Answer:

a) Cl, 17 protons and 17 electrons

Explanation:

The elements of group 17 are called halogens. These are six elements Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, Astatine. The atomic number of chlorine is 17. Its means it has 17 protons and 17 electrons.

The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom. Thus the atomic mass of chlorine will be 17+18 = 35 amu

Number protons = 17

Number of electrons = 17

Number of neutrons = 18

Properties of Chlorine:

1. it is greenish-yellow irritating gas.

2. its melting point is 172.2 K

3. its boiling point is 238.6 K

4. it is disinfectant and can kill the bacteria.

5. it is also used in manufacturing of paper, paints and textile industries.

Which type of heat exchanger shell and tube or plate heat exchanger is suitable for evaporation?

klasskru [66]

Answer:

shell and tube type heat exchanger

Explanation:

for evaporation the shell and tube type heat exchanger is best suited.

in the plate heat exchanger there is gaskets in between every part so this part become weak part in heat echanger and there is possibilities of leakage through this part, there is no such problem in shell and tube type.
the plate type cant be used when there is high temperature and high pressure drop but shell and tube type can be used
in evaporation there the liquids change into vapors due to which there is sudden change in pressure and in which plate type is not used because there is chances of leakage

A gaseous mixture composed of 20% CH4, 30% C2H4, 35% C2H2, and 15% C2H20. What is the average molecular weight of the mixture? a

Semenov [28]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option d.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass percentage of $CH_4$ = 20 %

So, mole fraction of $CH_4$ = 0.2

Mass percentage of $C_2H_4$ = 30 %

So, mole fraction of $C_2H_4$ = 0.3

Mass percentage of $C_2H_2$ = 35 %

So, mole fraction of $C_2H_2$ = 0.35

Mass percentage of $C_2H_2O$ = 15 %

So, mole fraction of $C_2H_2O$ = 0.15

We know that:

Molar mass of $CH_4$ = 16 g/mol

Molar mass of $C_2H_4$ = 28 g/mol

Molar mass of $C_2H_2$ = 26 g/mol

Molar mass of $C_2H_2O$ = 48 g/mol

To calculate the average molecular mass of the mixture, we use the equation:

$\text{Average molecular weight of mixture}=\frac{_{i=1}^n\sum{\chi_im_i}}{n_i}$

where,

$\chi_i$ = mole fractions of i-th species

$m_i$ = molar masses of i-th species

$n_i$ = number of observations

Putting values in above equation:

$\text{Average molecular weight}=\frac{(\chi_{CH_4}\times M_{CH_4})+(\chi_{C_2H_4}\times M_{C_2H_4})+(\chi_{C_2H_2}\times M_{C_2H_2})+(\chi_{C_2H_2O}\times M_{C_2H_2O})}{4}$

$\text{Average molecular weight of mixture}=\frac{(0.20\times 16)+(0.30\times 28)+(0.35\times 26)+(0.15\times 42)}{4}\\\\\text{Average molecular weight of mixture}=6.75$

Hence, the correct answer is Option d.

Which metal is more active than H2?<br> (1) Ag (3) Cu<br> (2) Au (4) Pb

astraxan [27]

Answer is (4) - Pb.

According to the reactivity series of elements

- the elements which are above the hydrogen are more reactive than hydrogen.

- the elements which are below the hydrogen are less reactive than hydrogen.

Among the given choices, only Pb is placed above the hydrogen in the reactivity series and rest are below the hydrogen.

Hence, Pb is more active than hydrogen.

Why is it impossible to have an undiscovered element that would fit between sodium and magnesuim

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Sodium has 11 protons and Magnesium has 12. The way that the periodic table is set up doesn't allow for any elements to be in between. The element would have to have 11.5 protons, which is impossible
