Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

Ba is element 56. Its electron configuration is

1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶ 4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶ 5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶ 6s²

That's a lot of writing.

To lessen the work, chemists have developed the noble gas notation.

The core electrons of Ba (listed in boldface) have the same electron configuration as Xe, the noble gas found two atoms earlier in the Periodic Table.

Chemists replace the core electron configuration with the symbol of the corresponding noble gas.

The noble gas notation for Ba becomes

Ba: [Xe]6s².

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 55.0 g sample of water by 65.0 oC.

sveticcg [70]

Answer: 14943.5 J

Explanation:

The quantity of heat energy (Q) required to raise the temperature of a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Given that,

Q = ?

Mass of water = 55.0g

C = 4.18 J/g°C

Φ = 65.0°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 55.0g x 4.18 J/g°C x 65.0°C

Q = 14943.5 J

Thus, 14943.5 joules of heat is needed to raise the temperature of water.

Now examine salts containing the halide anions, cl- and br-. Most of these are soluble. What two cations listed lead to insolubl

tatiyna

Ag+ and Pb+2 are two cations that are suggested as producing insoluble halide salts when studying salts containing the halide anions, cl- and br-. First, the charge's number is provided.

Neutral binary salts, also referred to as halide salts, are mixtures of metals and non-metals. The non-metal behaves in a reduced oxidation state at all times. They are the outcome of mixing a hydroxide and hydracid. halide salts of haloids are produced by the reaction of a hydroxide and a hydracid.

Ions are cations with positive charges. They emerge when the electrons of an elemental metal are lost. However, they don't lose any protons; they only lose one or more electrons. To denote a cation, the charge is superscripted following the element name or chemical formula.

The unknown ionic compound gave a red flame test, NR with ammonium carbonate, and a red/orange halide test. What is the unknown

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, however, the unknown compound can be inferred to be "Lithium Bromide"

Explanation:

The unknown compound firstly is said to be an ionic compound. An ionic/electrovalent compound is a compound in which it's constituent ions transfer/receive electron(s). They are mostly made of group 1 and group 7 elements. Examples include NaCl, NaF, LiF and KCl.

Also, the ion (metallic ion) that produces a red flame test colour in a flame test is the Lithium ion (Li⁺). Also, when dissolved in water or hexane, the only halogen that produces a red/orange colour is bromine. Hence, the unknown ionic compound can be inferred to be Lithium Bromide.

Q26. When added to 20 cm of 0.5 M sulphuric acid, which substance would give a neutral solution?

wariber [46]

Answer:

Adding sodium or potassium hydroxide in amounts sufficient to convert all the H2SO4 into Na2SO4 would approximately neutralize the solution. The error would be the result of the imbalance between the basicity of the hydroxide and the acidity of the bisulfate (HSO4) anion. An adjustment in concentration would have to be made to achieve an accurate approximate pH of 7. But then you didn’t ask how much we would need to add.
