Answer:
- <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>
Explanation:
Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.
Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:
- Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.
- Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.
Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:
- Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.
- Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.
So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:
- O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.
Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.
Answer:
16mL
Explanation:
Using the following formula;
CaVa = CbVb
Where;
Where
Ca = concentration/molarity of acid (M)
Va = volume of acid (mL)
Cb = concentration/molarity of base (M)
Vb = volume of base (mL)
According to the information provided in this question;
Ca (HCl) = 2M
Cb (NaOH) = 5M
Va (HCl) = 40mL
Vb (NaOH) = ?
Using CaVa = CbVb
Vb = CaVa/Cb
Vb = 2 × 40/5
Vb = 80/5
Vb = 16mL
For this problem, we use the Beer Lambert's Law. Its usual equation is:
A = ∈LC
where
A is the absorbance
∈ is the molar absorptivity
L is the path length
C is the concentration of the sample solution
As you notice, we only have to find the absorbance. But since we are not given with the molar absorptivity, we will have to use the modified equation that relates % transmittance to absorbance:
A = 2 - log(%T)
A = 2 - log(27.3)
A = 0.5638
Answer:
placing the reactants on a hot plate
Explanation:
If the temperature goes up, the reaction rate will increase. Because the particle will move faster and makes the kinetic energy larger.
