Answer:

Iodine has more electron levels (rings) than fluorine.

Explanation:

On the periodic table, fluorine is on period 2 so it has 2 outer rings, iodine is on period 5 so it has 5 outer rings. The more rings the higher radius.

"Inert" xenon actually forms many compounds, especially with highly electronegative fluorine. The ΔH° values for xenon difluorid

svp [43]

The average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride is 132kJ/mol.

Given:

ΔH° of xenon difluoride (XeF2) = -105 kJ/mol

ΔH° of xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4)= -284 kJ/mol

ΔH° of xenon hexafluoride (XeF6) = -402 kJ/mol

The bond energy of Xe-F in XeF2 can be calculated as follows,

As we know that

ΔH° = ΔH°(bond formed) + ΔH°(bond broken)

The chemical reaction for the formation of XeF2 can be written in such a way,

Xe (g) + F2 (g) → XeF2 (g)

= [1 mol F2 (159 kJ/mol)] + [2(-Xe-F)] - 105 kJ/mol

= 159 kJ/mol + 2(-Xe-F) - 264 kJ/mol

= 2(-Xe-F)

Xe-F = 132 kJ/mol

Thus, we concluded that the average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride is 132kJ/mol.

How many cu atoms are present in a piece of sterlingsilver jewelry weighing 33.24 g ? (sterling silver is a silver–copper alloy

emmasim [6.3K]

The mass of piece of sterling silver jewelry is 33.24 g. It contains 92.5% silver Ag by mass. Since, sterling silver is an alloy of Ag-Cu thus, percentage of Cu will be:

% Cu=100-92.5=7.5%

Thus, mass of copper will be:

$m_{Cu}=\frac{7.5}{100}\times 33.24 g=2.493 g$

Molar mass of Cu is 63.546 g/mol, thus, number of moles of Cu can be calculated as follows:

$n=\frac{m}{M}$

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.

Putting the values,

$n=\frac{2.493 g}{63.546 g/mol}=0.03923 mol$

Now, in 1 mole of Cu there are $6.303\times 10^{23}atoms$ thus, in 0.03923 mol, number of Cu atoms will be:

$0.03923 mol\times 6.303\times 10^{23}atoms=2.363\times 10^{22} atoms$

Thus, number of atoms of Cu will be $2.363\times 10^{22} atoms$ .

Calcium nitrate tetrahydrate dissolves in cold water to the extent of 266 g per 100 cm3. What is the concentration of nitrate io

Soloha48 [4]

Answer : The correct option is, (b) 22.5 M

Explanation : Given,

Mass of calcium nitrate tetrahydrate = 266 g

Molar mass of calcium nitrate tetrahydrate = 236.15 g/mole

Volume of solution = $100cm^3=100mL$

Molarity : It is defined as the moles of solute present in one liter of solution.

Formula used :

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium nitrate tetrahydrate }\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of calcium nitrate tetrahydrate }\times \text{volume of solution in ml}}$
