Answer:

Electrons are far apart from the nucleus as we move down the group.

Explanation:

The ionization energy is the amount of energy which is necessary to remove an electron from an atom.

In an atom there exist a force of attraction at the center (nucleus). This is because of the positive charge which exists in the nucleus. This force of attraction is less felt as the distance between the electron and the proton increases. Hence the ionization energy increases as the number of shells increases for an atom. As we move down the group in the periodic table, the number of shells increases which implies a decrease in ionization energy.

zavuch27 [327]

The tool or instrument which is used to measure an object’s mass is electronic balance

Mass is a fundamental quantity

<h3>What is fundamental quantities?</h3>

Fundamental quantities can be defined as those physical quantities which forms the basic unit of measurement. They are the quantities upon which other quantities and units are derived from.

Mass is measured in kilograms (kg)

Other examples of fundamental quantities apart from mass are as follows:

  • Length
  • Time
  • Amount of substances
  • Luminous intensity
  • Temperature
  • Magnetic flux

So therefore, the tool or instrument which is used to measure an object’s mass is electronic balance

Which element from this portion of the table chemically reacts in a way similar to the way the element chlorine (Cl) reacts? (1)
mina [271]
D. I or Iodine

This is because they are both in the same periodic family (the halogens) and thus the number of valence electrons are the same

How do u find ratios of unknown value
LenaWriter [7]
The simplest ratios compare only two values, but ratios comparing three or more values are also possible. In any situations in which two or more distinct numbers or quantities are being compared, ratios are applicable. By describing quantities in relation to each other, they explain how chemical formulas can be duplicated or recipes in the kitchen expanded.

Determine the empirical and molecular formula:
Bingel [31]

Answer:

The empirical formula = molecular formula = C13H18O2

Explanation:

in 100% compound we have 75.6 % Carbon ( Molar mass = 12g/mole), 8.80% hydrogen ( Molar mass = 1.01 g/mole) and 15.5% Oxygen (Molar mass = 16.01 g/mole).

Carbon: 75.6g / 12 = 6.29

Hydrogen: 8.80/ 1 = 8.80

Oxygen: 15.5/ 16 = 0.97

⇒0.97 is the smallest so we divide everything through by 0.97

C: 6.29 / 0.97 =  6.48 ≈ 6.5

H: 8.80 /0.97 = 9

O: 0.97 / 0.97 = 1

To get rid of decimals, we multiply by 2  

C: 6.5 x 2 = 13

H: 9 x 2 = 18

O: 1 x 2 = 2

The empirical formula = C13H18O2

13x 12g/mol + 18x1g/mol  + 2x 16g/mol = 156 + 18 + 32 = 206g/mol  which is the molar mass of ibuprofen

The empirical formula = molecular formula = C13H18O2
