What are properties of valence?

1 answer:

7 0

Chemical reactions. The number of electrons in an atom's outermost valence shell governs its bonding behavior. Therefore, elements whose atoms can have the same number of valance electrons are grouped together in the periodic table of the elements.

the empirical formula for a compound used as a green paint pigment is C2H3As3Cu2O8. The molar mass of its molecular formula was

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Molecular formula = C₄H₆As₆Cu₄O₁₆

Explanation:

Given data:

Empirical formula = C₂H₃As₃Cu₂O₈

Molar mass of compound = 1013 g/mol

Molecular formula = ?

Solution:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula mass of C₂H₃As₃Cu₂O₈ is 506.897 g/mol

by putting values.

n = 1013 / 506.897

n = 2

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 2 (C₂H₃As₃Cu₂O₈)

Molecular formula = C₄H₆As₆Cu₄O₁₆

4. How can acids and bases behave in terms of electrolytes/reactivity?

icang [17]

Answer:

Strong acids are strong electrolytes. Such acids ionize completely.

Weak acids and bases are weak electrolytes. Such bases and acids ionize only to a small extent.

Explanation:

Electrolytes are the substances that produce ions when they are dissolved in water. Electrolytes can be categorized as bases, acids, and salts.

Strong acids are strong electrolytes. Such acids ionize completely.

Weak acids and bases are weak electrolytes. Such bases and acids ionize only to a small extent.

Ethylene gas and steam at 320°c and atmospheric pressure are fed to a reaction process as an equimolar mixture. the process prod

Reil [10]

The heat transfer formula is;
Q = m * c * Δ T >>>> (1)
where, Q is the heat transfer
m = mass (gram)
c = the specific heat capacity (J/g)
Δ T = change in temperature
∵ we have one mole of Ethanol
∴ the weight of ethanol equals its molecular weight = (2*12)+(6*1)+(16) = 46 g
we will assume that the specific heat capacity of ethanol is 2.46 J/g (from google)
ΔT = 25 - 320 = - 295 C
By substitution in (1)
∴ Q = 2.46 * 46 * (-295) = - 33382.2 J

Directions: Each set of lettered choices below refers to the numbered statements immediately following it. Select the one letter

maksim [4K]

Answer : The only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Explanation :

Disproportionation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction reaction. It is a redox reaction.

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

(A) The given balanced reaction is,

$H_2SeO_4(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2H^+(aq)\rightarrow H_2SeO_3(aq)+Cl_2(g)+H_2O(l)$

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which chlorine shows oxidation and selenium shows reduction.

(B) The given balanced reaction is,

$S_8(s)+8O_2(g)\rightarrow 8SO_2(g)$

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which sulfur shows oxidation and oxygen shows reduction.

(C) The given balanced reaction is,

$3Br_2(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow 5Br^-(aq)+BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)$

This reaction is a disproportionation reaction because in this reaction only one reactant bromine that shows both oxidation and reduction reaction.

(D) The given balanced reaction is,

$Ca^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of calcium and sulfate.

(E) The given balanced reaction is,

$PtCl_4(s)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PtCl_6^{2-}(aq)$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of platinum and chlorine.

Hence, the only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

P4O10(s) = -3110 kJ/mol H2O(l) = -286 kJ/mol H3PO4(s) = -1279 kJ/mol Calculate the change in enthalpy for the following process:

mash [69]

Answer:

-290KJ/mol

Explanation:

ΔHrxn = ΔHproduct - ΔHreactant

ΔHrxn= 4ΔHH3PO4 - {6ΔHH2O + ΔHP4O10}

ΔHrxn = 4(-1279) - [6(-286) - 3110]

= -5116 -(-1716-3110)

= -5116-(-4826)

= -5116 + 4826 = -290KJ/mol
