Why are hydrogen, lithium, and sodium classified as reactive elements?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>The alkali metals and hydrogen are reactive because they have only one electron to give in order to complete their valence shell. It is easier to give that one electron so when given the opportunity they will. This means they will react with anything polar or willing to take an electron.</span>

Explain three factors that can affect the size of a line in a spectrum.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:For atoms and molecules, the width of spectral lines is governed mainly by the broadening of the energy levels of the atoms or molecules during interactions with surrounding particles and by the broadening of the spectral lines as a result of the Doppler effect.

Why is feo named using a roman numeral, iron (ii) oxide, whereas cao named without a roman numeral, calcium oxide?

Hitman42 [59]

<span>Answer: Some metals have the ability to form differently charged ions. For example, iron can form 2 + or 3 + ions. If you simply gave the name iron chloride, you would not know which charge the iron ion possessed. A Roman numeral is to indicate the charge of the iron. Iron ( II ) means the iron has a 2 + charge Iron ( III ) means that the iron has a 3 + charge So, iron ( II ) oxide would have a chemical formula of FeO . (The oxide ion has a 2 â’ charge to balance the 2 + of the iron to form a neutral compound.) Iron ( III ) oxide would have a chemical formula of Fe 2 O 3 (Here you need to find the common multiple of 6, so two iron ions with a 3 + charge will balance the charge of three oxide ions with a 2 + charge.)</span>

2. Consider the reaction 2 Cg H18 (4) +250â (9) âº 16 co, (g) + 18 HâO(g) la How many moles of H20co) are produced, when |--16:1

Sladkaya [172]

Answer :

(a) The moles of water produced are 145.35 moles.

(b) The mass of oxygen needed are 3080.8 grams.

<u>Solution for part (a) : Given,</u>

Moles of $C_8H_{18}$ = 16.15 moles

First we have to calculate the moles of $H_2O$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\rightarrow 16CO_2+18H_2O$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of $C_8H_{18}$ react to give 18 moles of $H_2O$

So, 16.15 moles of $C_8H_{18}$ react to give $\frac{16.15}{2}\times 18=145.35$ moles of $H_2O$

The moles of water produced are 145.35 moles.

<u>Solution for part (b) : Given,</u>

Mass of $C_8H_{18}$ = 878 g

Molar mass of $C_8H_{18}$ = 114 g/mole

Molar mass of $O_2$ = 32 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $C_8H_{18}$ .

$\text{ Moles of }C_8H_{18}=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_8H_{18}}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_8H_{18}}=\frac{878g}{114g/mole}=7.702moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $O_2$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\rightarrow 16CO_2+18H_2O$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of $C_8H_{18}$ react with 25 moles of $O_2$

So, 7.702 moles of $C_8H_{18}$ react with $\frac{7.702}{2}\times 25=96.275$ moles of $O_2$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $O_2$ .

$\text{ Mass of }O_2=\text{ Moles of }O_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }O_2$

$\text{ Mass of }O_2=(96.275moles)\times (32g/mole)=3080.8g$

The mass of oxygen needed are 3080.8 grams.

An unknown liquid has a mass of 30.8 g, and a volume of 31.5 mL. What is the density of this liquid?

julsineya [31]

The density of the liquid is 0.98 g/mL

<h3>What is density? </h3>

The density of a substance is defined as the mass of the subtance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

Density = mass / volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the density of the liquid.

<h3>How to determine the density </h3>

Mass = 30.8 g
Volume = 31.5 mL
Density =?

Density = mass / volume

Density of liquid = 30.8 / 31.5

Density of liquid = 0.98 g/mL

How many grams of aluminum will<br> react fully with 1.25 moles Cl₂?

Liula [17]

2Al + 3Cl₂ → 2AlCl₃

mol Al = 2/3 x 1.25 = 0.83

mass Al = 0.83 x 27 g/mol = 22.41 g
