Which atom has higher electron affinity F or I, Why?​

Chemistry

pshichka [43]3 years ago

Down a group, electron affinity typically decreases. This is because the atomic radius increases down a group.
Fluorine, which is higher up the group then chlorine, has a lower electron affinity. This is because the electrons in the outermost shell of a fluorine atom are closer together.
The electron gained also feels a great amount of repulsion from the electrons originally in the outermost shell. Energy is required to keep the gained electron in the shell, causing fluorine to have a smaller electron affinity than chlorine.
Hope this helps :)

Each Excedrin tablet contains 250 mg aspirin (ACE), 250 mg of acetaminophen (ACE), and 65 mg of caffeine (CAF). Calculate the th
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

a) 37.04%  b) 37.04%  c) 9.63%

Explanation:

The theoretical percent recovery (Tr), is the total percentage of each compound in the sample. Depending on the technique used to recovery the compounds, the percent recovery will be less than the theoretical, because no technique is 100% efficient.

So, to calculate the theoretical, it will be the mass of the compound divided by the mass of the sample multiplied by 100%.

a) Tr = (250 mg)/(675 mg) * 100%

Tr = 37.04%

b) Tr = (250 mg)/(675 mg) * 100%

Tr = 37.04%

c) Tr = (65 mg)/(675 mg) * 100%

Tr = 9.63%

grin007 [14]

Answer:

2. 100 times more hydroxide ions,

Explanation:

Acidity and alkalinity are measured with a logarithmic scale called pH. Each one-unit change in the pH scale corresponds to a ten-fold change in hydrogen ion concentration. Therefore, a 1.0 liter aqueous solution with a pH of 5.0 contains 100 times more hydronium ions than a 1.0 liter aqueous solution with a pH of 7.0
