Which is easier to remove: a valence electron from, Li or Na? Explain why.

Chemistry
1 answer:
scZoUnD [109]3 years ago
7 0

The atomic number of Li is 3

Electron configuration of Li : 1s² 2s¹

The atomic number of Na is 11

Electron configuration of Na : 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹

Thus there is one electron in the valence shell of Li (2s¹) and that of Na (3s¹). However, the valence electron in Na is in a shell that is farther away from the nucleus compared to that of Li. As a result, the Na valence electron will be held less tightly by the nucleus i.e. it will experience a reduced nuclear attraction and can be removed easily than the Li 2s electron.

What is the pH of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 4.5 x<br> 10-6 M ?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

<h2>5.35 </h2>

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can be found by using the formula

pH = - log [ {H}^{+} ]

We have

pH =  -  log(4.5 \times  {10}^{ - 6} )  \\  = 5.346787...

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.35 </h3>

Hope this helps you

Water has a density of 1g/ml. what is the mass of the water if it fills a 10ml container?
notka56 [123]
It's 10.
Mass = density x volume
M = 1g/ml(10ml) = 10g

How much energy, in joules, does 150.0 g of water with an initial temperature of 25 C need to absorb be raised to a final temper
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

31395 J

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of water = 150 g

Initial temperature = 25 °C

Final temperature = 75 °C

Energy absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

q = m . c . ΔT

we know that specific heat of water is 4.186 J/g.°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature

ΔT = 75 °C - 25 °C

ΔT = 50 °C

now we will put the values in formula

q = m . c . ΔT

q = 150 g × 4.186 J/g.°C × 50 °C

q = 31395 J

so, 150 g of water need to absorb 31395 J of energy to raise the temperature from 25°C to 75 °C .

Automobile airbags contain solid sodium azide, NaN3, that reacts to produce nitrogen gas when heated, thus inflating the bag. 2N
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer : The value of work done for the system is 1144.69 J

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of NaN_3

\text{Moles of }NaN_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }NaN_3}{\text{Molar mass of }NaN_3}

Molar mass of NaN_3 = 65.01 g/mole

\text{Moles of }NaN_3=\frac{20.2g}{65.01g/mole}=0.311mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of nitrogen gas.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2NaN_3(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+3N_2(g)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of NaN_3 react to give 3 mole of N_2

So, 0.311 moles of NaN_3 react to give \frac{0.311}{2}\times 3=0.466 moles of N_2

Now we have to calculate the volume of nitrogen gas.

Using ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

where,

P = Pressure of N_2 gas = 1.00 atm

V = Volume of N_2 gas = ?

n = number of moles N_2 = 0.466 mole

R = Gas constant = 0.0821L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of N_2 gas = 22^oC=273+22=295K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.00atm\times V=0.466mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 295K

V=11.3L

As initially no nitrogen was present. So,

Volume expanded = Volume of nitrogen evolved

Thus,

Expansion work = Pressure × Volume

Expansion work = 1.00 atm × 11.3 L

Expansion work = 11.3 L.atm

Conversion used : (1 L.atm = 101.3 J)

Expansion work = 11.3 × 101.3 = 1144.69 J

Therefore, the value of work done for the system is 1144.69 J
