The rate law for the decomposition of phosphine (PH3) is below. It takes 120. s for 1.00 M PH3 to decrease to 0.250 M. How much

time is required for 4.00 M PH3 to decrease to a concentration of 0.320 M?

Answer: 588.8 seconds

Explanation:

1.00 - 0.25 = 0.75M

4.00 - 0.320 = 3.68M

Therefore,

0.75M in 120 seconds

3.68M in x seconds

Cross multiply:

0.75*x = 120*3.68

x = 120*3.68/0.75

x = 588.8 seconds

Which element has this electron configuration? <br> astatine<br> bromine<br> chlorine<br> fluorine
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Unfortunately you did not specify the electronic configuration in the question, however since one of the answers must be a halogen, i took the liberty to attach an image with the configuration (both the simple numeric and spdf form) for all the halogen and all you have to do is match the electronic configuration you have in your question to the one in the table attached and you can then deduce the answer.

Hope this helps.

Why can't methanol, CH3OH, be used as a solvent for sodium amide, NaNH2? Sodium amide is nonpolar and methanol is polar. Sodium
Elodia [21]

Answer: sodium amide undergoes an acid -base reaction

Explanation:

sodium amide is a ionic compound and basically exists as sodium cation and amide anion. Amide anion is highly basic in nature and hence as soon as  there is amide anion generated in the solution , Due to its very pronounced acidity it very quickly abstracts the slightly acidic proton available on methanol.

This leads to formation of ammonia and sodium methoxide.

Hence sodium amide reacts with methanol and abstracts its only acidic proton and form ammonia and sodium Methoxide.

Hence the 3rd statement is a corrects statement.

So we cannot use methanol for sodium amide because sodium amide itself would react with methanol and the inherent molecular natur of sodium amide would then change.

The 1st and 2nd statements both are incorrect because both the compounds methanol as well as sodium amide have dipole moments and hence are polar molecules.

The 4th statement is also incorrect as both the molecules have dipole moment and hence there would be ion-dipole forces operating between them.

The following reaction occurs:

NaNH₂+CH₃OH→NH₃+CH₃ONa

The natural abundances of elements in the human body, expressed as percent by mass, are oxygen (o), 65 percent; carbon (c), 18 p
Vlada [557]

It is given that the person weighs 62 kg = 62,000 g

Natural abundances in mass percent are:

O = 65%

C = 18%

H = 10%

N = 3.0%

Ca = 1.6%

P = 1.2%

Corresponding weights of the elements are:

O = 65/100 * 62000 g = 40.30 * 10^3 g

C = 18/100 * 62000 g = 11.16 * 10^3 g

H = 10/100 * 62000 g = 62.00 * 10^2 g

N = 3.0/100 * 62000 g = 18.60 * 10^2 g

Ca = 1.6/100 * 62000 g = 9.92 * 10^2 g

P = 1.2/100 * 62000 g = 7.44 * 10^2 g

Which substance has Hf defined as 0 kJ/mol? H2O (s) Ne (l) O2 (g) CO2 (g)
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

O₂ (g).

Explanation:

  • All elements that found in nature has heat of formation (Hf) equal 0 J/mol.
  • So, the substance that  has heat of formation (Hf) equal 0 J/mol is O₂ (g).
  • H₂O is formed from the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen and has Hf, Also, the solidification of H₂O (s) from H₂O (l) has (Hf).
  • Although, Ne (g) is found in nature and has no Hf, the liquification to form Ne (l) has heat of formation (Hf).
  • CO₂ (g) is formed from the reaction between carbon and oxygen and so has heat of formation (Hf).

Which of the following groups in the periodic
Dimas [21]

Elements of Group 1 and  group 2  in the periodic table contain elements so reactive that they are  never found in the free state

<u>Explanation</u>:

The metals in group 1 of  periodic table consisting of 'alkali metals' which include lithium, potassium, sodium, rubidium, Francium and caesium. They are highly reactive because they have low ionisation energy and larger radius. The group 2 metals consist of 'alkaline earth metals' which include calcium, strontium, barium, beryllium, radium and magnesium.  These alkaline earth metal have +2 oxidation number, hence are highly reactive.

These both group metals are mostly reactive and so are never found in a free state. When they are exposed to air they would immediately react with oxygen. Hence, are stored in oils to avoid oxidation.
