List the numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons in Chlorine-18.

Which reactants would lead to a spontaneous reaction?

balandron [24]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The elements which have excess or deficiency of electrons will react readily.

Atomic number of Mn is 25 and electronic configuration of $Mn^{2+}$ is [Ar] $4s^{0}3d^{5}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Cr is 24 and electronic configuration of $Cr$ is [Ar] $4s^{1}3d^{5}$ . This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Fe is 26 and electronic configuration of $Fe$ is [Ar] $4s^{2}3d^{6}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Cu is 29 and electronic configuration of $Cu^{2+}$ is [Ar] $4s^{0}3d^{9}$ . This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Al is 13 and electronic configuration of Al is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{1}$ . This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Ba is 56 and electronic configuration of $Ba^{2+}$ is [Kr] $4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{6}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Mg is 12 and electronic configuration of $Mg^{2+}$ is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}$ . This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Sn is 50 and electronic configuration of Sn is [Kr] $4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{2}$ . This configuration is stable.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, only Fe and $Cu^{2+}$ reactants would lead to a spontaneous reaction as they have incomplete sub-shells. Therefore, in order to gain stability they will readily react.

Do the following problem using significant figures.<br> 4.5 cm x 2000.0 cm x 4 cm =<br> I<br> cm^3

Anon25 [30]

Given :

Measurements $4.5\ cm\times 2000.0\ cm\times 4\ cm$ .

To Find :

The multiplication using significant figures .

Solution :

We know , the least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

So , significant figure( S.F) in 4.5 cm is 2 .

S.F in 2000.0 cm is 5 .

S.F in 4 cm is 1 .

So , minimum S.F is 1 .

Therefore , S.F of their product is 1 .

Now , multiplying them we will get :

$M=4.5\times 2000.0\times 4 \ cm^3\\\\M=36000\ cm^3$

Now , converting 36000 in 1 significant digit .

First we will write it in exponential 2 S.F form.

$3.6\times 10^4 \ cm^3$

Now , to convert 3.6 into 1 S.F we should round off this .

So , round off 3.6 we will get 4 .

Therefore , The multiplication using significant figures is $4\times 10^4\ cm^3$ .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Balance the equation: Ba(OH)2(aq) + H3PO4(aq)

alexgriva [62]

The products of the unbalanced reaction are as follows:

Ba(OH)₂ (aq) + H₃PO₄(aq) → Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + H₂O(l)

This is an acid base reaction where Ba(OH)₂ is the base and H₃PO₄ is the acid. Acid base reaction is also known as neutralization reaction where the acid and base react with each other to form salt and water. In this reaction Ba₃(PO₄)₂ is the salt. Also barium phosphate (Ba₃(PO₄)₂) is insoluble in water and forms a solid precipitate.

The balanced reaction is as follows:

3Ba(OH)₂ (aq) + 2H₃PO₄(aq) → Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6H₂O(l)

There are three Ba from Ba₃(PO₄)₂ on the product side of the equation, so to balance 3 coefficient was placed before Ba(OH)₂. Similarly, 2 coefficient was placed before H₃PO₄ on the reactant side to balance the two phosphate from Ba₃(PO₄)₂ on the product side. Finally, 6 coefficient was placed before H₂O on the product side, to balance the number of H and O atoms on both side of the equation.

A sample of oxygen gas occupies a volume of 2.,0cm3 at pressure of 700K pa. what will be pressure of the same sample occupies a

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The pressure will be 933.33 Kpa

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume V₁ = 200 cm³ (note, there is a mistake in the volume. It is supposed to be 200 cm³)

Pressure P₁ = 700 Kpa

Pressure P₂ = ??? (unknown)

Volume V₂ = 150 cm³

Temperature = constant

Using Boyle's law:

PV = constant

i.e.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

700 Kpa × 200 cm³ = P₂ × 150 cm³

P₂ = (700 Kpa × 200 cm³)/150 cm³

P₂ = 933.33 Kpa
