Why do atoms bond? Why do noble gases not form compounds or molecules?

Chemistry

1. Atoms form chemical bonds in order to make their outer electron shells more stable. 2. noble gases could not form compounds due to their full valence shell of electrons that rendered them very chemically stable and unreactive.

The noble gasses are the least reactive of all elements, but the heavier ones form some molecules. Helium and neon never form molecules. They have completely filled shells with no orbitals available to make covalent bonds and have very high ionization energies so that they do not form ions.

For the reaction, 2Cr2+ + Cl2(g) ---> 2Cr3+ + 2Cl- Ecell (standard conditions) = 1.78V
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Eºcell = -1.78 V

Explanation:

The Eº cell is an intensive property, i.e they do not depend on the quantity of material present and the desired reaction in our problem  is exactly half the reverse of the one given, the Eºcell will then  be the negative of the first then Eºcell is -1.78 V and the redox reaction will be non-spontaneous as opposed to the first.

Nitrogen gas effuses through an opening 1.59 times faster than an unknown gas.
Elodia [21]
A) Nitrogen has an ATOMIC mass number of 14, but nitrogen gas consists of N₂ molecules, so the mass to use in this problem is 28 g/mol. Rates of effusion ∝ 1/√(mass), so 

<span>√(mass unknown) /√28 = (rate N₂ effusion)/(rate unknown effusion) = 1.59 </span>
<span>∴ mass unknown = (1.59)²(28) = 70.78 g/mol </span>

<span>B) One possible gas that comes close for this mass is NF₃.</span>

In a nuclear fission reaction a heavy nucleus divides to form smaller nuclei and one or more neutrons. Many nuclei can undergo f
Effectus [21]

Answer:

\frac{235}{92} U +\frac{1}{0} n -------> \frac{139}{36} Ba + \frac{94}{56} Kr + 3\frac{1}{0} n

\frac{235}{92} U + \frac{1}{0} n -------> \frac{90}{38} Sr  + \frac{143}{54} Xe + 3\frac{1}{0} n

Explanation:

In equation 1, equating the mass number (A) on both sides.

A = 235 + 1 = A + 94 + 3*1

236 = A + 94 + 3

A = 236 - 94 = 3

A = 139  

Equate the atomic numbers on both sides

92 + 0 = Z + 36 + 3*0

92 = Z + 36

Z = 92 - 36

Z = 56

In reaction 2, equating the mass number on both sides

235 + 1 = A + 143 + 3 *1

236 = A + 143 + 3

236 = Z + 146

Z = 90

Equatoing the atomic number of both sides

92 + 0 = Z + 54 + 3*0

92 = Z + 54

Z = 92 - 54

Z = 38.
