Write an equation that shows the formation of a selenide ion from a neutral selenium atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
Georgia [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Se + 2e- => Se-2

Explanation:

Ions are electrically charged particles, formed due to the gain or loss of electrons by an atom.

There are two types of ions cations and anions. An element that loses their electrons and forms positive ions are cations while metals and element that gains one or more electrons and forms negative ions are anions.

Selenium is an atom with atomic number 34 and represented as Se. The electronic configuration of Se is  1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p4. Selenium will gain 2 more electrons to complete it p orbital and form an ion Se-2.

The equation is as below:

Se + 2e- => Se-2

Answer:

<u><em>The correct answer is:</em></u>

<h3><u><em>Option D: Evapotranspiration  </em></u></h3>

<u><em>Water is removed both from the plants and the soil. Evapotranspiration is a process by which the water is removed from plants and ground and is added back into the atmosphere. From ground, water is removed in the form of evaporation from the soil. And from plants the water is removed by transpiration. Hence the term Evapotranspiration.</em></u>

The rate law for the reaction
juin [17]

Explanation:

Since, the given reaction is as follows.

              2NO(g) + Cl_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2NOCl(g)

Hence, rate law of the reaction is as follows.

               R = k[NO][Cl_{2}]

As it is known that rate of a reaction depends on the initial concentration of products. So here, the rate of reaction will depend on the concentration of NO and Cl_{2}. Since, power of the concentrations of each of these is equal to 1. Therefore, order of the reaction is equal to 1 + 1 = 2.

According to the rate law, reactants involved in the rate determining step are NO and Cl_{2}. Hence, first step of the mechanism is the rate determining step.

Also, according to the rate of reaction doubling the concentration of NO will double the rate of reaction.

The number of reactants taking part in a single step of the reaction is known as molecularity of the reaction. Therefore, molecularity of the first step of the reaction is 2.

Both the given steps are not termolecular.

How to separate water from a mixture of rice and peas? Please
svp [43]
Depending on the type of pea, the peas should come to the top as they are lighter and larger. Then just scoop or brush them off into another container. If you separate it into smaller batches and work them one by one, you should then find you get pure rice batches left which you can put in their own container.
