Explain why it is harder to remove an inner shell electrons than a valence electron from an atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
VMariaS [17]3 years ago
6 0
<span> It makes sense that an inner shell electron would be tougher to remove than a valence electron because the inner shell electron is closer to the positive nucleus of the atom. Seeing as an electron caries a negative charge it would be too attracted to the positive core to leave readily. Also, the inner shell electrons are constantly repelling electrons outside of it's energy level (however the reason these electrons outside innershell energy levels don't simply fly away is the charge of the positive core overcomes the smaller charges of the comparably negligible inner shell electrons, but that repulsion is still there so keep that in mind) </span>

What is the diffrence between speed and avarege speed
Gekata [30.6K]
Speed is actually instantaneous speed, the speed an object is moving at that very instant.
But average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time.
Let's say you travelled 10 miles in 2 hours, your average speed would be 10 divided by 2, which is 10 miles / hr.

But during those 10 miles you may be accelerating, decelerating and be travelling 1 mile/hour and 20 miles/hour at another point. But your average speed would be total distance / total time. So your instantaneous speed can change throughout that period of time.

Give the percent yield when 28.16 g of CO2 are formed from the reaction of 4.000 moles of C8H18 with 4.000 moles of O2.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Percentage yield =  25%

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of C₈H₁₈ = 4 mol

Moles of O₂ = 4 mol

Actual yield of CO₂ = 28.16 g

Percentage yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ → 16CO₂ + 18H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of CO₂ with O₂ and C₈H₁₈.

                 C₈H₁₈     :      CO₂

                     2        :       16

                     4        :       16/2×4=32 mol

                  O₂         :      CO₂

                    25        :      16

                     4         :       16/25×4=2.56 mol

Mass of CO₂:

Mass = number of moles× molar mass

Mass = 2.56 mol ×44 g/mol

Mass = 112.64 g

Percentage yield:

Percentage yield = Actual yield /theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield = 28.16 g / 112.64 g× 100

Percentage yield = 0.25× 100

Percentage yield =  25%
