A battery contains two metals that have different tendencies to attract electrons. If one is lithium with an electron affinity o

f −3.05, and the other is zinc with an electron affinity of −0.76, describe how the electrons will flow. Then, describe how you could make this an even stronger battery.

Answer:

Electrons will flow from Zinc to Lithium

Explanation:

Since lithium has an electronegativity value of -3.05, this means that it has a very strong attraction to electrons. So a element with less electronegativity (zinc) will end up having its electrons pulled away, since electrons flow from least electronegative to most electronegative.

As for making the battery stronger, we can change it so that we use different metals with an even greater difference in electronegativity.

How many mL of a 0.375 M solution can be made from 35 g of calcium phosphate?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

300 mL

Explanation:

the unit formula of calcium phosphate is Ca3(PO4)2

molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = (3×40 + 2×31 + 8×16) g/mol = 310 g/mol

n = m/M = 35 g/(310 g/mol)

c = n/V

V = n/c = [35 g/(310 g/mol)]/0.375 mol/L

V = 0.30 L = 300 mL

The compound methylamine, CH3NH2, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibrium
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Explanation:

According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory:

  • An acid is a substance that donates H⁺.
  • A base is a substance that accepts H⁺.

When methylamine reacts with water, it behaves as a Brönsted-Lowry base, according to the following reaction.

CH₃NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The basic equilibrium constant (Kb) is:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Which ion has the smallest radius?<br> (1) O2-<br> (2) S2-<br> (3) Se2-<br> (4) Te2-
podryga [215]

Answer:


                  Option-1 (O²⁻) is the correct answer.


Explanation:

                       All given anions contains same charge. So, we can ignore the effect of charge on these anions.


As we know all given compounds belongs to same group (Group 6) in periodic table. And from top to bottom along the group the elements are placed as,


                                                          Oxygen O


                                                          Sulfur S


                                                          Selenium Se


                                                          Tellurium Te


Hence, moving from top to bottom along the group the number of shells increases. And with increase in number of shell the atomic or ionic radii increases. As Oxygen is present at the top of the group, therefore, it has the smallest radius due to less number of shells.
