Why are alkali metals more reactive than alkaline earth metals?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Neko [114]3 years ago
5 0
A: It takes more energy to remove two valence electrons from an atom than one valence electron. This makes alkaline Earth metals with their two valence electrons less reactive than alkali metals with their one valence electron.

1. 4.67 kg; 2. 4.8 ×10^5 kg; 3. 0.106 cm^3; 4. 1.7 g/cm^3

<em>Q1. Mass of Hg </em>

Mass = 345 mL × (13.53 g/1 mL) = 4670 g = 4.67 kg

<em>Q2. Mass of Pb </em>

<em>Step 1</em>. Calculate the <em>volume of the Pb</em>.

<em>V = lwh</em> = 6.0 m × 3.5 m × 2.0 m = 42.0 m^3

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>mass of the Pb</em>.

Mass = 42.0 m^3 × (11 340 kg/1 m^3) = 4.8 × 10^5 kg

<em>Q3. Volume of displaced water </em>

Volume of Ag = 0.987 g × (1 cm^3/9.320 g) = 0.106 cm^3

<em>Archimedes</em>: volume of displaced water = volume of Ag = <em>0.106 cm^3</em>

<em>4. Density of metal </em>

<em>Step 1</em>. Convert <em>ounces to grams </em>

Mass = 3.35 oz × (28.35 g/1 oz) = 94.97 g

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>volume in cubic inches </em>

<em>V = lwh</em> = 3.0 in × 2.5 in × 0.45 in = 3.38 in^3

<em>Step 3</em>. Convert <em>cubic inches to cubic centimetres</em><em> </em>

<em>V</em> = 3.38 in^3 × (2.54 cm/1 in)^3 = 55.3 cm^3

<em>Step 4</em>. Calculate the <em>density</em>

ρ = <em>m</em>/<em>V</em> = (94.97 g/55.3 cm^3) = 1.7 g/cm^3 (magnesium?)

If have a volume of 18 L of a gas at a temperature of 272 K and a pressure of 90 atm, what will be the pressure of the gas if ra
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

P₂ ≅ 100 atm (1 sig. fig. based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm)

Explanation:

Given:

P₁ = 90 atm                    P₂ = ?

V₁ = 18 Liters(L)              L₂ = 12 Liters(L)      

=> decrease volume => increase pressure

=> volume ratio that will increase 90 atm is (18L/12L)                                                                  

T₁ = 272 Kelvin(K)          T₂ = 274 Kelvin(K)

=>  increase temperature => increase pressure

=> temperature ratio that will increase 90 atm is (274K/272K)

n₁ = moles = constant    n₂ = n₁ = constant

P₂ = 90 atm x (18L/12L) x (274K/272K) = 135.9926471 atm (calculator)

By rule of sig. figs., the final answer should be rounded to an accuracy equal to the 'measured' data value having the least number of sig. figs. This means P₂ ≅ 100 atm based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm.

What would ne the acceleration in a body moving wit uniform velocity and why​
meriva

Answer: The derivative of a constant term is always 0. So the acceleration of the body would be zero. Hence, the acceleration of a body moving with uniform velocity will always be zero.

Hope this helps :) :)
