For NaBr(aq) hydrogen gas is formed at the cathode. Hydrogen in water is reduced to hydrogen gas. For NaBr(aq), bromine, Br2(l), will be produced instead of oxygen gas at the anode. 

<span>For sodium sulfate hydrogen gas is formed at the cathode. Hydrogen in water is reduced to hydrogen gas. Oxygen gas will be produced at the anode. </span>

<span>Should someone suggest that sodium metal is formed at the cathode, rest assured that that can't happen. Sodium metal reacts with water to make Na+. </span>

<span>Lead(II) iodide is insoluble in water. Therefore, not much will happen since there is no electrolyte.</span>

How many moles are in 15.5-g SiO2
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

0.26 moles

Explanation:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Mass of SiO2 = 15.5g

Molar mass of SiO2 = 60.08g/mol

Number of moles = 15.5g/60.08g/mol

=0.257

= 0.26 moles

Please someone help me out thank you I’ll give brainlist :))

Answer:

Ionization energy increases going left to right across a period and increases from bottom to top in a group

Electron affinity increases when going up a group

If we are excluding noble gases (aka group 8/18), Chlorine is the element that has the greatest electron affinity. This is because Fluorine's 2p orbital is limited and packed which doesn't quite allow sharing of the orbital with extra electrons easily, while Chlorine has a 3p orbital allowing more space for electrons, where the orbital electrons would be inclined to do so.

Helium is the element with the greatest ionization energy since it's at the top and energy (from Oganesson to Helium) increases when going across a period (from Hydrogen to Helium).
