Answer:

Option-B (Carbon and Silicon)

Explanation:

Among the given pairs only carbon and silicon have the most similar properties. This is because,

Sodium and Magnesium belong to different groups. Sodium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Magnesium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.

Example:

2 Na + Cl₂ → NaCl

Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂

As shown in reactions when Sodium and Magnesium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.

Carbon and Silicon show almost same properties because both belong to Group IV hence both are capable of forming four bonds. Also, they share the same property of self linkage in making a long chains.

Argon and Chlorine also belong to two different groups. Argon is present in Group VIII (Noble Gases) and Chlorine is present in Group VII (Halogens). Hence, Argon is an inert specie which is non reactive while Chlorine gives different reaction easily.

Potassium and Calcium belong to different groups. Potassium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Calcium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.

Example:

2 K + Cl₂ → KCl

Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂

As shown in reactions when Potassium and Calcium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.

calculate the difference in slope of the chemical potential against temperature on either side of the normal freezing point of w

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

(a) The normal freezing point of water (J·K−1·mol−1) is $-22Jmole^-^1k^-^1$

(b) The normal boiling point of water (J·K−1·mol−1) is $-109Jmole^-^1K^-^1$

(c) the chemical potential of water supercooled to −5.0°C exceed that of ice at that temperature is 109J/mole

Explanation:

Lets calculate

(a) - General equation -

$(\frac{d\mu(\beta )}{dt})p-(\frac{d\mu(\alpha) }{dt})_p$ = $-5_m(\beta )+5_m(\alpha )$ = $-\frac{\Delta H}{T}$

$\alpha ,\beta$ → phases

ΔH → enthalpy of transition

T → temperature transition

$(\frac{d\mu(l)}{dT})_p -(\frac{d\mu(s)}{dT})_p$ = $= -\frac{\Delta_fH}{T_f}$

= $\frac{-6.008kJ/mole}{273.15K}$ ( $\Delta_fH$ is the enthalpy of fusion of water)

= $-22Jmole^-^1k^-^1$

(b) $(\frac{d\mu(g)}{dT})_p-(\frac{d\mu(l)}{dT})_p= -\frac{\Delta_v_a_p_o_u_rH}{T_v_a_p_o_u_r}$

= $\frac{40.656kJ/mole}{373.15K}$ ( $\Delta_v_a_p_o_u_rH$ is the enthalpy of vaporization)

= $-109Jmole^-^1K^-^1$

$[\mu(l-5$ ° $C)-\mu(l,0$ ° $C)]$ = $[\mu(s-5$ ° $C)-\mu(s,0$ ° $C)]$ $=-S_m$ ΔT

$\mu(l,-5$ ° $C)-\mu(s,-5$ ° $C)=-Sm\DeltaT [\mu(l,0$

$\Delta\mu=(21.995Jmole^-^1K^-^1)\times (-5K)$

= 109J/mole

Assuming the volumes are additive, what is the [Cl−] in a solution obtained by mixing 297 mL of 0.675 M KCl and 664 mL of 0.338

Elden [556K]

Answer: The concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .....(1)

For KCl:

Molarity of KCl solution = 0.675 M

Volume of solution = 297 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.675=\frac{\text{Moles of KCl}\times 1000}{297}\\\\\text{Moles of KCl}=\frac{(0.675mol/L\times 297)}{1000}=0.200mol$

1 mole of KCl produces 1 mole of chloride ions and 1 mole of potassium ion

Moles of chloride ions in KCl = 0.200 moles

For magnesium chloride:

Molarity of magnesium chloride solution = 0.338 M

Volume of solution = 664 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.338=\frac{\text{Moles of }MgCl_2\times 1000}{664}\\\\\text{Moles of }MgCl_2=\frac{(0.338mol/L\times 664)}{1000}=0.224mol$

1 mole of magnesium chloride produces 2 moles of chloride ions and 1 mole of magnesium ion

Moles of chloride ions in magnesium chloride = $(2\times 0.224)=0.448mol$

Calculating the chloride ion concentration, we use equation 1:

Total moles of chloride ions in the solution = (0.200 + 0.448) moles = 0.648 moles

Total volume of the solution = (297 + 664) mL = 961 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=\frac{0.648mol\times 1000}{961}\\\\\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=0.674M$

Hence, the concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M
