Answer:
C2H6
Explanation:
Let us first consider the molar Masses of each gas
HBr - 80.91 g/mol
NO2 - 46.0055 g/mol
C2H6 - 30.07 g/mol
We must remember that the greater the molar mass of a gas the lesser its velocity and average kinetic energy.
Looking at the gases listed, C2H6 have the highest average kinetic energy at this temperature since it has the lowest molecular mass. This reasoning is directly derived from Graham's law of diffusion in gases.
Hence C2H6 will effuse fastest when a hole is made in the container. It also possess the greatest average kinetic energy because it has the lowest molecular mass.
Answer:
3.91 L
Explanation:
Using the ideal gas law equation as follows:
PV = nRT
Where:
P = pressure (atm)
V = volume (L)
n = number of moles (mol)
R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)
T = temperature (K)
Based on the information given in this question,
P = 5.23 atm
V= ?
n = 0.831 mol
T = 27°C = 27 + 273 = 300K
Using PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = (0.831 × 0.0821 × 300) ÷ 5.23
V = 20.47 ÷ 5.23
V = 3.91 L
ANSWER
2 valence electrons
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
The electronic configuration is given below as
Looking at the configuration, you will see that the last energy carries 2 electrons
Hence, the valence electrons are 2
