Answer:

The answer to your question is Iodine

Explanation:

Elements can be classified as:

Basic elements of life: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and, Nitrogen these elements are in great quantity in the body.

Quantity elements are elements in a medium quantity in the body like Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium, Calcium, Phosphorus, Sulfur and Chlorine.

Trace elements are elements in a low quantity example: Selenium, Iodine, Zinc, Copper, Cobalt, Iron and, Manganese.

A reaction of 41.9 g of Na and 30.3 g of Br2 yields 36.4 g of NaBr . What is the percent yield?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer: The percent yield is, 93.4%

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the moles of Na.

\text{Moles of Na}=\frac{\text{Mass of Na}}{\text{Molar mass of Na}}=\frac{41.9g}{23g/mole}=1.82moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of Br_2

{\text{Moles of}Br_2} = \frac{\text{Mass of }Br_2 }{\text{Molar mass of} Br_2} =\frac{30.3g}{160g/mole}=0.189moles

{\text{Moles of } NaBr} = \frac{\text{Mass of } NaBr }{\text{Molar mass of } NaBr} =\frac{36.4g}{103g/mole}=0.353moles

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2Na(s)+Br_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaBr

As, 1 mole of bromine react with = 2 moles of Sodium

So, 0.189 moles of bromine react with = \frac{2}{1}\times 0.189=0.378 moles of Sodium

Thus bromine is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Na is the excess reagent.

As, 1 mole of bromine give = 2 moles of Sodium bromide

So, 0.189 moles of bromine give = \frac{2}{1}\times 0.189=0.378 moles of Sodium bromide

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of reaction

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100=\frac{0.353 mol}{0.378}\times 100=93.4\%

Therefore, the percent yield is, 93.4%

Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a
exis [7]
Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.

Which statement best describes alpha decay?(1 point)
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

After the ejection of an alpha particle, the remaining nucleus has a mass number that is four less and an atomic number that is two less, so alpha decay is a type of nuclear fission.

A solution has a poh of 7. 1 at 10∘c. what is the ph of the solution given that kw=2. 93×10−15 at this temperature? remember to
Gnom [1K]

A solution has a pOH of 7. 1 at 10∘c. Then the pH of the solution given that kw=2. 93×10−15 at this temperature is 7.4 .

It is given that,

pOH of solution = 7.1

Kw =2.93×10^(-15)

Firstly, we will calculate the value of pKw

The expression which we used to calculate the pKw is,

pKw=-log [Kw]

Now by putting the value of Kw in this expression,

pKw =−log{2.93×10^(-15)}

pKw =15log(2.93)

pKw=14.5

Now we have to calculate the pH of the solution.

As we know that,

pH+pOH=pKw

Now put all the given values in this formula,

pH+7.1=14.5

pH=7.4

Therefore, we find the value of pH of the solution is, 7.4.

The reaction A → products is first order. If the initial concentration of A is 0.646 M and, after 72.8 seconds have elapsed, the
mario62 [17]

Answer: 0.00867 moldm-3

Explanation:

Since the reaction is 1st order,

Rate of reaction=∆[A]÷t

0.646-0.0146/72.8= 0.00867

Remember that in a first order reaction, the rate of reaction depends on change in the concentration of only one of the reaction species, A in the problem above.
