Which element would most likely have a positive electron affinity

1 answer:

7 0

Answer : Electron affinity (Eea) of an atom or molecule can be defined as the amount of energy released or spent when an electron is being added to a neutral atom or molecule in the gaseous state to form a negative ion.

Chlorine is considered to be the element which has highest electron affinity in the modern periodic table.

The general formula is X + $e^{-}$ ----> $X^{-}$ + energy

It is found that nonmetals have more positive Eea than metals.

Electron affinity increases across the group from left to right in the modern periodic table. Elements with small nucleus have high electron affinity.

Sav [38]

Answer:

Final calculated molarity of the unknown acid be lower than the actual concentration.

Explanation:

Volume required unknown acid = V= 25.0 mL

Volume actually measure was more than V that is = V'

V' > V

Molarity of the solution is the moles of compound in 1 Liter solutions.

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Mass of compound}}{\text{Molar mas of compound}\times Volume (L)}$

As we can see from the formula that molarity is inversely proportional to the volume of the solution.

$Molarity\propto \frac{1}{Volume}$

Molarity of solution decreases with increase in volume
Molarity of solution Increases with decrease in volume.

We have added more volume than required which will be increase the volume of solution and the molarity of the solution will lower than the actual value.

stealth61 [152]

Answer: The concentration of nitrogen dioxide at equilibrium is 0.063 M

Explanation:

We are given:

Initial concentration of nitrogen dioxide = 0.0250 M

Initial concentration of dinitrogen tetraoxide = 0.0250 M

For the given chemical equation:

$N_2O_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g)$

Initial: 0.025 0.025

At eqllm: 0.025-x 0.025+2x

The expression of $K_c$ for above equation follows:

$K_c=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}$

We are given:

$K_c=0.630$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$0.630=\frac{(0.025+2x)^2}{(0.025-x)}\\\\x=-0.2013,0.019$

Neglecting the negative value of 'x', because concentration cannot be negative

So, equilibrium concentration of nitrogen dioxide = (0.025 + 2x) = [0.025 + 2(0.019)] = 0.063 M

Hence, the concentration of nitrogen dioxide at equilibrium is 0.063 M

Answer:

Complex System

Explanation:

Given that, a descriptive scientific investigation is one of the three main types of investigation which formulates and quantify the natural phenomenon. This natural phenomenon oftentimes involves Complex System, such as microscopic organisms, thereby, scientists often make observations to understand the interacting parts of this COMPLEX SYSTEM

Hence, the right answer is a COMPLEX SYSTEM
