Answer:

Detail is given below.

Explanation:

Atomic radius trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons increases. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.

we can see in picture A there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N

In picture D there are 2 positive charge and force of attraction is 4.60×10⁻⁸ N

So by increasing the positive charge force of attraction also increases.

In F we can see there is more positive charge thus force of attraction is also greater.

How many grams of water can be formed when 80 grams of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) reacts with an excess of sulfuric acid, H2SO4, in

podryga [215]

Answer:

36g of H2O.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction:

2NaOH + H2SO4 —> Na2SO4 + 2H2O

Next, we shall determine the mass of NaOH that reacted and the mass of H2O produced from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

Mass of NaOH from the balanced equation = 2 x 40 = 80g

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 2 x 18 = 36g.

From the balanced equation above, we can see evidently that:

80g of NaOH reacted to produce 36g of H2O.

In a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen gases, the mole fraction of nitrogen is 0.333. If the partial pressure of hydrogen in the

notka56 [123]

Answer:

$P_T=112.4torr$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since these problems about gas mixtures are based off Dalton's law in terms of mole fraction, partial pressure and total pressure, we can write the following for hydrogen, we are given its partial pressure:

$P_{H_2}=x_{H_2}*P_T$

And can be solved for the total pressure as follows:

$P_T=\frac{P_{H_2}}{x_{H_2}}$

However, we first calculate the mole fraction of hydrogen by subtracting that of nitrogen to 1 due to:

$x_{H_2}+x_{N_2}=1\\\\x_{H_2}=1-0.333=0.667$

Then, we can plug in to obtain the total pressure:

$P_T=\frac{75.0torr}{0.667}\\\\P_T=112.4torr$

Regards!

How many moles of ammonia (nh3 will be produced from 4.0 moles of nitrogen (n2?

Lana71 [14]

Standard equation would be N2(g)+3H2(g)==>2NH3(g), so through stoichiometry, (4 mol N2)(2mol NH3/1 mol N2), assuming excess H2, would yield 8 moles of NH3.
