Answer:

Option D. fluorine-18

Explanation:

The attached photo gives the explanation.

In the attached photo, A zX represent the atom that will undergo beta decay to produce oxygen–18.

After the calculation, A zX was found to be fluorine–18.

why is it harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon? to put it another way, why are the outermost electrons of
Verizon [17]

It is harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon because the size of the nuclear charge in fluorine is larger than that of carbon.

The energy required to remove an electron from an atom is called ionization energy.

The ionization energy largely depends on the size of the nuclear charge. The larger the size of the nuclear charge, the higher the ionization energy because it will be more difficult to remove an electron from the atom owing to increased electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and orbital electrons.

Since fluorine has a higher size of the nuclear charge than carbon. More energy is required to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon leading to the observation that;  it is harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon.

how many moles of iron will be produced from 6.20 moles of carbon monoxide reacting with excess iron (III) oxide (FeO3) to produ
Gelneren [198K]

0.20 moles of iron will be formed in the reaction.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between iron (iii) oxide and carbon monoxide to form Fe is to be known first.

the balanced reaction is :

Fe2O3 + 3CO⇒ 2 Fe + 3 CO2

so from the data given the number of moles of carbon monoxide can be known:

3 moles of CO reacted with Fe2O3 to form 2 moles of iron in the reaction.

Number of moles of CO is 6.20 moles

11.6 gm of iron is formed

so the number of moles of iron formed is calculated as

n = mass of iron ÷ atomic weight of iron

  = 11.6 ÷ 55.84

  = 0.20 moles of iron will be formed when 11.6 gram of iron is produced.

The elements silicon (atomic number 14) and chlorine (atomic number 17) are both in Period 3. Which is the more reactive element
Svetlanka [38]

Answer;

-Chlorine is more reactive than silicon

Explanation;

-As you move across a period, the nuclear charge will increase; the number of energy levels will stay the same, so there is a stronger and stronger attraction for the electrons.

-The electrons are being held more tightly as you move across a period. It becomes more and more difficult to lose electrons and consequently the reactivity of non metals increases as you go from left to right across the periodic table; Therefore; chlorine is more reactive than silicon.

What is/are the product(s) of a neutralization reaction of a carboxylic acid? View Available Hint(s) What is/are the product(s)
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

A carboxylate salt and water

Explanation:

A carboxylic acid is an organic compound that has general formula RCOOH, where R is a carbon chain. Because it's an acid, the neutralization will happen when it reacts with a base, such as NaOH.

When this reaction occurs, the base will dissociate in Na⁺ and OH⁻, and the acid will ionize in RCOO⁻ and H⁺, so the products will be RCOO⁻Na⁺ (a carboxylate salt) and H₂O (water).
