Which factor would be most likely to shrink the size of an atom’s electron cloud?

A sample of gaseous neon atoms at atmospheric pressure and 0 °c contains 2.69 * 1022 atoms per liter. the atomic radius of neon

omeli [17]

Explanation

Radius of neon atom : 69 pm = $69\times 10^{-12} m$

Volume occupied by the one atom: $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times(69\times 10^{-12} m)^3=1.37\times 10^{-30} m^3$

given that $2.69\times 10^{22}$ atoms are present in 1L

1 L = 0.001 $m^3$

The volume occupied by the $2.69\times 10^{22}$ neon atoms

$2.69\times 10^{22}\times 1.37\times 10^{-30} m^3=3.68\times 10^{-8} m^3$

Fraction of volume occupied by the neon atom:

$=\frac{3.68\times 10^{-8} m^3}{0.001 m^3}=3.68\times 10^{-11} m^3$

$3.68\times 10^{-11} m^3$

The fraction of of volume occupied by the neon atom is very less than the 1 L which indicates the presence of large amount of empty space between the atoms of the gas.

What is the ending of the electron configuration of each element in group 4?

bogdanovich [222]

because p6 will be the group 8. You have to count the 2 electrons from the "s" block that are Group I and Group II Group I s1 Group II s2 Group III s2 p1 Group IV s2 p2 Group V s2 p3 Group VI s2 p4 Group VII s2 p5 Group VIII s2 p6

A marble is L 1.32 W 1.32 H 1.32, what is the volume? Show your work

cupoosta [38]

The volume of the marble is 2.3 cube units.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Length (L) = 1.32

Width (W) = 1.32

Height (H) = 1.32

Volume (V) =?

The volume of the marble can be obtained as follow:

V = L × W × H

V = 1.32 × 1.32 × 1.32

V = 2.3 cube units

Thus, the volume of the marble is 2.3 cube units.

Explain how the Law of Conservation of Mass is demonstrated In photosynthesis and cellular Respiration chemical equations. (Less

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, In a chemical reaction, mass is neither created nor destroyed. In other words, the total mass for the reactants needs to equal the total mass of the products.
In photosynthesis the reactants are 6 carbon dioxide, 6 water and sunlight. The mass of these reactants adds to equal the mass of the products, which are 1 glucose and 6 oxygen.
Cellular respiration on the other hand uses glucose and oxygen gas to produce water, carbon dioxide, and a usable form of energy known as ATP.
Cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis, such that the products of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration also obeys the law of conservation of mass.

Which balanced equation represents a redox reaction? a. AgNO3(aq) +NaCl(aq) →AgCl(s) +NaNO3(aq) b. H2CO3(aq) →H2O() + CO2(g) c.

Aleks [24]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) $Mg(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow MgCl_2(s)+H_2(g)$

Explanation :

(A) $AgNO_3(aq)+NaCl(aq)\rightarrow AgCl(s)+NaNO_3(aq)$

This reaction is a double displacement reaction in which the cation and anion of two reactants are exchange their places to give two different products.

(B) $H_2CO_3(aq)\rightarrow H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)$

This reaction is a decomposition reaction in which the larger molecule decomposes to give two or more products.

(C) $NaOH(aq)+HCl(aq)\rightarrow NaCl(s)+H_2O(aq)$

This reaction is a neutralization reaction in which an acid and a base react to give a salt and water as a product.

(D) $Mg(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow MgCl_2(s)+H_2(g)$

This reaction is a redox reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this oxidation state increases.

Reduction reaction is the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this oxidation state decreases.

In this reaction, magnesium shows oxidation due to change in oxidation number from (0) to (+2) and hydrogen shows reduction due to change in oxidation number from (-1) to (0).

Hence, the correct option is, (D)
