<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Higher velocity of particles
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
The diffusion rate is determined by a variety of factors which includes;
- Temperature such that the higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy the particles will have, so they will move and mix more quickly and the diffusion rate will be high.
- Concentration gradient such that the greater the difference in concentration, the quicker the rate of diffusion.
- Higher velocity of particles increases the diffusion rate as this means more kinetic energy by the particles and hence the particles will mix and move faster, thus higher diffusion rate.
1.Lithium has the greater ionization energy
2. Vanadium has a greater ionization energy
Note that it says oxygen "gas"
So you need the atomic mass of oxygen gas
Look at your periodic table, you'll see 15.9994 under oxygen
Oxygen gas has a formula of O2 therefore,
(15.9994) times 2= Oxygen gas atomic mass=31.9988
Mol= Mass/Atomic Mass
=62.3 g/ 31.9988 g/mol = 1.95 mol
now look at the ratio of C2H6 and O2, notice there is an invisible number beside each of them, at that "invisible number" is =1
1 C2H6 + 1 O2 -> products
this means that for 1 mol of C2H6, 1 mol of O2 has to react with it
Thus as we have 1.95 moles of O2, we need 1.95 moles of C2H6
The activity series goes top to bottom, most active to least active elements, going: Li, K, Ba, Sr, Ca, Na, Mg, Mn, Zn, Fe, Cd, Co, Ni, Sn, Pb, H, Cu, Ag, Hg, Au.
Thus, your list of metals would go from most reactive to least reactive: Li, K, Mg, Zn, Fe, Cu, Au
