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.

How many molecules are in 68.0 g of H2S
Kryger [21]

The correct answer is 12.044 × 10²³ molecules.  

The molecular mass of H₂S is 34 gram per mole.  

Number of moles is determined by using the formula,  

Number of moles = mass/molecular mass

Given mass is 68 grams, so no of moles will be,  

68/34 = 2 moles

1 mole comprises 6.022 × 10²³ molecules, therefore, 2 moles will comprise = 6.022 × 10²³ × 2

= 12.044 × 10²³ molecules.

Which of the following polyatomic ions will form an ionic compound with two sodium ions? CO32− HCO31− NO21− NO31−
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

CO32−

Explanation:

We have to consider the valencies of the polyatomic ions involved. Recall that it is only a polyatomic ion with a valency of -2 that can form a compound which requires two sodium ions.

When we look closely at the options, we will realize that among all the options, only CO32− has a valency of -2, hence it must be the required answer. In order to be double sure, we put down the ionic reaction equation as follows;

2Na^+(aq) + CO3^2-(aq) ---------> Na2CO3(aq)

Molar mass in sulfuric acid
EleoNora [17]

Hey there!

Sulfuric acid: H₂SO₄

H: 2 x 1.008 = 2.016

S: 1 x 32.065 = 32.065

O: 4 x 16 = 64

--------------------------------

                 98.081 g/mol

The molar mass of sulfuric acid is 98.081 g/mol.

Hope this helps!
