What does this do to the electrons outside the nucleus in the gaseous atoms

Answer:

Explanation:

As you know, ionization energy is the energy needed to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of atoms in the gaseous state

Right from the start, you can tell that the harder it is to remove an electron from an atom, the higher the ionization energy will be.

Now, the periodic trends for ionization energy can be describe as follows

ionization energy increases as you move from left to right across a period

ionization energy decreases as you go down a group

As you mentioned, if you compare the first ionization energies for oxygen and chlorine using these two trends, you will get conflicting results.

If you follow the way ionization energy increases across period, chlorine would have a higher ionization energy, since it's closer to the noble gases.

On the other hand, if you go by how ionziation energy decreases from top to bottom in a group, oxygen would have higher ionization energy, since it's located in period 2, as compared with period 3 for chlorine.

As it turns out, the trend for groups overpowers the trend for periods. As aresult, oxygen will have a higher ionization energy than chlorine.

This happens because the smaller oxygen atom has its outermost electrons held tighter by the nucleus. By comparison, chlorine's outermost atoms are located further away from the nucleus.

Not only that, but they are screened from the charge of the nucleus better, since they're located on the third energy level.

Oxygen's outermost electrons are screened by

2

electrons, while chlorine's are screened by

8

electrons.

All these factors will make chlorine's outermost electrons a little easier to remove, which implies a smaller ionization energy than that of oxygen.v

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

           CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)

Calculate the amount of CO_{2} dissolved as follows.

             CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}

It is given that K_{CO_{2}} = 0.032 M/atm and P_{CO_{2}} = 1.9 \times 10^{-4} atm.

Hence, [CO_{2}] will be calculated as follows.

           [CO_{2}] = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}          

                           = 0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm

                           = 0.0608 \times 10^{-4}

or,                        = 0.608 \times 10^{-5}

It is given that K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}

As,      K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}

          4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}  

               [H^{+}]^{2} = 2.71 \times 10^{-12}

                      [H^{+}] = 1.64 \times 10^{-6}

Since, we know that pH = -log [H^{+}]

So,                      pH = -log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})

                                 = 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.

Can someone explain this to me, please?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Isotopes have same atomic numbers, no. of protons and no. of electrons. Only their no. of neutrons and atomic mass are changed.

<u>Na - 24:</u>

Atomic Mass = 24

Atomic No. = 11

Hence,

No. of protons in Na-24 = 11

No. of neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number

No. of neutrons = 24 - 11

No. of neutrons = 13

Atomic Number = 11

Hope this helped!

To what volume in millimeters must 50.0 mL of 18.0 M H2SO4 be diluted to obtain 4.35 M H2SO4?
poizon [28]
We know that to relate solutions of with the factors of molarity and volume, we can use the equation: M_{1}  V_{1} = M_{2}  V_{2}

**NOTE: The volume as indicated in this question is defined in L, not mL, so that conversion must be made. However it is 1000 mL = 1 L.

So now we can assign values to these variables. Let us say that the 18 M H_{2}  SO_{4} is the left side of the equation. Then we have:

(18 M)(0.050 L)=(4.35M) V_{2}

We can then solve for V_{2}:

V_{2}= \frac{(18M)(0.05L)}{4.35M} and V_{2} =0.21 L or 210 mL

We now know that the total amount of volume of the 4.35 M solution will be 210 mL. This is assuming that the entirety of the 50 mL of 18 M is used and the rest (160 mL) of water is then added.
