Electron affinity is the measure of the attraction of an electron toward an isolated gaseous atom. When an electron is added to

an isolated gaseous atom or ion energy is either released or absorbed; this energy change is known as electron affinity. Electron affinity is positive when energy is absorbed, and it is negative when energy is released.True / False.

False

Explanation:

Electron affinity is negative when energy is absorbed and it is positive when energy is released.

Electron affinity is defined as the energy released in adding an electron to a neutral atom in the gas phase.

It is a measure of the readiness of an atom to gain an electron.

In a reaction where energy is released, electron affinity is usually positive. These reactions are called exothermic reactions.

Endothermic reactions in which energy is absorbed have negative electron affinity values.

What is the mass in grams of 14.2 liters of sulfur dioxide gas at STP?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Mass = 40.4 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass in gram = ?

Volume of SO₂ = 14.2 L

Temperature = standard = 273 K

Pressure =  standard = 1 atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

1 atm × 14.2 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K   × 273 K

14.2 atm.L = n ×  22.41 atm.L/ mol

n = 14.2 atm.L/22.41 atm.L/ mol

n = 0.63 mol

Mass of sulfur dioxide:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.63 mol × 64.1 g/mol

Mass = 40.4 g

C12H26O + SO3+NaOH ----> C12H25NaSO4+ H2O
Vlad [161]

Answer:

We can solve this by the method of which i solved your one question earlier

so again here molar mass of C12H25NaSO4 is 288.372 and number of moles for 11900 gm of C12H25NaSO4 will be = 11900/288.372

which is almost = 41.26 moles

so to get one mole of C12H25NaSO4 we need one mole of C12H26O

so for 41.26 moles of C12H25NaSO4 it will require 41 26 moles of C12H26O

so the mass of C12H26O = 41.26× its molar mass

C12H26O = 41.26×186.34

= 7688.38 gm!!

so the conclusion is If you need 11900 g of C12H25NaSO4 (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) you need C12H26O 7688.38 gm !!

Again i d k wether it's right or wrong but i tried my best hope it helped you!!

"Write the electron Configuration expected for element 113 and the configurations for the two cations it is most likely to form"
arlik [135]

Answer:

Element:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6p⁶7s²5f¹⁴6d¹⁰7p¹

Cations:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6p⁶7s²5f¹⁴6d¹⁰

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6p⁶5f¹⁴6d¹⁰

Explanation:

The electron configuration is the distribution of the electrons in the sublevels in order of the crescent energy of them. The crescent energy of the sublevels follows the Linus Pauling's diagram, which is attached below. The sublevel "s" comports until 2 electrons, the sublevel "p" until 6 electrons, the sublevel "d" until 10 electrons, and sublevel "f" until 14 electrons.

So, for the element with an atomic number of 113, the neutral atom will have 113 electrons:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6p⁶7s²5f¹⁴6d¹⁰7p¹

Thus the element is at the 7 period (the highest level), and group 13 (most energic sublevel p with 1 electron), the group of the aluminum. It needs to lose 3 electrons to be stable and follow the octet rule, but the subshells of the last shell are too far away in energetic order, thus, it most probably to lose the electron of 7p and form a monovalent cation, and can lose the two electrons of 7s to form a trivalent cation:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6p⁶7s²5f¹⁴6d¹⁰

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6p⁶5f¹⁴6d¹⁰

ozzi

Answer: gas molecules will hit the container walls more frequently and with greater force

Explanation:

According to the postulates of  kinetic molecular theory:

1. The pressure exerted by a gas in a container results from collisions between the gas molecules and the container walls.

2. The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the kelvin temperature of the gas.

When the temperature is increased, so the average kinetic energy and the rms speed also increase. This means that the gas molecules will hit the container walls more frequently and with greater force because they are all moving faster. This increase the pressure.
