The much of the sample that would remain unchanged after 140 seconds is 2.813 g
Explanation
Half life is time taken for the quantity to reduce to half its original value.
if the half life for Scandium is 35 sec, then the number of half life in 140 seconds
=140 sec/ 35 s = 4 half life
Therefore 45 g after first half life = 45 x1/2 =22.5 g
22.5 g after second half life = 22.5 x 1/2 =11.25 g
11.25 g after third half life = 11.25 x 1/2 = 5.625 g
5.625 after fourth half life = 5.625 x 1/2 = 2.813
therefore 2.813 g of Scandium 47 remains unchanged.
Answer:
Lithium hydroxide is a base.
Carbon dioxide is the anhydride of the carbonic acid, H₂CO₃.
Therefore, the reaction awaited is a typical neutralization reaction with the formation of a salt and water.
2LiOH + CO₂ → Li₂CO₃ + H₂O
So, 2*20 = 40 moles of LiOH react with 20 moles of CO₂.
Molar Mass of LiOH = 23.95 g/mol
So, 40 * 23.95 = 958 g
Answer: Group 1 would have the lowest electronegativity values.
Explanation:
Electronegativity is the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons. It is also synonymous with the oxidizing ability or non-metallic character of elements.
Generally, across a given period from left to right, electronegativity increases due to increasing nuclear charge and decreasing atomic radius ( or atomic size ). This is because there is a greater tendency for a smaller atom with higher nuclear attraction to attract electrons than a larger atom with a lower nuclear attraction due to the shielding effect of the nuclear attraction by the inner shell electrons on the outermost electrons in the larger atom.
Also, down a particular group, electronegativity generally decreases due to increasing atomic radius/size.
This is why metals are generally electropositive ( lose electrons ) and non-metals are electronegative ( gain electrons ) as they are both found more on the left and right sides of the periodic table respectively.
