Answer:

The second choice: 22 g He will have the greatest volume at STP

Explanation:

Following Avogadro's principle, under ideal condtions, the volume of the gases at the same conditions of temperature, and pressure, is proportional to the number of molecules.

Then, you can calculate the number of molecules for each of the gases to determine which is the sample with the greatest number of molecules and, hence, which will have the greatest volume at STP (standard temperature and pressure).

The formula to calcualte the number of molecules (in moles) is:

n = mass in grams / molar mass

Then, since the mass is the same (22 g) for the four options, the result will be dependent on the molar mass: the gass witht the smallest molar mass will give the largest number of moles for 22 g, and will have the greatest volume.

a) 22 g CO:

Molar mass of CO ≈ 28 g/mol

b) 22 g He:

Molar mass of He ≈ 4.0 g/mol

c) 22 g O₂

Molar mass of O₂ ≈ 32 g/mol

d) 22 g Cl₂

Molar mass of Cl₂ ≈ 71 g/mol

Conclusion: since He has the smallest molar mass, the sample of 22 g of He gas will have the greatest volume at STP.

Which isotope in each pair is more stable? Why?(d) ¹⁴₇N or ¹⁸₇N

quester [9]

¹⁴₇N is the more stable isotope

<h3>Briefly explained</h3>

We have ¹⁴₇N which has a neutron to proton ratio of one, and we look at ¹⁸₇N which has a neutron to proton ratio of 1.57 Again, you look at table 24 to and you see the atomic number of seven and there is really no stable isotope. It has any more than 10 neutrons.

When we have eight, protons will go down seven protons. There's really nothing stable that has more than maybe eight neutrons. So the fact that we have 11 neutrons with ¹⁸₇N suggests that this is very unstable and

¹⁴₇N is the stable isotope of the pair.

<h3>Stable and Unstable Nuclei</h3>

An atom is electrically neutral. It contains an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons and their charges balance. The nucleus however contains only positively charged protons which are closely packed together in a very small volume (remember neutrons have no charge).

From the laws of physics (Coulomb’s Law) one would expect that the protons being of the same charge and so close together would exert strong repulsive forces on each other. The combined gravitational force from the protons and neutrons in a nucleus is insignificant as an attractive force because their masses are so tiny.

This implies there must be an additional attractive force similar in size to the electrostatic repulsion which holds the nucleus together.

The number of kilograms of water in a human body varies directly as the mass of the body. upper a 93-kg person contains 62 kg o

Bad White [126]

Answer;

56 kg of water

Solution;

Weight = 62 kg of water in 93 kg of a person

W=km

62=93k;

k=2/3

W=(2/3)84

=56 kg

Therefore; a 84-kg person will have 56 kg of water.

Use this information to determine the number of valence electrons in the atoms. Which of the following correctly compares the st

vlabodo [156]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The table compares the number of electrons in two unknown neutral atoms.

Comparison of Electrons

Atom Number of Electrons

A 9

D 11

Use this information to determine the number of valence electrons in the atoms. Which of the following correctly compares the stability of the two atoms?

A. Both are unreactive.

B. Both are highly reactive.

C. A is unreactive and D is reactive.

D. A is reactive and D is unreactive.

Answer:

B. Both are highly reactive.

Explanation:

Atomic number of electrons given is 9 and 11, it means that atom A is fluorine (F) and atom D is Sodium (Na).

In order to gain stability 8 electrons are required in outer shell. So atoms either gain or lose electrons in its outer shell to become more reactive.

Sodium has electronic configuration (2,8,1) and easily loses one electron and become (2, 8) which is highly reactive.

Fluorine has electronic configuration (2, 7) and can gain easily an electron and becomes reactive to form (2, 8).

So, both they both attain stability by losing and gaining only one electron.

Hence, they both are highly reactive and the correct option is B.
