hbr? use the periodic table as needed?
Westkost [7]
A covalent bond is formed between H and Br
The structure of HBr is as follows
H —Br
Formal charge for atoms are the charges for individual atoms in compounds.
Formal charge can be calculated as follows ;
Formal charge of atom = number of valence electrons -( number of bonds + number of lone pair electrons)
H has 1 valence electron, 1 bond and 0 number of lone pair electrons
Formal charge of H = 1 -1 -0 = 0
H has 0 charge

C(s) + S8(s) → CS2(l)
Vanyuwa [196]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>4C(s) + S8(s) → 4CS2(l)

We are given the amount of carbon and sulfur to be used in the reaction. We need to determine first the limiting reactant to be able to solve this correctly.

</span>7.70 g C ( 1 mol / 12.01 g) =0.64 mol C
19.7 g S8 ( 1 mol / 256.48 g) = 0.08 mol S8

The limiting reactant would be S8. We use this amount to calculate.

0.08 mol S8 ( 4 mol CS2 / 1 mol S8 ) ( 256.48 g / 1 mol ) = 78.8 g CS2

Rewrite the equation below using the correct conventions for stoichiometric coefficients. 2 BaCl2 + 2 H2SO4 → 2 BaSO4 + 4 HCl
vichka [17]

Answer:

BaCl2+H2SO4 \rightarrow BaSO4+2HCl

Explanation:

The given equation is:

2 BaCl2+2H2SO4 \rightarrow2BaSO4+4HCl

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

2 moles of barium chloride (BaCl2) reacts with 2 moles of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to form 2 moles of barium sulfate (BaSO4) and 4 moles of HCl

Although the reaction is balanced, the correct convention is to depict reactions in terms of the lowest molar ratio. Therefore the coefficients (2,2,4 and 4) can be divided by 2 to give:

BaCl2+H2SO4 \rightarrow BaSO4+2HCl

Which is a saturated solution?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

C)52g KCl in 100g water at 80°C

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one that contains as much solute as it can dissolve in the presence of excess solute at that particular temperature.

A solutibility curve is a graph that shows the variability with temperature of the solubility of a solute in a given solvent. A solutibility curve can provide information of whether a solution formed frommthe solute and solvent are saturated or not at a given temperature.

From the solubility curve in the attachment below:

A) A saturated solution of NH₄Cl will contain about 52 g solute per 100 g sat 50 °C. Thus, a solution of 40 g NH₄Cl in 100 g water at 50 °C is an unsaturated solution.

B) A saturated solution of SO₂ at 10°C will contain about 70 g of solute in 100 g of water. Thus a solution of 2g SO₂ in 100g water at 10°C is an unsaturated solution.

C) A saturated solution of KCl at 80 °C will contain about 52 g of solute in 100 g of water. Thus, a solution of 52g KCl in 100g water at 80°C is a saturated solution.

D) A saturated solution of Kl at 20 °C will contain about 145 g of solute in 100 g of water. Thus, a solution of 120g KI in 100g water at 20°C is an unsaturated solution.
