Answer:

Option (d) chlorine has a greater ionization energy than sodium

Explanation:

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion. Sodium has just 1 electron in it's outmost shell and chlorine has 7.

Sodium needs 7 electrons to complete it's octet configuration and chlorine needs just 1.

Sodium can not attract 7 electrons to complete it's octet configuration instead it will easily lose the 1 electron in it's outmost shell to form cation. On the other hand, it will be difficult for chlorine to lose any of it's outmost electrons. This makes chlorine to have higher ionization energy than sodium.

If you had 15 molecules of H2 and an unlimited supply of N2, how many
Masja [62]

Answer:

10 molecules of NH₃.

Explanation:

N₂ + 3H₂ --> 2NH₃

As the N₂ supply is unlimited, what we need to do to solve this problem is <u>convert molecules of H₂ into molecules of NH₃</u>. To do so we use the <em>stoichiometric coefficients</em> of the balanced reaction:

  • 15 molecules H₂ * \frac{2moleculesNH_3}{3moleculesH_2} = 10 molecules NH₃

10 NH₃ molecules could be prepared from 15 molecules of H₂ and unlimited N₂.
