Noble gases hardly ever participate in chemical reactions because they already have 8 valence electrons and are the most stable among other elements.

Therefore, C. noble gases is the correct answer.

Hope this would help~

Noble Gases because their outer ring of electrons is full. Their full outer ring make it harder for the electrons to pull apart because their charge keeps them closer together.

Nitrogen dioxide gas is dark brown in color and remains in equilibrium with dinitrogen tetroxide gas, which is colorless.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

This reaction is exothermic because the system shifted to the left on heating.

Explanation:

2NO₂ (g) ⇌ N₂O₄(g)

Reactant => NO₂ (dark brown in color)

Product => N₂O₄ (colorless)

From the question given above, we were told that when the reaction at equilibrium was moved from room temperature to a higher temperature, the mixture turned dark brown in color.

This simply means that the reaction does not like heat. Hence the reaction is exothermic reaction.

Also, we can see that when the temperature was increased, the reaction turned dark brown in color indicating that the increase in the temperature favors the backward reaction (i.e the equilibrium shift to the left) as NO₂ which is the reactant is dark brown in color. This again indicates that the reaction is exothermic because an increase in the temperature of an exothermic reaction will shift the equilibrium position to the left.

Therefore, we can conclude that:

The reaction is exothermic because the system shifted to the left on heating.

Group 7A (17) elements can gain one electron to attain a noble gas electron configuration. In combination with metal atoms that
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The two statements are all True for group 7 and 8 elements.

Explanation:

The Group 7 elements are known as the halogens. They are reactive non-metals and are always found in compounds with other elements. Chlorine, bromine and iodine are all halogens.

Chlorine, bromine and iodine are the three common Group 7 elements. Group 7 elements form salts when they react with metals. The term ‘halogen’ means 'salt former'.

In addition to the discription given to norble gases in the question which is true, norble gases;

  •     are inert gases located on the right of the periodic table.
  •     have a full-set of valence electrons, so they're stable, unreactive
  •     are colorless, odorless and tasteless.
  •     have low melting and low boiling points.
  •     can be found in small amounts in the Earth's crust and the Earth's atmosphere.

For each pair, choose the compound with the smaller lattice energy, and explain your choice: (b) K₂O or K₂S.
dlinn [17]

the compound with the smaller lattice energy is potassium sulphide here the size of the molecule play a important role

The quantity of energy released by the electrostatic attraction of oppositely charged ions is known as lattice energy (L.E). The ion's size and charge affect the lattice energy.

lattice energy is inversely proportional to   size of ion and directly proportional to charge of the ion. They are each charged equally that is plus two and minus two However, because the Sulphur is larger in size  and the oxygen is lesser in this case, The lattice energy of potassium oxide is larger  the lattice energy of potassium sulphide  is smaller.
