Two elements next to each other that have decreasing atomic masses

Chemistry
1 answer:
pogonyaev2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • <u>Tellurium (Te) and iodine (I) are two elements </u><em><u>next to each other that have decreasing atomic masses.</u></em>

Explanation:

The <em>atomic mass</em> of tellurium (Te) is 127.60 g/mol and the atomic mass of iodine (I) is 126.904 g/mol; so, in spite of iodine being to the right of tellurium in the periodic table (because the atomic number of iodine is bigger than the atomic number of tellurium), the atomic mass of iodine is less than the atomic mass of tellurium.

The elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number in the periodic table.

The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons.

The mass number, except for the mass defect, represents the atomic mass of a particular isotope. But the atomic mass of an element is the weighted average of the atomic masses of the different natural isotopes of the element.

Normally, as the atomic number increases, you find that the atomic mass increases, so most of the elements in the periodic table, which as said are arranged in icreasing atomic number order, match with increasing atomic masses. But the relative isotope abundaces of the elements can change that.

It is the case that the most common isotopes of tellurium have atomic masses 128 amu and 130 amu, whilst most common isotopes of iodine have an atomic mass 127 amu. As result, tellurium has an average atomic mass of 127.60 g/mol  whilst iodine has an average atomic mass of 126.904 g/mol.

A vacuum gage connected to a chamber reads 35 kpa at a location where the atmospheric pressure is 92 kpa. determine the absolute
stealth61 [152]

Vacuum gage connected to a chamber reads 35 kpa at a location where the atmospheric pressure is 92 kpa then the  absolute pressure in the chamber and express is 57kpa

Gauge pressure is the pressure relative to atmospheric pressure. Gauge pressure is positive for pressures above atmospheric pressure, and negative for pressures and absolute pressure is the sum of gauge pressure and atmospheric pressure

Here to find absolute pressure atmospheric pressure=92kpa and  vacuum gage=35 kpa                                      

Pabsolute pressure=Patmospehric pressure - Pvaccume

92-35=57kpa

When sodium peroxide is added to water, sodium hydroxide and oxygen gas is produced.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The reaction combines the sodium with the hydrogen and oxygen in water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, and you get a lot of energy released as heat as well. This heat actually melts any remaining sodium that has not reacted yet, and ignites the hydrogen gas, so you get the bang and the flash.

How do the bonds differ in<br> each type?
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Bonds basically differs with each other due to sharing of electrons .

Explanation:

There are majorly three kinds of bonds

1. Ionic bonds which forms due to an element donate an electron to another element completely .

2. covalent bonds which forms with the mutual sharing of electrons b/w two atoms .

3. metallic bonds which forms b/w metals & they share electrons due to electron negativity difference b/w two atoms or elements

The standard cell potential Ec for the reduction of silver ions with elemental copper is 0.46V at 25 degrees celsius. calculate
Cloud [144]

Answer : The \Delta G for this reaction is, -88780 J/mole.

Solution :

The balanced cell reaction will be,  

Cu(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(s)

Here, magnesium (Cu) undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. silver (Ag) undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

The half oxidation-reduction reaction will be :

Oxidation : Cu\rightarrow Cu^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction : 2Ag^++2e^-\rightarrow 2Ag

Now we have to calculate the Gibbs free energy.

Formula used :

\Delta G^o=-nFE^o

where,

\Delta G^o = Gibbs free energy = ?

n = number of electrons to balance the reaction = 2

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C/mole

E^o = standard e.m.f of cell = 0.46 V

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the Gibbs free energy.

\Delta G^o=-(2\times 96500\times 0.46)=-88780J/mole

Therefore, the \Delta G for this reaction is, -88780 J/mole.
