Answer:

(a) AL

(b) Sc

(c)Al

Explanation:

Ionization Energy is the energy required to remove electrons from the outer most orbitals of atom.

The higher the electron is on energy level the farther its from nucleus and more loosely bonded thus need lesser energy.

By looking at electron configuration we can figure out which electron will need more energy.

<h3>(a)Na, Mg, Al</h3>

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s², 3d¹

Na₁₁ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s¹

Mg₁₂ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²

Al₁₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 2p¹

Al will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

<h3>(b) K, Ca, Sc</h3>

K₁₉⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s²

Ca₂₀⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s²

Sc₂₁⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s², 3d¹

Sc will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

<h3>(c) Li, Al, B</h3>

Li₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s¹

Al₁₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 2p¹

B₅ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p¹

Al will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

Answer:

A. Al

B. Sc

C. Al

Explanation:

The third ionisation energy is the energy required to an extra electron from a +2 ion or the energy required to remove the third electron from an element.

Lithium - 1s2 2s1

Sodium - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

Magnesium - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2

Aluminium - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1

Potassium - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1

Calcium- 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2

Boron - 1s2 2s2 2p1

Scandium - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d1 4s2

Removing 2 electrons,

Li2+- 1s1

Na2+ - 1s2 2s2 2p5

Mg2+ - 1s2 2s2 2p6

Al2+ - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

K2+ - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5

Ca2+ - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4

Boron - 1s2 2s1

Scandium - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1

So comparing,

A. Na, Mg, Al

The third electron is lost from a p- orbital and the energy level of p- is less than s- orbital but 3s is way less than the 2p so the lowest third ionisation energy is Al

B. K, Ca, Sc

The third electrons are lost from the 3p orbital in K and Ca but in 4s in Sc and if you remember, 4s has a lesser energy level than 3p orbital. So, Sc has the lowest third ionisation energy.

C. Li, Al, B

Al has the lowest third ionisation energy because Li loses its from 1s which is closest to the nucleus and B from 2s which is also close to the nucleus.

Please help with this question​
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

215 amu

Explanation:

In the reactants:

There is 1 iron atom, 3 chlorine atoms, 6 hydrogen atoms and 3 oxygen atoms:

  • Fe: 56 × 1 = 56
  • Cl: 35 × 3 = 105
  • H: 1 × 6 = 6
  • O: 16 × 3 = 48

56 + 105 + 6 + 48 = 215 amu

Hope this helps!

how many grams of antifreeze would be required per 500 g of water to prevent the water from feezing at a temperature of -39° C​
andrezito [222]

Answer:

333.7g of antifreeze

Explanation:

Freezing point depression in a solvent (In this case, water) occurs by the addition of a solute. The law is:

ΔT = Kf × m × i

Where:

ΔT is change in temperature (0°C - -20°C = 20°C)

Kf is freezing point depression constant (1.86°C / m)

m is molality of solution (moles solute / 0.5 kg solvent -500g water-)

i is Van't Hoff factor (1, assuming antifreeze is ethylene glycol -C₂H₄(OH)₂)

Replacing:

20°C = 1.86°C / m  × moles solute / 0.5 kg solvent × 1

5.376 = moles solute

As molar mass of ethylene glycol is 62.07g/mol:

5.376 moles × (62.07g / 1mol) = <em>333.7g of antifreeze</em>.
