The NaCl crystal structure consists of alternating Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions lying next to each other in three dimensions. If the Na⁺ rad

ius is 56.4% of the Cl⁻ radius and the distance between Na⁺ nuclei is 566 pm, what are the radii of the two ions?

Answer : The radii of the two ions Cl⁻ ion and Na⁺ ion is, 181 and 102 pm respectively.

Explanation :

As we are given that the Na⁺ radius is 56.4% of the Cl⁻ radius.

Let us assume that the radius of Cl⁻ be, (x) pm

So, the radius of Na⁺ = x\times \frac{56.4}{100}=(0.564x)pm

In the crystal structure of NaCl, 2 Cl⁻ ions present at the corner and 1 Na⁺ ion present at the edge of lattice.

Thus, the edge length is equal to the sum of 2 radius of Cl⁻ ion and 2 radius of Na⁺ ion.

Given:

Distance between Na⁺ nuclei = 566 pm

Thus, the relation will be:

2\times \text{Radius of }Cl^-+2\times \text{Radius of }Na^+=\text{Distance between }Na^+\text{ nuclei}

2\times x+2\times 0.564x=566

2x+1.128x=566

3.128x=566

x=180.9\approx 181pm

The radius of Cl⁻ ion = (x) pm = 181 pm

The radius of Na⁺ ion = (0.564x) pm = (0.564 × 181) pm =102.084 pm ≈ 102 pm

Thus, the radii of the two ions Cl⁻ ion and Na⁺ ion is, 181 and 102 pm respectively.

Which term represents the fixed proportion of elements in a compound
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Chemical formula.

Explanation:

A chemical formula have fix proportion of atoms of elements.

Chemical formula:

A chemical formula is the way of presenting the chemical proportion of atoms of those elements, that combine to form a compound.

For example:

Water consist of two atom of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. The atoms of both elements combine to form a compound i.e water. The atoms of both elements always combine in a fixed ratio which is 2:1 in molecule of water.

H₂O

2:1

Carbon dioxide consist of two atom of oxygen and one atom of carbon. The atoms of both elements combine to form a compound i.e carbon dioxide. The atoms of both elements always combine in a fixed ratio which is 1:2 in molecule of carbon dioxide .

CO₂

1;2

How can you tell where there is a steep slope on a contour map?
Katena32 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Steep slopes on the contour map are identified using contour lines which are closely spaced.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Contour map also known as topographic maps are used to represent the three-dimensional portion of the earth’s surface in two-dimensional space. This map is used to represent the surface of the land such as steep, slopes, valleys. The contour maps are used in geological studies to understand the configuration of the earth's surface. Terms like map scale, vertical scale, contour lines are used on the contour map. Elevations are represented using contour lines. Contour lines placed very close to each represent the steep slopes and contour lines that are spaced farther away from each other represent the gentle slopes.

What were the constraints on Nils Bohlin’s solution to safer seatbelts?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

He realized he needs to have the upper body and lower body held in place and needed the buckle as far down beside the person's hip so it could hold the body properly

Explanation: ''I realized both the upper and lower body must be held securely in place with one strap across the chest and one across the hips,'' Mr. Bohlin once said. ''The belt also needed an immovable anchorage point for the buckle as far down beside the occupant's hip, so it could hold the body properly during a collision.
