The answer would be the 3. Mg + energy--> mg+ + e- 
Ionization Energy is the amount of energy vital to eliminate the most loosely bond electron from an atom in the gas stage. Since Magnesium has a higher first energy which is 738 kj/mol, is the energy needed to remove the outermost, or highest energy.

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom is known as ionization energy.

As the atomic size of an atom increases then there will be less force of attraction between the nucleus and valence electrons of the atom. Hence, with lesser amount of energy the valence electrons can be removed.

As a result, ionization energy will decrease.

Now, potassium is larger in size than sodium. Hence, ionization energy of potassium is less than sodium.

And, Na, Mg and Al are all period 3 elements. It is known that across a period there is an increase in ionization energy of the elements due to decrease in their atomic size.

Hence, aluminium being the smallest will have the greatest ionization energy.

Thus, we can conclude that the reaction Al + energy \rightarrow Al^{+} + e^{-} will have the greatest first ionization energy.

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

<h2>13.82 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question we have

density =  \frac{698}{50.5}  \\  = 13.8217...

We have the final answer as

<h3>13.82 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

A buffer is prepared by adding 139 mL of 0.39 M NH3 to 169 mL of 0.19 M NH4NO3. What is the pH of the final solution? (Assume th
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

pH = 9.48

Explanation:

We have first to realize that NH₃ is a weak base:

NH₃ + H₂O ⇔ NH₄⁺ + OH⁻     Kb = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵

and we are adding this weak base to a solution of NH₄NO₃ which being a salt dissociates 100 % in water.

Effectively what we have here is a buffer of a weak base and its conjugate acid. Therefore, we need the Henderson-Hasselbach formula for weak bases given by:

pOH = pKb + log ( [ conjugate acid ] / [  weak base ]

mol NH₃ = 0.139 L x 0.39 M = 0.054 mol

mol NH₄⁺ = 0.169 L x 0.19 M = 0.032 mol

Now we have all the information required to calculate the pOH ( Note that we dont have to calculate the concentrations since in the formula they are a ratio and the volume will cancel out)

pOH = -log(1.8 x 10⁻⁵) + log ( 0.032/0.054) = 4.52

pOH + pH = 14 ⇒ pH = 14 - 4.52 = 9.48

The solution is basic which agrees  with NH₃ being  a weak base.

What are some of the uses of copper?​
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Most copper is used in electrical equipment such as wiring and motors. This is because it conducts both heat and electricity very well, and can be drawn into wires. It also has uses in construction (for example roofing and plumbing), and industrial machinery (such as heat exchangers).

Describe the scale used to measure the basicity of a substance. Demonstrate how you could differentiate a weak base from a stron
amm1812

The scale used to measure the basicity of a substance is called the pH Scale. A base which when measured on a pH scale obtains a  value greater than 7 but less than or equal to 10 is weak base and from 10-14 is strong base

<h3>Meaning of Base and basicity</h3>

A base is any substance that has the ability to accept hydrogen ion in water and also netralize an acid when mixed together.

Basicity is an attribute associated with the pH scale measurement of values above 7 to 14.

Basicity increases on the scale from 7 to 14. On the pH scale 7 is neutral. So the higher we go the more basic a solution becomes until it gets to its highest point which is 14.

In conclusion, The scale used to measure the basicity of a substance is called the pH Scale. A base which when measured on a pH scale obtains a  value greater than 7 but less than or equal to 10 is weak base and from 10-14 is strong base
