Answer:

Since valence shells are mostly empty in nonmetal atoms, the atoms attract and hold any electrons they can in order to fill their valence shells.

A student is titrating 50 mL of 0.32 M NH3 with 0.5 M HCl. How much hydrochloric acid must be added to react completely with the
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The volume of HCl to be added to completely react with the ammonia is 0.032 L or 32mL

Explanation:

Using the formula

Ca Va = Cb Vb

Cb = 0.32 M

Vb = 50 mL = 50/1000 = 0.050L

Ca = 0.5 M

Va =?

Substituting for Va in the equation, we obtain:

Va = Cb Vb / Ca

Va = 0.32 * 0.05 / 0.5

Va = 0.016 / 0.5

Va = 0.032 L

The volume of HCl to be added to completely react with the ammonia is 0.032 L or 32mL

It is observed that the atoms of hydrogen in gas discharge tube emit radiations whose spectrum shows line characteristics (line
azamat

Answer: the line Spectra of hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red of the electro magnetic spectrum

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation spans an wide range of wavelengths and frequencies. This range is called the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is generally divided into seven regions, in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. The 7 regions includes; radio waves, microwaves, infrared (IR), visible light, ultraviolet (UV), X-rays and gamma rays.

lower-energy radiation, such as radio waves, is expressed as frequency while microwaves, infrared, visible and UV light are usually expressed as wavelength and finally, higher-energy radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays, is expressed in terms of energy per photon.

Therefore, hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red region of the electro magnetic spectrum.

Cuando se quema 1 mol de metano –o sea, 16 g–, se desprenden 802
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1 gramo de metano aporta 50.125 kilojoules.

1 gramo de metano aporta 48.246 kilojoules.

Explanation:

La cantidad de energía liberada por la combustión de una unidad de masa del hidrocarburo (Q), en kilojoules por mol, es igual a la cantidad de energía liberada por mol de compuesto (\bar {Q}), en kilojoules por mol, dividido por su masa molar (M), en gramos por mol:

Q = \frac{\bar Q}{M} (1)

A continuación, analizamos cada caso:

Metano

Q = \frac{802\,\frac{kJ}{mol} }{16\,\frac{g}{mol} }

Q = 50.125\,\frac{kJ}{g}

1 gramo de metano aporta 50.125 kilojoules.

Octano

Q = \frac{5500\,\frac{kJ}{mol} }{114\,\frac{g}{mol} }

Q = 48.246\,\frac{kJ}{mol}

1 gramo de metano aporta 48.246 kilojoules.
