The melting point of potassium = 63.5^{0}C

Melting point of titanium = 1660^{0}C

Titanium has a stronger metallic bonding compared to potassium. Titanium being a transition metal has greater number of valence electrons (4 valence electrons) contributing to the valence electron sea compared to potassium which has only one valence electron. The atomic size of Titanium much lower than that of potassium, so the bonding between Titanium atoms is stronger than that of potassium. Hence, the melting point of Titanium is much higher than that of potassium.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1. B

2. C

Explanation:

1. There are 15 electrons which means that the element is phosphorus. We know it is in the excited state because an electron from the second ring has moved to the third one, typically it would be 2 - 8 - 5.

2. An element with 3 valence electrons will be 3 spaces from the left side of the periodic table. Sodium is 1, Magnesium is 2, Aluminium is 3, and Silicon is 4. Noble gasses on the right have all 8.

Which of the following options would be the best for dissolving PbBr2(s)?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

2) Add a solution of NaBr

Explanation:

Lead (II) bromide is an inorganic powdery substance that has a solubility in water of 0.973 g/100 mL at 20°C. It is insoluble in alcohol but is soluble in alkali, ammonia, NaBr, and KBr

PbBr₂ is slightly soluble in ammonia, and it reacts with NaOH to produce Pb(OH)₂ and NaBr

Therefore, the best solution for dissolving PbBr₂(s) is NaBr

Gas has a volume of 247.3 ML and is at 100 Celsius and 745 Hg. If the mass of the gas is 0.347 g what is the molar mass of the v
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The molar mass of the vapor is 43.83 g/mol

Explanation:

Given volume of gas = V = 247.3 mL = 0.2473 L

Temperature = T = 100^{\circ}C = 373 K

Pressure of the gas = P = 745 mmHg  (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

P = \displaystyle \frac{745}{760} \textrm{ atm} = 0.9802 \textrm{ atm}

Mass of vapor = 0.347 g

Assuming molar mass of gas to be M g/mol

The ideal gas equation is shown below

\textrm{PV} =\textrm{nRT} \\\textrm{PV} = \displaystyle \frac{m}{M}\textrm{ RT } \\0.98026 \textrm{ atm}\times 0.2473 \textrm{ L} = \displaystyle \frac{3.47 \textrm{ g}}{M}\times 0.0821 \textrm{ L.atm.mol}^{-1}.K^{-1}\times 373\textrm{K} \\M = 43.834 \textrm{ g/mol}

The molar mass of the vapor comes out to be 43.834 g/mol
