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.

Oxygen is produced by what part of photosynthesis? HURRY
nikklg [1K]

Answer:The oxygen during photosynthesis comes from split water molecules. During photosynthesis, the plant absorbs water and carbon dioxide. After the absorption, the water molecules are disassembled and converted into sugar and oxygen.

(a) Write the balanced neutralization reaction that occurs between H2SO4 and KOH in aqueous solution. Phases are optional. (b) S
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

These are two questions and two answers

Answer:

    Question 1:

  • <u>H₂SO₄ (aq) + 2KOH (aq) → K₂SO₄ (aq) + 2H₂O (l)</u>

    Question 2:

  • <u>0.201 M</u>

Explanation:

<u>Question 1:</u>

The<em> neutralization</em> reaction that occurs between H₂SO₄ and KOH is an acid-base reaction.

The products of an acid-base reaction are salt and water.

This is the sketch of such neutralization reaction:

1) <u>Word equation:</u>

  • sulfuric acid + potassium hydroxide → potassium sulfate + water

                 ↑                               ↑                              ↑                       ↑

               acid                          base                        salt                   water

<u>2) Skeleton equation (unbalanced)</u>

  • H₂SO₄ + KOH → K₂SO₄ + H₂O

<u>#) Balanced chemical equation (including phases)</u>

  • H₂SO₄ (aq) + 2KOH (aq) → K₂SO₄ (aq) + 2H₂O (l) ← answer

<u>Question 2:</u>

<u>1) Mol ratio:</u>

Using the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced chemical equation you get the mol ratio:

  • 1 mol H₂SO₄ (aq) : 2 mol KOH (aq) : 1 mol K₂SO₄ (aq) : mol 2H₂O (l)

<u>2) Moles of H₂SO₄:</u>

  • V = 0.750 liter
  • M = 0.480 mol/liter
  • M = n/V ⇒ n = M×V = 0.480 mol/liter × 0.750 liter = 0.360 mol

<u>3) Moles of KOH:</u>

  • V = 0.700 liter
  • M = 0.290 mol/liter
  • M = n/V ⇒ n = M × V = 0.290 mol/liter × 0.700 liter = 0.203 mol

<u>4) Determine the limiting reagent:</u>

a) Stoichiometric ratio:

   1 mol H₂SO₄ / 2 mol NaOH = 0.500 mol H₂SO4 / mol NaOH

b) Actual ratio:

   0.360 mol H₂SO4 / 0.203 mol NaOH = 1.77 mol H₂SO₄ / mol NaOH

Since hte actual ratio of H₂SO₄  is greater than the stoichiometric ratio, you conclude that H₂SO₄ is in excess.

<u>5) Amount of H₂SO₄ that reacts:</u>

  • Since, KOH is the limiting reactant, using 0.203 mol KOH and the stoichiometryc ratio 1 mol H₂SO₄ / 2 mol KOH, you get:

         x / 0.203 mol KOH = 1 mol H₂SO₄ / 2 mol KOH ⇒

         x = 0.203 / 2 = 0.0677 mol of H₂SO₄

<u>6) Concentration of H₂SO₄ remaining:</u>

  • Initial amount - amount that reacted = 0.360 mol - 0.0677 mol = 0.292 mol

  • Total volume = 0.700 liter + 0.750 liter = 1.450 liter

  • Concetration = M

        M = n / V = 0.292 mol / 1.450 liter = 0.201 M ← answer

A 2.912 g sample of a compounds containing only C, H, and O was completely oxidized in a reaction that yielded 3.123 g of water
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

18 gram of water contains 2 g of hydrogen

3.123 gram of water will contain 2 x 3.123 / 18 = .347 g of hydrogen .

44 gram of carbon dioxide contains 12 g of carbon

7.691 gram of carbon dioxide will contain 12 x 7.691 / 44 = 2.1 g of carbon .

So the sample will contain 2.912 - ( .347 + 2.1 ) g of oxygen .

= .465 g of oxygen .

moles of Carbon = 2.1 / 12 = .175

moles of hydrogen = .347 / 1 = .347

moles of oxygen = .465 / 16 = .029

Ratio of moles of carbon , oxygen and hydrogen ( C,O,H )

= 0.175 : 0.029 : 0.347

= .175/ .029 : 1 : .347 / .029

= 6 : 1 : 12

So empirical formula = C₆H₁₂O

Let the molecular formula be (C_6H_{12}O)_n

molecular weight = n ( 6 x 12 + 12x 1 + 16)

= 100 n

Given 100 n = 100.1

n = 1

Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O.
