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.

The composition of a liquid-phase reaction 2A - B was monitored spectrophotometrically. The following data was obtained: t/min 0
o-na [289]

Answer:

1) The order of the reaction is of FIRST ORDER

2)   Rate constant k = 5.667 × 10 ⁻⁴

Explanation:

From the given information:

The composition of a liquid-phase reaction 2A - B was monitored spectrophotometrically.

liquid-phase reaction 2A - B signifies that the reaction is of FIRST ORDER where the rate of this reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of A.

The following data was obtained:

t/min                    0         10         20          30             40          ∞

conc B/(mol/L)    0       0.089    0.153     0.200       0.230    0.312

For  a first order reaction:

K = \dfrac{1}{t} \ In ( \dfrac{C_{\infty} - C_o}{C_{\infty} - C_t})

where :

K = proportionality  constant or the rate constant for the specific reaction rate

t = time of reaction

C_o = initial concentration at time t

C _{\infty} = final concentration at time t

C_t = concentration at time t

To start with the value of t when t = 10 mins

K_1 = \dfrac{1}{10} \ In ( \dfrac{0.312 - 0}{0.312 - 0.089})

K_1 = \dfrac{1}{10} \ In ( \dfrac{0.312 }{0.223})

K_1 =0.03358 \  min^{-1}

K_1 \simeq 0.034 \  min^{-1}

When t = 20

K_2= \dfrac{1}{20} \ In ( \dfrac{0.312 - 0}{0.312 - 0.153})

K_2= 0.05 \times  \ In ( 1.9623)

K_2=0.03371 \ min^{-1}

K_2 \simeq 0.034 \ min^{-1}

When t = 30

K_3= \dfrac{1}{30} \ In ( \dfrac{0.312 - 0}{0.312 - 0.200})

K_3= 0.0333 \times  \ In ( \dfrac{0.312}{0.112})

K_3= 0.0333 \times  \ 1.0245

K_3 = 0.03412 \ min^{-1}

K_3 = 0.034 \ min^{-1}

When t = 40

K_4= \dfrac{1}{40} \ In ( \dfrac{0.312 - 0}{0.312 - 0.230})

K_4=0.025 \times  \ In ( \dfrac{0.312}{0.082})

K_4=0.025 \times  \ In ( 3.8048)

K_4=0.03340 \ min^{-1}

We can see that at the different time rates, the rate constant of k_1, k_2, k_3, and k_4 all have similar constant values

As such :

Rate constant k = 0.034 min⁻¹

Converting it to seconds ; we have :

60 seconds = 1 min

∴

0.034 min⁻¹ =(0.034/60) seconds

= 5.667 × 10 ⁻⁴ seconds

Rate constant k = 5.667 × 10 ⁻⁴

Which characteristics affect ocean water’s temperature? Check all that apply. depth location mass salinity waves
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Depth and location affect ocean water’s temperature.

Explanation:

The main source of heat for the oceans is solar radiation. That is, water is basically heated by the radiation of the Sun, which transmits energy to the surface. The ocean absorbs this energy and stores it. Seawater has high caloric capacity. This means that more energy and more time is needed to change or increase the water temperature, compared to the air temperature. Similarly, once the ocean heats up, it takes a long time for the water to completely release or lose that heat.

The temperature decreases to greater depth, because the amount of solar radiation is reduced. On the contrary, it is greater where there is greater energy or heat content.

The closer a place is to the equator, the solar energy will affect more vertically and with more intensity on it, so the warmer the temperatures will be. The further that point of the equator is found, the solar energy will reach it with a smaller angle. And if the point is near the poles, the sun's rays will arrive at a very small angle. This causes the temperature of the water of the oceans to vary depending on the earth's latitude, being higher in areas close to the equator and the tropics, and colder the closer to the poles or the further away from the temperate zones.
