Answer:
We could do two 1:50 dilutions and one 1:4 dilutions.
Explanation:
Hi there!
A solution that is 1000 ug/ ml (or 1000 mg / l) is 1000 ppm.
Knowing that 1 ppm = 1000 ppb, 100 ppb is 0.1 ppm.
Then, we have to dilute the stock solution (1000 ppm / 0.1 ppm) 10000 times.
We could do two 1:50 dilutions and one 1:4 dilutions (50 · 50 · 4 = 10000). Since the first dilution is 1:50, you will use the smallest quantity of the stock solution (if we use the 10.00 ml flask):
First step (1:50 dilution):
Take 0.2 ml of the stock solution using the third dispenser (20 - 200 ul), and pour it in the 10.00 ml flask. Fill with water to the mark (concentration : 1000 ppm / 50 = 20 ppm).
Step 2 (1:50 dilution):
Take 0.2 ml of the solution made in step 1 and pour it in another 10.00 ml flask. Fill with water to the mark. Concentration 20 ppm/ 50 = 0.4 ppm)
Step 3 (1:4 dilution):
Take 2.5 ml of the solution made in step 3 (using the first dispenser 1 - 5 ml) and pour it in a 10.00 ml flask. Fill with water to the mark. Concentration 0.4 ppm / 4 = 0.1 ppm = 100 ppb.
Answer:D and C sorry if im wrong
Explanation:
Answer is: a. Rubidium (Rb) is more reactive than strontium (Sr) because strontium atoms must lose more electrons.
The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
Alkaline metals (group 1), in this example rubidium, have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron), they are most reactive metals.
Earth alkaline metals (group 2), in this example strontium, have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons, they are less reactive.
Rubidium electron configuration: ₃₇Rb 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶5s¹; one valence electron is 5s¹ orbital.
Strontium electron configuration: ₃₈Sr 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶5s²; two valence electrons is 5s² orbital.
