Answer:

Detail is given below

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm

In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N

In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.

For each of the reactions, calculate the mass (in grams) of the product formed when 15.12g of the underlined reactant completely

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Part A : amount of product (KCl) = 28.88 g

Part B : amount of product (KBr) = 46.13 g

Part C : amount of product (Cr₂O₃) = 17.3 g

Part D: amount of product (SrO) = 35.76 g

Explanation:

Part A:

Data Given:

Reaction :

2K(s) + Cl₂(g) --------> 2KCl

Amount of underline Reactant (K) = 15. 12g

amount of other reactant = more than enough

Explanation:

As the Potassium (K) is 15.12g and other reactant that is chlorine is more than enough so the K is limiting reagent.

So, amount of product depend on the amount of Potassium (K)

Now Look at Given Reaction:

2K(s) + Cl₂(g) --------> 2KCl

2mol 1mol 2mol

it shows that

2 mole of K give 2 mole of KCl

if we represent mole in grams

Then

Molar mass of K = 39 g/mol

Molar mass of KCl = (39 + 35.5)

Molar mass of KCl = 74.5 g/mol

So the look again to reaction in terms of grams

2K(s) + Cl₂(g) --------> 2KCl

2mole (39 g/mol) 2mole (74.5 g/mol)

78 g 149 g

Apply the Unity formula

78 g of Potassium ≅ 149 g of KCl

Then

15.12 g of Potassium ≅ how many g of Product (KCl)

By doing cross multiplication

X g of Product (KCl) = 149 g of KCl x 15.12 g of K / 78 g of K

X g of Product (KCl) = 28.88 g

So the amount of product (KCl) = 28.88 g

Part B:

Data Given:

Reaction :

2K(s) + Br₂(g) --------> 2KBr

Amount of underline Reactant (K) = 15. 12g

amount of other reactant = more than enough

Explanation:

As the Potassium (K) is 15.12g and other reactant that is Bromine is more than enough so the K is limiting reagent.

So, amount of product depend on the amount of Potassium (K)

Now Look at Given Reaction:

2K(s) + Br₂(g) --------> 2KBr

2mol 1mol 2mol

it shows that

2 mole of K give 2 mole of KBr

if we represent mole in grams

Then

Molar mass of K = 39 g/mol

Molar mass of KBr = (39 + 80)

Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mol

So, look again to reaction in terms of grams

2K(s) + Br₂(g) --------> 2KBr

2mole (39 g/mol) 2mole (119 g/mol)

78 g 238 g

Apply the Unity formula

78 g of Potassium ≅ 238 g of KBr

Then

15.12 g of Potassium ≅ how many g of Product (KBr)

By doing cross multiplication

X g of Product (KBr) = 238 g of KBr x 15.12 g of K / 78 g of K

X g of Product (KBr) = 46.13 g

So the amount of product (KBr) = 46.13 g

Part C:

Data Given:

Reaction :

4Cr(s) + 3O₂(g) --------> 2Cr₂O₃

Amount of underline Reactant (Cr) = 15. 12g

amount of other reactant = more than enough

Explanation:

As the Chromium (Cr) is 15.12g and other reactant that is Oxygen is more than enough so the Cr is limiting reagent.

So, amount of product depend on the amount of Chromium (Cr)

Now Look at Given Reaction:

4Cr(s) + 3O₂(g) --------> 2Cr₂O₃

4mol 3mol 2mol

it shows that

4 mole of Cr give 2 mole of Cr₂O₃

if we represent mole in grams

Then

Molar mass of Cr = 52 g/mol

Molar mass of 2Cr₂O₃ = 2 [2 (52) + 3(16) ] = 2 (104+ 48)

Molar mass of 2Cr₂O₃ = 304 g/mol

So, look again to reaction in terms of grams

4Cr(s) + 3O₂(g) --------> 2Cr₂O₃

4 mol (52 g/mol) 2 mole (304 g/mol)

208 g 608 g

Apply the Unity formula

208 g of Chromium ≅ 608 g of Cr₂O₃

Then

15.12 g of Chromium ≅ how many g of Product (Cr₂O₃)

By doing cross multiplication

X g of Product (Cr₂O₃) = 238 g of Cr₂O₃ x 15.12 g of Cr / 208 g of Cr

X g of Product (Cr₂O₃) = 17.3 g

So the amount of product (Cr₂O₃) = 17.3 g

Part D:

Data Given:

Reaction :

2Sr(s) + O₂(g) --------> 2SrO(s)

Amount of underline Reactant (Sr) = 15. 12g

amount of other reactant = more than enough

Explanation:

As the Strontium (Sr) is 15.12g and other reactant that is Oxygen is more than enough so the Sr is limiting reagent.

So, amount of product depend on the amount of Strontium (Sr)

Now Look at Given Reaction:

2Sr(s) + O₂(g) --------> 2SrO(s)

2mol 1mol 2mol

it shows that

2 mole of Sr give 2 mole of SrO

if we represent mole in grams

Then

Molar mass of Sr = 87.6 g/mol

Molar mass of 2SrO = 2 [87.6 + 16] = 2 (103.6)

Molar mass of 2SrO = 207.2 g/mol

So, look again to reaction in terms of grams

2Sr(s) + O₂(g) --------> 2SrO(s)

2 mol ( 87.6 g/mol) 2 mole (207.2 g/mol)

175.2 g 414.4 g

Apply the Unity formula

175.2 g of Strontium ≅ 414.4 g of SrO

Then

15.12 g of Strontium ≅ how many g of Product (SrO)

By doing cross multiplication

X g of Product (SrO) = 414.4 g of SrO x 15.12 g of Sr / 175.2 g of Sr

X g of Product (SrO) = 35.76 g

So the amount of product (SrO) = 35.76 g

Draw the product formed when the following diene is treated with one equivalent of HCl. Do not show stereochemistry in your answ

garri49 [273]

Answer:

4-chloro-4-methyl-cyclohexene.

Explanation:

Hello,

On the attached picture you will find the chemical reaction forming the required product, 4-chloro-4-methyl-cyclohexene. In this case, according to the Markovnicov’s rule, it is more likely for the chlorine to be substituted at the carbon containing the methyl radical in addition to the hydrogen to the next carbon to break the double bond and yield the presented product.

Best regards.

After 42 days, a 2.0 g sample of phosphorous-32 contains only 0.25 g of the isotope. What is the half-life of phosphorus-32?

tester [92]

Answer:

Half life of phosphorous-32 = 14 days

Explanation:

Given data:

Total mass of phosphorous-32 = 2.0 g

After 42 days mass left = 0.25 g

Half life of phosphorous-32 = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of half lives passed.

At time zero = 2.0 g

At first half life = 2.0 g/2 = 1.0 g

At 2nd half life = 1.0 g/2 = 0.5 g

At 3rd half life = 0.5 g/2 = 0.25 g

Half life:

Half life = T elapsed / half lives

Half life = 42 days/ 3

Half life = 14 days
