What's a trend in electron affinity?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elodia [21]3 years ago
3 0

Electron affinity is the change in energy of an atom with a neutral charge when an electron is added to form an anion. A more negative electron affinity corresponds to a greater attraction for an electron. Electron affinity become less negative down a group and from left to right in the periodic table.

What is the balanced form of the following equation?<br> Br2 + S2O32- + H2O → Br1- + SO42- + H+
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

5 Br₂ + S₂O₃²⁻ + 5 H₂O ⇒ 10 Br⁻ + 2 SO₄²⁻ + 10 H⁺

Explanation:

We will balance the redox reaction through the ion-electron method.

Step 1: Identify both half-reactions

Reduction: Br₂ ⇒ Br⁻

Oxidation: S₂O₃²⁻ ⇒ SO₄²⁻

Step 2: Perform the mass balance, adding H⁺ and H₂O where appropriate

Br₂ ⇒ 2 Br⁻

5 H₂O + S₂O₃²⁻ ⇒ 2 SO₄²⁻ + 10 H⁺

Step 3: Perform the charge balance, adding electrons where appropriate

2 e⁻ + Br₂ ⇒ 2 Br⁻

5 H₂O + S₂O₃²⁻ ⇒ 2 SO₄²⁻ + 10 H⁺ + 10 e⁻

Step 4: Make the number of electrons gained and lost equal

5 × (2 e⁻ + Br₂ ⇒ 2 Br⁻)

1 × (5 H₂O + S₂O₃²⁻ ⇒ 2 SO₄²⁻ + 10 H⁺ + 10 e⁻)

Step 5: Add both half-reactions

5 Br₂ + S₂O₃²⁻ + 5 H₂O ⇒ 10 Br⁻ + 2 SO₄²⁻ + 10 H⁺

The molar mass of the compound was found to be 30.069 g/mol. what is the molecular formula? express your answer as a chemical fo
kodGreya [7K]

For us to accurately determine what compound this is, additional info must be given. However I can suggest two compounds which have molecular mass of about 30.07 g/mol.

1. It could be NO or nitric oxide.

The molecular mass is 16 + 14= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.01 g/mol

 

2. It could also be (CH3)2  or ethane.

The molecular mass is 2*12+ 6*1= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.07 g/mol.

 

<span>So we could say it more likely to to be (CH3)2 </span>

How do you convert from atoms to moles
zvonat [6]
To convert from atoms to moles, divide the atom amount by Avogadro's number (or multiply by its reciprocal).

a 5.00 l air sample has a pressure of 107 kpa at a temperature of -50.0 C. if the temperature is raised to 102 C and the volume
Murljashka [212]
You have to use the combined gas law (P₁V₁/T₁=P₂V₂/T₂) and solve for P₂ to get P₂=P₁V₁T₂/T₁V₂.

You need to convert all of the temperature values into terms of Kelvin so -50°C turns into 223K and 102°C turns to 375K.  After you make that conversion you can just plug in all of the values into the idea gas law and you should get P₂=228.5kpa.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
