The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior. All the members of a family of elements have thesame number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties

What is the theoretical yield of vanadium, in moles, that can be produced by the reaction of 1.0 mole of V2O5 with 4.0 mole of c

yuradex [85]

Answer:

Theoretical moles of V are 1.6 moles

Explanation:

The theoretical yield of a reaction is defined as the amount of product you would make if all of the limiting reactant was converted into product.

In the reaction:

V2O5(s) + 5Ca(i) → 2V(i) + 5CaO(s)

Based on the reaction, 1 mol of V2O5 needs 5 moles of Ca for a complete reaction. As there are just 4 moles, limiting reactant is Ca. As there are produced 2 moles of V per 5mol of Ca, Theoretical moles of V are:

4 moles of Ca × (2mol V / 5Ca) = 1.6 moles of V

I hope it helps!

The modern view of an electron orbital in an atom can best be described as

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

An orbital is a region in space where there is a high probability of finding an electron.

Explanation:

The orbital is a concept that developed in quantum mechanics. Recall that Neils Bohr postulated that the electron occupied stationary states which he called energy levels. Electrons emit radiation when the move from a higher to a lower energy level. Similarly, energy is absorbed by an electron to move from a lower to a higher orbit.

This idea was upturned by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. This principle state that the momentum and position of a particle can not be simultaneously measured with precision.

Instead of defining a 'fixed position' for the electron, we define a region in space where there is a possibility of finding an electron with a certain amount of energy. This orbital is identified by a set of quantum numbers.

The molar mass of NH3 is 17.03 g/mol. The molar mass of H2 is 2.0158 g/mol. In a particular reaction, 0.575 g of NH3 forms. What

Arlecino [84]

The balanced chemical reaction is:

N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3

We are given the amount of ammonia formed from the reaction. This is where we start our calculations.

0.575 g NH3 (1 mol NH3 / 17.03 g NH3) (3 mol H2 / 2 mol NH3) ( 2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2) = 0.10 g H2

How many grams of helium must be released to reduce the pressure to 65 atmatm assuming ideal gas behavior? Express the answer in

lyudmila [28]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

How many grams of helium must be released to reduce the pressure to 65 atm assuming ideal gas behavior. Note : 334-mL cylinder for use in chemistry lectures contains 5.209 g of helium at 23°C.

Answer: The mass of helium released is 1.6 grams

Explanation:

We are given:

Mass of helium in the cylinder = 5.209 g

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

Or,

$PV=\frac{w}{M}RT$

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = 65 atm

V = Volume of the gas = 334 mL = 0.334 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

w = Weight of the gas = ?

M = Molar mass of helium gas = 4 g/mol

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = Temperature of the gas = $23^oC=[23+273]K=296K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$65atm\times 0.334L=\frac{w}{4g/mol}\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 296K\\\\w=\frac{65\times 0.334\times 4}{0.0821\times 296}=3.573g$

Mass of helium released = (5.209 - 3.573) g = 1.636 g = 1.6 g

Hence, the mass of helium released is 1.6 grams
