Which element would most likely have a positive electron affinity

Chemistry
1 answer:
aksik [14]3 years ago
3 0
Electron affinity is the energy released when an electron is added to a neutral atom to make an ion with a charge of -1.

The halogens have some of the highest electron affinities. Therefore, Br is one example.

A mineral consisted of 29.4% calcium, 23.5% sulfur and 47.1% oxygen. What is the empirical formula?
inessss [21]
Step  one  calculate  the  moles  of  each  element
that  is  moles= %  composition/molar  mass
molar  mass  of    Ca  =  40g/mol,     S=  32  g/mol ,   O=  16 g/mol

moles  of      Ca = 29.4 /40g/mol=0.735 moles,      S= 23.5/32  =0.734 moles,  O= 47.1/16= 2.94   moles

calculate  the mole  ratio  by  dividing   each  mole with  smallest  mole   that   is  0.734
Ca=  0.735/0.734= 1,      S=  0.734/0.734 =1,   O  = 2.94/  0.734= 4
therefore  the  emipical  formula  =  CaSO4

Select the reason why two molecules of benzaldehyde cannot react via the aldol condensation.
Lesechka [4]
Benzaldehyde or C6H5CHO would not undergo the aldol condensation because it does not contain an alpha-hydrogen in its structure. Aldol condensation is a type of reaction that happens between an enolate and an aldehyde or ketone leading to a alkene that has a planar structure. The lack of an alpha-hydrogen would not allow for it to undergo such process since it cannot enolize. Benzaldehyde undergoes a nucleophilic reaction known as Claisen-Schmidt condensation. It has somehow same mechanism of the aldol reaction however, the nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl happens even without the alpha-hydrogen but with an enolate that is from a ketone.

Compared to micellular Compound 1, Compound 2 is structurally more rigid as a result of what type of interaction?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

D. Intramolecular covalent bond

Explanation:

Compound D is structurally more rigid  as a result of intramolecular covalent bonding. The forces that hold together atoms within a compound are greater as compared to forces holding two molecules  together (intermolecular bonding). On the other hand  Hydrogen bonds are weaker as compared to covalent bonds. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between two atoms and Hydrogen bonds are formed between a highly electronegative  atom like oxygen, Flourine,Chlorine to hydrogen.

What is the entropy change in the environment when 5.0 MJ of energy is transferred thermally from a reservoir at 1000 K to one a
Leni [432]

Answer:

The entropy change in the environment is 3.62x10²⁶.

Explanation:

The entropy change can be calculated using the following equation:

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{k_{B}}(\frac{1}{T_{f}} - \frac{1}{T_{i}})

Where:

Q: is the energy transferred = 5.0 MJ

k_{B}: is the Boltzmann constant = 1.38x10⁻²³ J/K  

T_{i}: is the initial temperature = 1000 K

T_{f}: is the final temperature = 500 K

Hence, the entropy change is:

\Delta S = \frac{5.0 \cdot 10^{6} J}{1.38 \cdot 10^{-23} J/K}(\frac{1}{500 K} - \frac{1}{1000 K}) = 3.62 \cdot 10^{26}                                    

Therefore, the entropy change in the environment is 3.62x10²⁶.

I hope it helps you!

Calculate the volume of a balloon that can hold 113.4 g of nitrogen dioxide, NO2 gas at STP-
Karolina [17]

Answer:

55.18 L

Explanation:

First we convert 113.4 g of NO₂ into moles, using its molar mass:

  • 113.4 g ÷ 46 g/mol = 2.465 mol

Then we<u> use the PV=nRT formula</u>, where:

  • P = 1atm & T = 273K (This means STP)
  • n = 2.465 mol
  • R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹
  • V = ?

Input the data:

  • 1 atm * V = 2.465 mol * 0.082atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 273 K

And <u>solve for V</u>:

  • V = 55.18 L
