Answer:

<u>Option 1</u>:  N⁻³ > O⁻² > F⁻ > Na⁺ > Mg⁺²    

Explanation:

<u>Ionic radius is the radius of an atom´s ion in ionic crystal structure</u>.<u> </u><u><em>In an ion that lose an electron, to form a cation, the radius of the ion gets smaller</em></u><em>, </em>because the repulsion between electrons decrease because fewer electrons are present. Conversely, <u><em>adding on electron to a neutral atom, to form an anion, causes electron - electron repulsions to increase, so the size of the radius of the ion gets bigger.</em></u>                  

<u><em>Isoelectronic species are ions or elements that have the same number of electrons in their electronic shells but have different overall charges, because of their different atomic numbers</em></u>.                        

<u><em>In a isolelectronic series (same number of electrons),</em></u> <u><em>the increase of the positive charge (given by the number of protons in the nucleus), will cause a decrease in radius </em></u>beacuse the greater electrostatic attraction between the electrons and the nucleus. Consequently, the ion with the greatest nuclear charge will have the smallest ionic radius and the ion with the smallest nulear charge will have the largest ionic radius.  

<u>We will use this principle to solve our problem</u>.  

In our case, the given ions are:  

  • N⁻³ :    Z = 7,  e⁻ = 10
  • O⁻²:     Z= 8,   e⁻ =10
  • F⁻:       Z = 9,  e⁻ = 10
  • Na⁺:    Z= 11,   e⁻ = 10
  • Mg⁺²:  Z=12,   e⁻ =10

where Z= number of protons, and e⁻ = number of electrons.

<em><u>Hence the decreasing order of ionic radius is:</u></em>

N⁻³ > O⁻² > F⁻ > Na⁺ > Mg⁺²  

Have a nice day!

How many molecules are present in 187 grams of XeF4
PtichkaEL [24]

There are 5.43 x 10²³ present in  187 grams of XeF₄

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

Moles can also be determined from the amount of substance mass and its molar mass

\tt n(mol)=\dfrac{mass(m)}{MW}

mass of XeF₄ = 187 g

mol XeF₄ (MW=207,2836 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{187}{207,2836 g/mol}=0.902

Number of molecules :

\tt N=0.902\times 6.02\times 10^{23}\\\\N=5.43\times 10^{23}

Diethylene glycol is an organic compound used as a fuel in heating cans. Based on its structure and your data recorded in Data T
Firdavs [7]

Due to its higher oxygen content and based on its structure dietheylene glycol has a higher energy efficiency (cal/g) compared to isopropanol and paraffin wax.

<h3>What is the calorific value of a fuel?</h3>

The calorific value of a fuel is the amount of heat energy released from the combustion of the fuel under standard conditions.

Dietheylene glycol, isopropanol and paraffin wax are all used as fuels.

However, due to it higher oxygen content and based on its structure, diethethylene glycol has a higher calorific value than either isopropanol or paraffin wax.

Therefore, dietheylene glycol has a higher energy efficiency (cal/g) compared to isopropanol and paraffin wax.

About 95-98 percent of alcohol is oxidized to what two substances
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

D. Water and Carbondioxide

Explanation:

Combustion of organic compounds in the presence of excess Oxygen will liberate carbondioxide (CO2) and water vapour (H2O). This is an exothermic reaction because heat is liberated to the surroundings.

CnH2n+1OH(aq) + (3/2*n)O2(g) --> nCO2(g) + (n + 1)H2O(g)

Addition of Oxygen can also be termed as a redox reaction. In this case, alcohols are oxidised while the Oxygen is reduced.

Example, (propanol)

C3H7OH(aq) + 9/2O2(g) --> 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)
