Wood, Water, and Neon Gas, because the wood is more of a solid its particles are tightly arranged and water next because it takes the shape of the container it is in and then the neon gas because with a gas the particles are not at all arranged

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The correct arrangement of the substances according to the most to the least ordered particle arrangement should be wood, water and neon gas. Wood should be the first since it is solid which has the most ordered structure as compared to the liquid and a gas. The neon gas is the last since as a gas it has the least ordered structure.

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

<u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.

What are the chemical properties of beryllium phosphide??

o-na [289]

Answer:

Forms ionic bonds, insoluble, doesn't participate in single or double displacement reactions, non-reactive, high heat of combustion

Explanation:

Beryllium is a metal, since it belongs to group 2A, the alkaline earth metals. It has a total of 2 valence electrons.

Phosphorus, on the other hand, belongs to group 5A and has a total of 5 valence electrons.

We have a compound which has a metal in it, therefore, it's an ionic compound. Beryllium, our metal, loses its 2 electrons to gain an octet and phosphorus, our nonmetal, should gain 3 electrons to have an octet. The oxidation states are +2 and -3 respectively. This means we need 3 beryllium cations and 2 phosphide anions in our formula $Be_3P_2$ .

Beryllium phosphide would be expected to be insoluble, as only beryllium chloride, fluoride, nitrate, phosphate and sulfate are soluble substances, while the remaining ones are expected to be insoluble.

Due to its insolubility, beryllium phosphide would not participate in any ionic reactions, such as single displacement or double displacement.

Since it's insoluble, we expect this compound to be chemically stable and not reactive. This implies that if we wanted to burn it, the heat of combustion would be very high, as a lot of energy would be needed to be supplied in an endothermic reaction in order to burn it.

If 0.8675 g of KHP requires 24.56 mL of an NaOH solution to reach the equivalence

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

$M_{base}=0.173M$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the titration of acids like KHP with bases like NaOH are performed in a 1:1 mole ratio, it is possible for us to know that their moles are the same at the equivalence point, and the concentration, volume and moles are related as follows:

$n_{acid}=M_{base}V_{base}$

Thus, by solving for the volume of the base as NaOH, we obtain:

$M_{base}=\frac{n_{acid}}{V_{base}} \\\\M_{base}=\frac{0.8675g*\frac{1mol}{204.22g} }{0.02456L} \\\\M_{base}=0.173M$

Best regards!
