Explanation:

Atomic size is defined as the distance between the nucleus and valence shell of an atom. Valence shell is the outermost shell of an atom.

When we move across a period in a periodic table then there will occur a decrease in atomic size of the atoms. But when we move across a group in a periodic table then there will occur an increase in atomic size of the atom.

Hydrogen is a period 1 element, oxygen is a period 2 element, chlorine is a period 3 element and bromine is a period 4 element.

Therefore, given elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic size as follows.

                             H < O < Cl < Br

Determine the theoretical yield of HCl if 60.0 g of BC13 and 37.5 g of H20 are reacted according to the following balanced react
Pie

Answer : The theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

Explanation : Given,

Mass of BCl_3 = 60 g

Mass of H_2O = 37.5 g

Molar mass of BCl_3 = 117 g/mole

Molar mass of H_2O = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of HCl = 36.5 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of BCl_3 and H_2O.

\text{Moles of }BCl_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }BCl_3}{\text{Molar mass of }BCl_3}=\frac{60g}{117g/mole}=0.513moles

\text{Moles of }H_2O=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2O}{\text{Molar mass of }H_2O}=\frac{37.5g}{18g/mole}=2.083moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

BCl_3(g)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3BO_3(s)+3HCl(g)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of BCl_3 react with 3 mole of H_2O

So, 0.513 moles of BCl_3 react with 3\times 0.513=1.539 moles of H_2O

From this we conclude that, H_2O is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and BCl_3 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of HCl.

As, 1 mole of BCl_3 react to give 3 moles of HCl

So, 0.513 moles of BCl_3 react to give 3\times 0.513=1.539 moles of HCl

Now we have to calculate the mass of HCl.

\text{Mass of }HCl=\text{Moles of }HCl\times \text{Molar mass of }HCl

\text{Mass of }HCl=(1.539mole)\times (36.5g/mole)=56.1735g

Therefore, the theoretical yield of HCl is, 56.1735 grams

What do cations and anions form?
melomori [17]

Answer: Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the positives and negatives brings the particles together and creates an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride.

Suppose of hcl and of o2 are added to an empty flask. How much will be in the flask at equilibrium?A. None. B. Some, but less th
serg [7]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Hydrogen chloride and oxygen react to form water and chlorine, like this:

4HCI(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+2CI_2(g)

Use this chemical equation to answer the questions in the table below.

Suppose 155. mmol of HCl and 38.8 mmol of O₂ are added to an empty flask. How much HCl will be in the flask at equilibrium?

(1) None.

(2) Some, but less than 155. mmol,

(3) 155. mmol,

(4) More than 155. mmol,

Answer : The correct option is, (1) None

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is:

4HCI(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+2CI_2(g)

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 4 mmole of HCl react with 1 mmoles of O_2

So, 155. mmole of HCl react with \frac{155.}{4}\times 1=38.75 mmoles of O_2

That means, O_2 is excess reagent and HCl is a limiting reagent. All the moles of HCl will consume.

Hence, the correct option is, None.

Mrs. Huang operates a soybean farm. She buys many supplies in bulk. Often the bulk products need to be custom mixed before Mrs.
fgiga [73]

Answer: 18L

Explanation:

Solving this question would be easier by assigning variables.

so, let x = amount of 67% needed solution

Let y = amount of 42% needed solution.

From the question, we know that

x + y = 42 thus,

y = 42 - x

we also know that the pure herbicide in the 67% solution plus the herbicide I'm the 46% solution must be equal to the amount of pure herbicide in the final solution. Thus mathematically, we have

0.67x + 0.46y = 0.55*42

0.67x + 0.46y = 23.1

Remember, y = 42 - x, substituting this value, we have

0.67x + 0.46(42-x) = 23.1

0.67x + 19.32 - 0.46x = 23.1

0.21x = 23.1 - 19.32

0.21x = 3.78

x = 18

.therefore the amount of 67% solution needed is 18L

Do I use molar mass when the problem gives me grams? (Yes or No), Right answer gets brainliest.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

yes because the molar mass is an intensive property of the substance, that does not depend on the size of the sample. In the International System of Units (SI), the base unit of molar mass is kg/mol. However, for historical reasons, molar masses are almost always expressed in g/mol.
