Chemistry

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.

How many grams of Na2SO4, (molar mass =142.0 g/mol) are there in 15 mL of 0.50 m Na2SO4 solution?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

1.1 g Na2SO4

Explanation:

First convert mL to L. Then multiply by the Molarity to get moles, then multiply by the molar mass to get grams.

15 mL x     1 L       x       0.50 mol Na2SO4     x        142 g        =          1.1 g

              10^3 mL                 1 L                                   mol                     Na2SO4
