How reactive is an atom of Sodium(Na) and why?

1 answer:

5 0

3rd one:
it is very reactive because it does not have a full Valence shell.

this is because it's in group 1 so it has one electron in its outer shell, and it wants to have a full outer shell ( which it can gain by losing the electron in a reaction).

Hope this helps :)

Ideal gas (n 2.388 moles) is heated at constant volume from T1 299.5 K to final temperature T2 369.5 K. Calculate the work and h

bija089 [108]

Answer : The work, heat during the process and the change of entropy of the gas are, 0 J, 3333.003 J and -10 J respectively.

Explanation :

(a) At constant volume condition the entropy change of the gas is:

$\Delta S=-n\times C_v\ln \frac{T_2}{T_1}$

We know that,

The relation between the $C_p\text{ and }C_v$ for an ideal gas are :

$C_p-C_v=R$

As we are given :

$C_p=28.253J/K.mole$

$28.253J/K.mole-C_v=8.314J/K.mole$

$C_v=19.939J/K.mole$

Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas.

$\Delta S=-n\times C_v\ln \frac{T_2}{T_1}$

$\Delta S=-2.388\times 19.939J/K.mole\ln \frac{369.5K}{299.5K}=-10J$

(b) As we know that, the work done for isochoric (constant volume) is equal to zero. $(w=-pdV)$

(C) Heat during the process will be,

$q=n\times C_v\times (T_2-T_1)=2.388mole\times 19.939J/K.mole\times (369.5-299.5)K= 3333.003J$

Therefore, the work, heat during the process and the change of entropy of the gas are, 0 J, 3333.003 J and -10 J respectively.

"would you expect to find sodium chloride in underground rock deposits as a solid, liquid, or gas? explain."

Sophie [7]

A sodium chloride is like most of the ionic compounds existing here on earth in which they are composed of having a high melting point and by this, if found in underground rock deposits, they are usually in a form of solid.
