Chemistry
1 answer:
Andreas93 [3]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Isotopes

Explanation:

The atoms of a chemical element can exist in different types. These are called isotopes. They have the same number of protons (and electrons), but different numbers of neutrons. Different isotopes of the same element have different masses.

Hope this helps!

A student writes the following explanation of how certain molecules are formed.A process is used to chemically link smaller unit
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

polymerization

Explanation:

Student is explaining the process of formation of a polymer and the process is called polymerization.

Polymer is made up of joining repeating units. The repeating units are called monomers.  

Properties of the polymer is determined by the structure of monomer molecule.

For example, consider a well-known polymer Teflon.is made by the polymerization of tetrafluoroethane.  

Thus, the student is explaining polymerization.

Which of these elements exhibits chemical behavior similar to that of oxygen? select one:
scoray [572]
Answer:
            Sulfur (Option-C) <span>exhibits chemical behavior similar to that of oxygen.

Explanation:
                   Sulfur has same chemical properties as that of Oxygen because both of them belongs to same group in the periodic table. Also, the similarity of chemical behaviour among the group members is due to same number of electrons in their valence shells.
For examole, the electronic configuration of Oxygen is,

                                        1s</span>², 2s², 2p⁴

There are six valence electrons in the valence shell (i.e. 2) of Oxygen.

Now for Sulfur,
                                        1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁴

There are six valence electrons in the valence shell (i.e. 3) of Sulfur.

Therefore, both elements tends to gain 2 electrons in a reaction and form O⁻² and S⁻² respectively.

13. How many electrons are transferred in the following reaction? (The reaction is unbalanced.) Fe(s) + I'(aq) 12(s) + Fe3+(aq)
Nat2105 [25]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 6

Explanation :

Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is a reaction in which oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this oxidation state increases.

Reduction reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this oxidation state decreases.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

Fe(s)+I^-(aq)\rightarrow I_2(s)+Fe^{3+}(aq)

Half reactions of oxidation and reduction are :

Oxidation : Fe(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}+3e^-        ......(1)

Reduction : 2I^-(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow I_2         .......(2)

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, we get:

Oxidation : 2Fe(s)\rightarrow 2Fe^{3+}+6e^-        ......(1)

Reduction : 6I^-(aq)+6e^-\rightarrow 3I_2         .......(2)

The overall balanced chemical reaction will be:

2Fe(s)+6I^-(aq)\rightarrow 3I_2(s)+2Fe^{3+}(aq)

From this reaction we conclude that the electrons are getting transferred from iron to iodine and the number of electrons transferred are 6 electrons.

Hence, the correct option is, (C) 6

A gas at STP occupies 22.4 L if the temperature is changed to 260 K and the pressures changed it to 0.50 ATM what will the new v
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The new volume will be 42, 7 L.

Explanation:

We use the gas formula, which results from the combination of the Boyle, Charles and Gay-Lussac laws. According to which at a constant mass, temperature, pressure and volume vary, keeping constant PV / T. The conditions STP are: 1 atm of pressure and 273 K of temperature.

P1xV1/T1 =P2xV2/T2

1 atmx 22,4 L/273K = 0,5atmx V2/260K

V2=((1 atmx 22,4 L/273K )x 260K)/0,5 atm= 42, 67L
