Explain in terns of atomic structure why barium has a lower first ionization energy than magnesium.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sonja [21]3 years ago

Answer:

Barium has a greater radius than magnesium

Explanation:

Barium and magnesium are two elements which belong to the same group, group 2A. This means that the two elements have two valence electrons in their outer shell.

The difference is, however, since barium is lower in group than magnesium, it has more electron shells than magnesium and, therefore, its radius is greater. The attraction force between the nucleus and the valence electrons in barium is lower as a result, as force is inversely proportional to distance. Hence, a lower amount of energy is required to remove the valence electrons from barium.

If you wish to prepare a 1.13 M solution of NaNo3, to what volume (in liters) would you have to dilute 25.4 mL of 3.21 M NaNO3?​
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Answer is 72.15 or 0.07215

Explanation:

Given,

Initial molarity M1 = 3.21M

Initial volume V1 = 25.4mL

Final molarity of M2 = 1.13 M

Final volume V2 = ?

M1×V1=M2×V2

M1×V1/M2=V2

3.21M×25.4/1.13=V2

V2=72.15 mL. 1 mL=0.001 L

V2= 0.07215

How many moles of Manganese there in are 5.76 x 10(15) atoms of Mn?
aksik [14]

Answer:

1. 9.57 × 10^-9 moles.

2. 7.38mol

Explanation:

1.) To find the number of moles there are in the number of particles in an atom, we divide the number of particles (nA) by Avagadro's constant (6.02 × 10^23)

Hence, to find the number of moles (n) of Manganese (Mn), we say:

5.76 x 10^15 atoms ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

5.76/6.02 × 10^(15-23)

= 0.957 × 10^-8

= 9.57 × 10^-9 moles.

2.) Mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of sodium chloride (NaCl) = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5g/mol

mole = 431.6 g ÷ 58.5g/mol

mole = 7.38mol
