The Valence Electrons of an Atom of Which Element would feel a Greater Effective Nuclear Charge than the Valence?
kumpel [21]
The effective nuclear charge is an innate property of a specific element. It is the pull of force that an electron feels from the nucleus. It is related to the valence electron by the equation: Z* = Z-S, where Z* is the effective nuclear charge, Z is the atomic number and S is the shielding constant.

For the following elements in the choices, these are their values of Z*:

Aluminum - +12.591
Beryllium - +1.912
Hydrogen - +1
Carbon - +4

The effective nuclear charge of Boron is +3. Thus, the answers are  Aluminum and Carbon.

Complete the following single replacement reaction. If they don’t react, just write “NR”
Kipish [7]

Here we have to complete the given single replacement reactions.

The replacement reactions are-

1) Fe (s) + CuCl₂ (aq) → FeCl₂ (aq) + Cu (s)

2) Cu (s) + FeCl₂ (aq) → NA

3) K (s) + NiBr₂ (aq) → NA

4) Ni (s) + KBr (aq) → NiBr₂ (aq) + K (s)

5) Zn (s) + Ca(NO₃)₂ (aq) → Zn(NO₃)₂ (aq)  + Ca (s)

6) Ca (s) + Zn(NO₃)₂ (aq) → NA

The replacement reactions can be explained in light of the redox potential.

The standard reduction potential of the half cells involved in these reactions are:

Fe²⁺ + 2e → Fe (E° = -0.441V); Cu²⁺ + 2e → Cu (E° = 0.674V)

Ni²⁺ + 2e → Ni (E° = -0.23V); Zn²⁺ + 2e → Zn (E° = -0.763V)

We know the half cell reactions in which the standard reduction potentials are positive are allowed.

1) The reaction is possible as Cu²⁺/Cu and Fe/Fe²⁺ standard reduction potentials are positive.

2) The reaction is not possible as Cu/Cu²⁺ and Fe²⁺/Fe standard reduction potentials are negative.

3) The reaction is not possible as Ni²⁺/Ni standard reduction potential is negative.

4) The reaction is possible as Ni/Ni²⁺ standard reduction potential is positive.

5) The reaction is possible as Zn/Zn²⁺ standard reduction potential is positive.

6) The reaction is possible as Zn²⁺/Zn standard reduction potential is negative.

Does anyone know the answer?????​
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

In chemistry, pH (/piːˈeɪtʃ/) (abbr. power of hydrogen or potential for hydrogen) is a scale used to specify how acidic or basic a water-based solution is. Acidic solutions have a lower pH, while basic solutions have a higher pH.

How is the process of mitosis essential to the survival of an organism?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mitosis is crucial to this process. Mitosis is the reason we can grow, heal wounds, and replace damaged cells. Mitosis is also important in organisms which reproduce asexually: this is the only way that these cells can reproduce. This is the one key process that sustains populations of asexual organisms.Jul 22, 2020

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Now that you have the knowledge of the highest specific heat capacity and lowest porosity, which material would you choose to build Rover's new doghouse roof?

Oak has the highest heat capacity; therefore, oak can absorb a lot of heat without raising its temperature. This is good for very hot areas. Concrete has the lowest porosity so water will not leak through its pores and drip into the doghouse. This is good for rainy areas. However, clay is second on both lists and might be a good choice overall for hot and rainy weather conditions. Rover should be happy with this.
