Does anyone know the properties of group 1 on the periodic table?

1 answer:

3 0

The alkali metals make up Group 1 of the periodic table. This family consists of the elements lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, and Fr, respectively). Group one elements share common characteristics. They are all soft, silver metals. Due to their low ionization energy, these metals have low melting points and are highly reactive. The reactivity of this family increases as you move down the table. Alkali metals are noted for how vigorously they react with water. Due to this, they are often stored in mineral oil and are not found in their elemental forms in nature. These characteristics can be explained by examining the electronic structure of each element in this group. Alkali metals have one valence electron. They readily give up this electron to assume the noble gas configuration as a cation. This makes the elements in this group highly reactive.hope this helps you ok.

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bond(s) in 1 mole of CH₄ molecules is:_____ **Any help would be greatly appreciated!**

frozen [14]

Answer:

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH is 1644 kJ

Explanation:

Since there are 4 C-H bonds in CH₄, the bond dissociation energy of 1 mol of CH₄ is 4 × bond dissociation energy of one C-H bond.

From the table one mole is C-H bond requires 411 kJ, that is 411 kJ/mol. Therefore, 4 C-H bonds would require 4 × 411 kJ = 1644 kJ

So, the bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH₄ is 1644 kJ

Explain Charles law

kodGreya [7K]

"Charles Law" is the relationship between "volume-temperature" (V ∝ T).

<u>Explanation</u>:

Charles Law is basically volume-temperature relationship (V ∝ T). French scientist “Jacques Charles” in 1787 studied effect of temperature on the volume of gases at constant pressure, which described how gases manage to expand when heated. Law stated as “At constant pressure, the volume of a given "mass" of a gas decreases or increases by 1/273 of its volume at $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ for each one degree rise or fall in temperature”. Formula derived from law is as follows: $\mathbf{V}_{\mathbf{t}}=\mathbf{V}_{0}[\mathbf{1}+\mathbf{t} / \mathbf{2} 7 \mathbf{3}]$ here ${V}_{0}$ is volume of given mass of a gas at $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ , ${V}_{t}$ is its volume at any temperature $t^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ . Application of Charles law is hot air balloons.
