Which elements have atoms that are likely to form an anion?

Chemistry
1 answer:
KengaRu [80]3 years ago
5 0
Answer:

Phosphorus, chlorine and selenium.

Explanation:

If you look at a periodic table, you will notice that phosphorus, chlorine and selenium are all in groups 15-17. Elements in these groups are more likely to gain electrons then they are to lose them, thus making them more likely to form an anion.
This is because they want to fill their outer valence shell of electrons so that they can have a full octet and for groups 15-17 it’s easier to gain 1-3 electrons then it is to loose 5-7 electrons.

Why can’t elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means?
fenix001 [56]
Why can't elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means? Too much energy is required, since you'd have to break them down into protons, neutrons, and electrons. You can get this much energy together with nuclear reactions, but not by chemical means.

How many miles of a gas at 100 c does it take to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa
Hatshy [7]

The complete question is as follows: How many moles of a gas at 100 c does it take to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa

Answer: There are 0.0489 moles of a gas at 100^{o}C is required to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa.

Explanation:

Given: Volume = 1.00 L,    

Pressure = 152 kPa (1 kPa = 1000 Pa) = 152000 Pa

Convert Pa into atm as follows.

1 Pa = 9.86 \times 10^{-6} atm\\152000 Pa = 152000 \times \frac{9.86 \times 10^{-6}atm}{1 Pa}\\= 1.5 atm

Temperature = 100^{o}C = (100 + 273) K = 373 K

Using the ideal gas formula as follows.

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = no. of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T = temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

PV = nRT\\1.5 atm \times 1.0 L = n \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 373 K\\n = \frac{1.5 atm \times 1.0 L}{0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 373 K}\\n = 0.0489 mol

Thus, we can conclude that there are 0.0489 moles of a gas at 100^{o}C is required to fill a 1.00 l flask to a pressure of 152kPa.

What is 2n^2 rule ( of science)​
lozanna [386]

2n² rule:

This rule is used to determine number of electrons in particular shell.

n=1 means K shell

n=2 means L shell

n=3 means M shell

n=4means N shell

The first K shell can hold upto 2 electrons, L shell can hold up to 8, third M shell can hold up to 18and the fourth N shell can hold upto 32 electrons. This rule of arrangement of electrons according to the shell is known 2n2 rule where n means number of shell.

For example: There is one proton in the nucleus of hydrogen atom, which moves in K shell path. It has no neutron.
