Answer: F>N>B>Be>Li

Explanation: Electrons are attracted towards the nucleus due to the positive charge present in the nucleus and negative charge on the electrons. This nucleus charge for all the electrons present in different shells of an atom is not same. Inner electrons decreases the nuclear charge felt by the outer shell electrons and its known as shielding effect.

Effective nuclear charge is calculated using the formula:

Z_e_f_f=Z-S

where, Z_e_f_f stands for effective nuclear charge, Z is the atomic number and S is the shielding constant value which is calculated using Slater's rule.

As per Slater's rule, the contribution by the electrons in nth shell is 0.35 and

the contribution by the electrons present in n-1 shell is 0.85 and for rest of the shells like n-2, n-3 etc it is 1.00. It is also 1.00 for the n-1 shell electrons that are present in d and s.

Electron configurations for all the elements we have are:

Li = 1s^22s^1

Be = 1s^22s^2

B = 1s^22s^22p^1

N = 1s^22s^22p^3

F = 1s^22s^22p^5

The number of inner shell electrons is equal for all these elements so for the valence electrons the shielding constant would almost be same.

So, effective nuclear charge will be greater for the element to which the atomic number is higher.

The order of atomic numbers is F>N>B>Be>Li . So, the highest to lowest order of effective nuclear charge will also be F>N>B>Be>Li .

1.The effective nuclear charge (Zeff or Z*) is the net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom. The term “effective” is used because the shielding effect of negatively charged electrons prevents higher orbital electrons from experiencing the full nuclear charge.

Equation:  Zeff = Z – S

2.where Z is the number of protons  

3. S is the number of electrons between the nucleus and the electron in question.

Decreasing order  effective nuclear charge:

F>N>B>Be>Li

A 3.31-g sample of lead nitrate, Pb(NO3)2, molar mass = 331 g/mol, is heated in an evacuated cylinder with a volume of 2.53 L. T
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder

Explanation:

1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ descomposes in 4 moles of NO2 and 1 mole of O2. That is 1 mole descomposes in 5 moles of gas.

To find the pressure of the cylinder, we need to find moles of gas produced, and using general gas law we can determine the pressure of the gas:

<em>Moles Pb(NO₃)₂ and moles of gas:</em>

3.31g * (1mol / 331g) = 0.01 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂.

That means moles of gas produced is 0.05 moles.

<em>Pressure of the gas:</em>

Using PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

<em>Where P is pressure (Incognite)</em>

<em>V is volume (2.53L)</em>

<em>R is gas constant (0.082atmL/molK)</em>

<em>T is absolute temperature (300K)</em>

And n are moles of gas (0.05 moles)

P = 0.05mol*0.082atmL/molK*300K / 2.53L

P = 0.486atm is the pressure of the cylinder

An empty erlenmeyer flask weighs 241.3 g. when filled with water (d = 1.00 g/cm3), the flask and its contents weigh 489.1 g. wha
g100num [7]

 

The volume of the flask would simply be equal to the volume of the water. And the mass of the water would be the difference after and before weigh.

mass of water = 489.1 g – 241.3 g

mass of water = 247.8 g

 

Therefore the volume of water (which is also the volume of the flask) is:

volume = 247.8 g / (1.00 g/cm^3)

volume = 247.8 cm^3

 

The total mass of the flash when filled with chloroform would be:

total mass with chloroform = 241.3 g + 247.8 cm^3 (1.48 g/cm3)

total mass with chloroform = 608.04 g

 

 

Answers:

volume = 247.8 cm^3

total mass with chloroform = 608.04 g
