The order of the first ionization energy of the given elements from highest to lowest is \boxed{{\mathbf{Kr > Br > Se > Ge > Ca > K}}}

Further Explanation:

The energy that is needed to remove the most loosely bound valence electrons from the isolated neutral atom of the gas is known as the ionization energy. It is denoted by IE. The value of IE is related to the ease of removing the outermost valence electrons. If these electrons are removed so easily, small ionization energy is required and vice-versa. It is inversely proportional to the size of the atom.

Ionization energy is further represented as first ionization, second ionization and so on. When the first electron is removed from a neutral, isolated gaseous atom, the energy needed for the purpose is known as the first ionization energy, written as {\text{I}}{{\text{E}}_1} . Similarly, when the second electron is removed from the positively charged species (cation), the ionization energy is called the second ionization energy \left( {{\text{I}}{{\text{E}}_2}} \right) and so on.

Potassium, calcium, germanium, selenium, bromine, and krypton belong to the same period of the periodic table.

Along a period, the atomic number increases but the number of shells remains the same while moving from left to right.

The number of protons, as well as the electrons, increases with the increase in the atomic number but the extra electrons are added in the same shell. Due to the high positive nuclear charge, the effective nuclear charge also increases. This results in an increase in the first ionization energy. So krypton will have the highest first ionization energy, followed by bromine, selenium, germanium, calcium, and potassium will have the lowest ionization energy.

Consider this equilibrium reaction between carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas, occurring in a sealed flexible container. CO(g) + 3
wariber [46]

Answer:

More H2(g) is added to the container : <u>Towards products.</u>

CO is removed from the container : <u>Towards reactants.</u>

More CH4(g) is added to the container : <u>Towards reactants</u>

H2O(g) is removed from the container <u>: Towards products.</u>

The contents of the container are heated up. :<u> Towards the reactants.</u>

The contents of the container are cooled down : <u>Towards the products.</u>

The pressure inside the container is increased. :<u>Towards the products</u>

The container is stretched to increase the volume: <u>Towards the reactants.</u>

Explanation: :

CO(g) + 3 H2g) → CH4(g) + H2O(g)+ heat

There is released heat, so this reaction is exothermic

If the H2 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase.<u> Towards products.</u>

If the CO is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. <u>Towards reactants.</u>

If the CH4 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase. <u>Towards reactants</u>

If the H2O is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. <u>Towards products.</u>

If the temperature is increased, the system will reduce the amount of heat released. So the balance will shift to the left. <u>Towards the reactants.</u>

This because the extra heat / energy must be used.

If the temperature is decreased, the system will produce more heat  So the balance will shift to the right. <u>Towards the products.</u>

This because more heat /energy needs to be produced to make up for the loss of heat (energy).

If the pressure is increased, the system will shift to the side with fewer moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right.  So the balance will shift to the right. <u>Towards the products.</u> An increase of pressure has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the volume.

If the volume is increased, this means the pressure is decreased, the system will shift to the side with most moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right.  So the balance will shift to the left. <u>Towards the reactants.</u> An increase of volume has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the pressure.

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

In the previous section, we discussed the relationship between the bulk mass of a substance and the number of atoms or molecules it contains (moles). Given the chemical formula of the substance, we were able to determine the amount of the substance (moles) from its mass, and vice versa. But what if the chemical formula of a substance is unknown? In this section, we will explore how to apply these very same principles in order to derive the chemical formulas of unknown substances from experimental mass measurements.

Explanation:

tally. The results of these measurements permit the calculation of the compound’s percent composition, defined as the percentage by mass of each element in the compound. For example, consider a gaseous compound composed solely of carbon and hydrogen. The percent composition of this compound could be represented as follows:

\displaystyle \%\text{H}=\frac{\text{mass H}}{\text{mass compound}}\times 100\%%H=

mass compound

mass H

×100%

\displaystyle \%\text{C}=\frac{\text{mass C}}{\text{mass compound}}\times 100\%%C=

mass compound

mass C

×100%

If analysis of a 10.0-g sample of this gas showed it to contain 2.5 g H and 7.5 g C, the percent composition would be calculated to be 25% H and 75% C:

\displaystyle \%\text{H}=\frac{2.5\text{g H}}{10.0\text{g compound}}\times 100\%=25\%%H=

10.0g compound

2.5g H

×100%=25%

\displaystyle \%\text{C}=\frac{7.5\text{g C}}{10.0\text{g compound}}\times 100\%=75\%%C=

10.0g compound

7.5g C

×100%=75%
