Which element is most likely to gain electrons in a chemical reaction?

1 answer:

6 0

Option 2, Br. I'll go over why all other three options are incorrect.

Option 1 - Krypton is a Noble gas, and so it doesn't need to accept electrons since it has an octet.

Option 3 and 4 - Both Calcium and Barium are alkaline earth metals, and give away electrons, since they only have 2.

-T.B.

using the equation 2h2+o2-->2h2o, if 192g of oxygen are produced, how many grams of hydrogen must react with it

UkoKoshka [18]

The balanced chemical reaction is:

2H2+O2-->2H2O

To determine the mass of hydrogen that is needed, we need use the initial amount of oxygen and relate it to hydrogen from the reaction given. We do as follows:

192 g O2 ( 1 mol O2 / 32 g O2) ( 2 mol H2 / 1 mol O2 ) ( 2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2 ) = 24.24 g H2

What is mineral in science?

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

minerals

Explanation:

defines a mineral as "a naturally occurring inorganic element or compound having an. orderly internal structure and characteristic chemical composition, crystal form, and physical. properties." Minerals differ from rocks, which are naturally occurring solids composed of one or more minerals.

If two gases with pressures of 2 atm and 3 atm are mixed at a constant temperature, what will the total pressure be?

slamgirl [31]

If two gases with pressures of 2 atm and 3 atm are mixed at constant temperature, the total pressure will be the sum of the two pressures. Therefore the answer is D. 2 atm + 3 atm or 5 atm will be the total pressure of the gas mixture.

What is the vapor pressure of CS2CS2 in mmHgmmHg at 26.5 ∘C∘C? Carbon disulfide, CS2CS2, has PvapPvap = 100 mmHgmmHg at −−5.1 ∘C

Digiron [165]

Answer: 26.5 mm Hg

Explanation:

The vapor pressure is determined by Clausius Clapeyron equation:

$ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure at $26.5^oC$ = ?

$P_2$ = final pressure at $-5.1^oC$ = 100 mm Hg

= enthalpy of vaporisation = 28.0 kJ/mol =28000 J/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K

$T_1$ = initial temperature = $26.5^oC=273+26.5=299.5K$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $-5.1^oC=273+(-5.1)=267.9K$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

$\log (\frac{P_1}{100})=\frac{28000}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{299.5}-\frac{1}{267.9}]$

$\log (\frac{P_1}{100})=-0.576$

$\frac{P_1}{100}=0.265$

$P_1=26.5mmHg$

Thus the vapor pressure of $CS_2CS_2$ in mmHg at 26.5 ∘C is 26.5

Suppose you have 81.8 g of Cd. How many Cd atoms are present? Report your answer in scientific notation using the format of 6.02

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

1. number of Cd atoms = 4.384 × 10²³

2. number of moles of Ti = 0.817 mol

3. molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 138.077 g/mol

4. moles of Sildenafil = 0.249 mmol

Explanation:

1. given data

mass of Cd = 81.8 g

number of Cd atoms = ?

molar mass of Cd = 112.411 g/mol

Solution

1st we find out the number of moles of Cd

number of moles = mass / molar mass

number of moles of Cd = 81.8 g / 112.411 g.mol⁻

number of moles of Cd = 0.728 mol

Now we find out the number of Cd atoms

number of atoms = moles × 6.022 × 10²³

number of Cd atoms = 0.728 (6.022 × 10²³)

number of Cd atoms = 4.384 × 10²³

2. Given data

Mass of Ti = 39.1 g

moles = ?

molar mass Ti = 47.867 g/mol

Solution

Now we will find out the number of moles

number of moles = mass / molar mass

number of moles of Ti = 39.1 g / 47.867 g.mol⁻

number of moles of Ti = 0.817 mol

3. Given data

chemical formula of Salicylic acid = C₇H₆O₃

molar mass of salicylic acid = ?

molar mass of carbon = 12.011

molar mass of hydrogen = 1.008

molar mass of oxygen = 15.999

molar mass of molecule = number of moles of atoms × molar mass of atoms

molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 7 (12.011) + 6 (1) + 3 (16)

molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 84.077 g + 6 g + 48 g

molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 138.077 g/mol

4. Given data

molar mass of Sildenafil = 474.5828 g/mol

mass given = 0.118 g

moles of Sildenafil = ?

Solution

Now we find out the number of moles

number of moles = mass / molar mass

number of moles Sildenafil = 0.118 g / 474.5828 g/mol

number of moles Sildenafil = 0.0003 mol

as this is very small amount we convert it into millimoles

millimoles = moles × 1000

millimoles of Sildenafil = 0.000249 × 1000

millimoles of Sildenafil = 0.249 mmol
