Which statement explains why large atoms are more reactive than small atoms?

1 answer:

3 0

<>"A. Large atoms have valence electrons farther from the nucleus and lose them more readily, so they are more reactive than small atoms. In contrast, the valence electron of a large atom like Cs is so loosely held that cesium explodes on contact with water."<>

A gas that effuses through a porous cylinder 1.87 times faster than chlorine gas. what is the molar mass and identity.

Rufina [12.5K]

From the Graham's law of effusion;
R1/R2 = √MM2/√MM1
Molar mass of chlorine gas is 71
Therefore;
1.87= √ 71 /√mm1
= 1.87² = 71/mm1
mm1 = 71/1.87²
= 71/3.4969
= 20.3
Thus, the molar mass of the other gas is 20.3 , and i think the gas is neon
