Explain in words or using your diagrams how beryllium atoms would react with fluorine atoms.
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

To delineate the the nature of the bonds that would be formed between the two elements, let us first write the electronic configuration of the two species;

  Be  = 2, 2

  F  = 2, 7

 Beryllium is a metal with two valence electrons whereas fluorine is a halogen with seven valence electrons.

When Be loses two electrons it becomes isoelectronic with He;

                 Be →  Be²⁺ + 2e⁻  

Also, when fluorine gains  an electron, it becomes isoelectronic with Ne;

               F  + e⁻ →  F⁻

This loss and gain of electrons between the two elements creates an electrostatic attraction them and they enter into an electrovalent bond.

      Hence;

           Be²⁺  + 2F⁻ → BeF₂

How many half-lives would something have gone through if you had 75% daughter product and 25% parent?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Two Half-lives

Explanation:

Let number of Parent nuclei Initially present be X,

Then, finally \frac{X}{4} Parent nuclei Will remain with \frac{3X}{4} daughter nuclei.

In one half- life , parent nuclei becomes half of initial.

So, starting with X parent nuclei,

After one half-life, it will degrade to \frac{X}{2} .

After another half life , Parent nuclei will become half of \frac{X}{2}

Which is equal to \frac{X}{4}.

So, Parent nuclei have to go through Two half-lives.

Please help me with this. (: I'd appreciate it.
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  ΔH = -283 kJ/mol, first option

Explanation:

Reaction

                CO  +  O₂     ⇒     CO₂

ΔH = ∑H products - ∑H products

ΔH = -393.5 - (-110.5 + 0)

ΔH = -393.5 + 110.5

ΔH = -283 kJ/mol

makkiz [27]
The pressure of gas will increase because gaseous state is the final state and even if the heat added is evaporating some more gas is still added. It also depends on the temperature of heat added, if the temperature doesn't change the it's most likely for the pressure to be stable...
