Which of the following elements has the smallest atomic radius

Chemistry
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Element with the smallest radius is Carbon.

Explanation:

In a periodic table, atomic radius increases down the group due to addition of a new shell and decreases across the period from left to right due to increasing nuclear charge.

Due to addition of more electrons in same shell and increase of positive charge in nucleus increases attractive forces between electrons and nucleus hence decreasing size.

Carbon and Lithium are present in same period and hence Carbon has smaller size; Potassium and Bromine are present in same period and hence out of the two, Bromine has smaller size.

On comparing Carbon and Bromine, atomic radius increases down the group hence, Carbon has the smallest radius among the four given elements.

A ball is thrown in the air. The ball goes up, then changes direction and falls down. Why does the ball fall down?
Delicious77 [7]

So the acceleration has actually slowed down the ball because it was going in the direction opposite the velocity. Now see what happens as the ball falls back down to Earth. The ball has zero velocity, but the acceleration due to gravity accelerates the ball downward at a rate of –9.8 m/s2.

A solution was prepared by dissolving 0.800 g of sulfur S8, in 100.0 g of acetic acid, HC2H3O2. Calculate the freezing point and
Romashka [77]

<u>Answer:</u> The freezing point of solution is 16.5°C and the boiling point of solution is 118.2°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

Molality=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ in grams}}

Where,

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (S_8) = 0.800 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (S-8) = 256.52 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent (acetic acid) = 100.0 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molality of solution}=\frac{0.800\times 1000}{256.52\times 100.0}\\\\\text{Molality of solution}=0.0312m

  • <u>Calculation for freezing point of solution:</u>

Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of water and freezing point of solution.

\Delta T_f=\text{freezing point of acetic acid}-\text{Freezing point of solution}

To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_f=iK_fm

or,

\text{Freezing point of acetic acid}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=iK_fm

where,

Freezing point of acetic acid = 16.6°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

K_f = molal freezing point depression constant = 3.59°C/m

m = molality of solution = 0.0312 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

16.6^oC-\text{freezing point of solution}=1\times 3.59^oC/m\times 0.0312m\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=16.5^oC

Hence, the freezing point of solution is 16.5°C

  • <u>Calculation for boiling point of solution:</u>

Elevation in boiling point is defined as the difference in the boiling point of solution and freezing point of pure solution.

The equation used to calculate elevation in boiling point follows:

\Delta T_b=\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of acetic acid}

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_b=iK_bm

or,

\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of acetic acid}=iK_fm

where,

Boiling point of acetic acid = 118.1°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

K_f = molal boiling point elevation constant = 3.08°C/m

m = molality of solution = 0.0312 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Boiling point of solution}-118.1^oC=1\times 3.08^oC/m\times 0.0312m\\\\\text{Boiling point of solution}=118.2^oC

Hence, the boiling point of solution is 118.2°C

Solution A is 0.44 M and reacts with 0.11 M of solution B. Assume that the value of x is 0, the value of y is 1, and r is 1.07 ×
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

K, the rate constant = 9.73 × 10^(-1)/s

Explanation:

r = K × [A]^x × [B]^y

r = Rate = 1.07 × 10^(-1)/s

K = Rate constant

A and B = Concentration in mol/dm^-3

A = 0.44M

B = 0.11M

x = Order of reaction with respect to A = 0

y = Order of reaction with respect to B = 1

Solving, we get

r/([A]^x × [B]^y) = K

K = 1.07 × 10^(-1)/s/(0.44^0 × 0.11^1)= 0.9727

K = 0.9727

If 16.9 kg of Al2O3(s), 57.4 kg of NaOH(l), and 57.4 kg of HF(g) react completely, how many kilograms of cryolite will be produc
hodyreva [135]

Answer: 69.72 kg of cryolite will be produced.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

Al_2O_3(s)+6NaOH(l)+12HF(g)\rightarrow 2Na_3AlF_6+9H_2O

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

moles of Al_2O_3 = \frac{16.9\times 1000g}{102g/mol}=165.7moles

moles of NaOH = \frac{57.4\times 1000g}{40g/mol}=1435moles

moles of HF = \frac{57.4\times 1000g}{20g/mol}=2870moles

As 1 mole of Al_2O_3 reacts with 6 moles of NaOH

166 moles of  Al_2O_3 reacts with = \frac{6}{1}\times 166=996 moles of NaOH

As 1 mole of Al_2O_3 reacts with 12 moles of HF

166 moles of  Al_2O_3 reacts with = \frac{12}{1}\times 166=1992 moles of HF

Thus Al_2O_3 is the limiting reagent.

As 1 mole of Al_2O_3 produces = 2 moles of cryolite

166 moles of  Al_2O_3 reacts with = \frac{2}{1}\times 166=332 moles of cryolite

Mass of cryolite (Na_3AlF_6) = moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=332mol\times 210g/mol=69720g=69.72kg

Thus 69.72 kg of cryolite will be produced.
